There is growing evidence Russia and Iran are arming the Taliban under the guise of fighting Daesh as the conflict becomes a stalemate. Should the US respond by negotiating a role for the Taliban in Afghanistan or by increasing our troop presence?
Russia officially denies arming, financing, or providing any material support for the Taliban, but acknowledges that it has an intelligence-sharing relationship with the Taliban as part of its efforts to defeat Daesh cells in Afghanistan. The top US general in Afghanistan has described the War in Afghanistan as a stalemate and is expected to request more troops soon.
