It's as if every empire/super power was doomed to end up having a sudden urge to dump treasures in that bonfire called afghanistan
But more seriously, when I think china and afghanistan, I don't think "peacekeeping mission"
But rather, fentanyl - heroin
Not sure if china is eyeing on the poppy fields too, as america was, because they don't give a shit about black budgets, they can have all the budgets they want, for any purpose, legal or otherwise, they don't have a congress telling them it's not morally or legally or fiscally appropriate, they have lots of problems like every other country but this isn't one of them
So I guess this has more to do with natural resources, minerals, fossil fuel, rare earth, youNameIt
It definitely has nothing to do with moral or humanitarian reasons, that's not their style to even pretend the contrary
