A Taliban controlled Afghanistan will be a poor and insignificant Afghanistan. A compromise needs to be found. Only in such a scenario, Afghanistan would be able to be an ally of Turkey and buy Turkish equipment.

I am not well versed in Afghan politics, or the influence of the countries it's bordering. I do not imagine that Iran is interested in a strong/stable Afghanistan. Am I wrong.

Fighting intensity is increasing while nobody is making any significant gains - the conflict is in a deadlock and the US isn't much involved, so things are probably not going to change. Best solution is both sides compromising - Turkey is playing an active role in this regard.

Of course not. Many conflicting interests between Iran, India and Pakistan. Hopefully a solution is found to entrench the country in the Turkey-Pakistan camp. During the Karabakh war, Afghanistan was one of the most vocal supporters of Azerbaijan. Azeri aircrafts even came to Afghanistan a couple of times, probably to get different kind of ammunitions.

It would be great if something like that would happen but not sure if the talibans are people of diplomacy and power sharing, maybe you know better and have more reason for to believe that such scenario happens. And also by the news i read current goverment does not radiate with confideliaty and competence, maybe i am wrong,. Give us possible outcome beside continouing civil war?
