they didnt
and it depends on which war you mean
the one that happened during cold war
or the one rn
Then never-ending war
aah
yeah, Pakis didnt start that
US did, by invading Afghanistan after 9/11
Oh
Taliban was in charge there
Taliban came to power after the war with the soviets
🤔 seems reasonable
they were known as Mujahideen
and they were backed by US
*whole lotta cold war shit*
Damn
even communist china supported them
Wait why
```The Soviet Union and the Chinese werent allies during the Soviet- Afghan war, (1979- 1988/9). A period known as the ‘Sino- Soviet Split’ had occurred in the late 1960s which completely derailed their ideological partnership.```
```Mao and the leaders of China believed that the Soviets, under the leadership of Brezhnev had begun to ‘Capitalise’ Marxism. They saw a relaxation of economic control and an increasingly expansionist and ‘imperialist’ USSR.```
```During the Cold War, the Soviets had also coveted India very successfully- counter to the US coveting Pakistan. The Indians received huge amounts of Soviet hardware and support, much in defiance of China whom even to this day rivals India for geographical dominance. Again, this worsened Chinese- USSR relations.```
```China saw the invasion of Afghanistan as yet another demonstration of the Soviet’s growing Imperialism. Yes they invaded to support a fellow Communist government, but it was seen mainly as the Soviets attempting to expand their borders southwards, and by sending in their own soldiers and tanks rather than ‘advisors’ as in the case of Korea or Vietnam, it meant that they were expanding their jurisdiction.```
and ofcourse Pakistani and US spec-ops were also included
Thats harsh but to protect allies
my dad was spetsnaz in there
fighting alongside the soviets
they saw alot of fucked up shit in there
and fought a few times with Pakistanis
who "offically" werent part of the war
And thats why all this stuff is happening today correct
well kinda
it has had a big effect on todays afghanistan
because of that war, the Taliban rose to power
Damn

its up to you to provide evidence for your counter claim
