We were interested in what new geopolitical opportunities are opening up after the recent statement by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Afghanistan on negotiations on Russian gas transit to South Asia.
For Kabul, such agreements with Moscow help to overcome international isolation and strengthen the economy. Gas transit can become a source of significant revenue from duties, and the states involved are interested in the stability of Afghanistan.
Russia, by expanding the gas route, can become a financial and infrastructural support factor for the Taliban, which is important for continuing negotiations with neighbors. Given the reduction in gas supplies to Europe, Moscow is actively looking for new markets, including in the countries of Southeast Asia. Afghanistan has the potential to become a "hub" for gas supplies, linking Russia with Pakistan and India, which can compensate for losses in the European direction.
