Rumor has it that Ashraf Ghani is returning to Afghanistan. The return of politicians to Afghanistan is not new and has happened in the past.
Secondly, this rumor is not ruled out and will become a political litmus test in Afghanistan. Because a mono-ethnic system and ideological Islam are unacceptable in Afghanistan. In this new era, Ghani will adopt new methods because he considered several questions to be fundamental.
First, another mono-ethnic system in Afghanistan can no longer meet the political and social needs of the country. Neither the people nor the countries of the world will cooperate.
Second, Ghani learned that without the international and Islamic community, Afghanistan would be isolated, which is not in its interests.
Thirdly, Islamic extremists, including Hekmatyar, are aware of the fact that in an ethnic and tribal country, neither party Islam nor group Islam is possible, nor is democracy possible if it is a mixture of both.
The Taliban regime is strong evidence that a free Afghanistan will never fall under the yoke of a tyrannical and dictatorial regime. Otherwise, the war will continue until the collapse of Afghanistan by international political forces.
Thirdly, the diatonic method should be used with neighbors so that both the sheep are targets and the wolves are fed.
There is no doubt that Ghani's presidency was an absolutely failed political and economic regime, but the folk wisdom "that same old shoemaker" can come true, because the people with all the corruption, bribery, selfishness, and ethnocentrism of Ghani, who was very shameful, everything so came to the conclusion, that his time was better in every way, and that's a fact.
The interesting thing is that the United States will cooperate in this return, and this cooperation of President Biden proves to the world that the United States was not defeated and that this was a political deal between Trump and the Taliban, not the Afghan government. It is at this point that the Taliban's claims that they have defeated the United States fade away. I wrote before this fact that the Taliban came to power as a result of a deal, not a victory over the US.
The Silk Road program will become widespread and Pakistan will play a significant role in this. People learn from hard experiences and mistakes, and Ghani is no exception to this principle at this stage in Afghanistan's history.
