The arrest of Afghan citizen Nasir Tuheedi in the United States serves as a glaring testament to the failures of the interim Afghan Taliban government.
Despite its promises, the Taliban has been unable to curb extremist ideologies, such as those espoused by ISIS.
Tuheedi's detention while on temporary parole in the U.S. raises significant security concerns and underscores the Taliban's ineffectiveness in combating terrorism. His case has drawn attention to the broader issues of illegal Afghan migrants facing deportation from countries like Pakistan, Iran, Germany, and Austria.
The involvement of Afghan nationals in terrorist activities, whether in Pakistan or the U.S., highlights the unchecked influence of terrorist groups thriving under the current Taliban regime.
The Taliban's leniency towards these groups has allowed terrorism to extend beyond Afghanistan's borders, as evidenced by the thwarted plot in the U.S.
Tuheedi's arrest in connection with a terrorist conspiracy clearly indicates that Afghanistan has become a safe haven for terrorists, operating freely under the Taliban's watch. His radical beliefs, rooted in an environment where terrorist organizations operate unimpeded, exemplify the perilous landscape in Afghanistan today.
The ongoing situation necessitates decisive action against the bases of the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and the Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP) to safeguard international peace and security. The inability of the Taliban to prevent such incidents emphasizes the urgent need for a reassessment of strategies to combat terrorism emanating from Afghanistan.
