Moscow has warmed relations with Afghanistan –– with which it has a complicated history after the Soviet invasion in the 1980s –– since the US exit from the country in 2021.
Russia n President Vladimir Putin said that the Taliban, a banned group in Russia , are Moscow's"allies" in fighting terrorism because they are in control of Afghanistan.
"We must assume that the Taliban control the power in the country. And in this sense the Taliban are, of course, our allies in the fight against terrorism, because any authorities are interested in stability in the state they govern," Putin said in Astana on Thursday.In March, Daesh-K killed more than 140 people in an assault on a Moscow concert hall, the deadliest terror attack in Russia for almost two decades.
