flag China, Pakistan, and Afghanistan agree to extend CPEC into Afghanistan, raising regional tensions.

flag China, Pakistan, and Afghanistan have agreed to extend the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor into Afghanistan, a move that could reshape regional dynamics. flag While details on routes, funding, and timelines remain unclear, the expansion raises concerns for India, which opposes CPEC due to its passage through disputed territory. flag Pakistan’s push for Chinese investment is driving plans to strike Taliban-aligned militant groups in Afghanistan, risking conflict with the Afghan government. flag China has conditioned its support on security guarantees, but Afghanistan has not assured it will curb all militant activity. flag Meanwhile, the U.S. has pledged humanitarian aid to Afghanistan without formal recognition, and the Taliban have ruled out cooperation on counter-IS efforts. flag The situation underscores growing regional tensions amid competing strategic interests.
