Abstract

The return to power of the Taliban regime in Afghanistan in August 2021 has caused deep concerns in the international community based on its experience as government in the period 1996-2001 and for its alliance with terrorist organizations. After the military intervention led by the United States as a result of the 9/11 attacks, perpetrated by Al-Qaeda, the Taliban took refuge strategically without giving up their aspirations for power achieved. It took twenty years of resistance for his return to government, taking advantage of the accelerated withdrawal process of the US troops announced by Trump and continued by Biden. In this context of uncertainty and expectation, some western countries have suspended cooperation projects that they had until then with Afghanistan, while some others such as China and Russia have sought incipient channels of rapprochement. This paper seeks to address how the experience of the Taliban government in the past has generated new concerns in the international community after its return to power, to the point of freeze the aid projects pending favorable winks.
