Hardcover. Condizione: New. The fall of Kabul to the Taliban is one of the most catastrophic events of the 21st century. The images of people running to cling on to aircraft taking off from Kabul and falling to death showed their desperation to escape from Taliban rule. It should haunt the conscience of the international community that ignored and thereby sacrificed the freedom of Afghan citizens to further their own perceived narrow geopolitical objectives. This book analyses the circumstances that enabled the Taliban to stage a comeback, the suffering of the people and the new Great Game being played in Afghanistan by its neighbours and the Great Powers. Authors from India, Pakistan and Afghanistan present their views on this tragic development. This book is a valuable asset for those who wish to gain a clear picture of the recent developments that overwhelmed Afghanistan and the present situation there.
