When the Taliban was ruling Afghanistan, they had banned the cultivation of opium poppy. But the NATO-backed puppets not only removed the ban, but also introduced the cultivation to more areas as well. A lot of this opium is going to end up in Russia, in the form of Heroin. Putin is looking at various options to reduce the shipment of opium from Afghanistan.
Until Afghanistan will not be an industry and people will not be able to earn money the problem with the poppy cultivation will not be solved.
so Taliban somehow managed to solve the problem,but democratic US unable to do so?
or them bombing their own infrastructure (tunnels) is somehow helping to restore peace and improve
the living standards of afgani people?
