News like these are anti-US propaganda and self-consolation. I don't think the #CCP politburo is celebrating this lol, they're just tryna manipulate public opinions against US.

US withdrawal from AFG is probably a risky strategic gamble. AFG neighbours are no longer free riders.
AFG neighbours such as China, Russia and Iran need to deal with the national security threats posed by Taliban's soft power (#islamism) and hard power (#jihadism). Taliban is never trustable, and they were one of the supporters of #Xinjiang islamist militants, according to China.
Apparently, China took down the government study as Taliban seizes power in Afghanistan. Here's the archive: web.archive.org/web/2021073018…

Correction: China did not take down the study. I was trying to access the webpage using a US VPN server. The study is accessible for Internet users from Singapore, at least.
