New York Times: China Offers the Taliban a Warm Welcome While Urging Peace Talks 

China offered a high-profile public stage to the Taliban on Wednesday, declaring that the group rapidly retaking large parts of Afghanistan would play “an important role in the process of peaceful reconciliation and reconstruction” of the country. 

Chinese officials began two days of talks with a delegation of Taliban leaders in Tianjin, a coastal city in northeastern China, significantly raising the group’s international stature after steady military gains that have taken advantage of the withdrawal of American and NATO combat forces. 

China’s foreign minister, Wang Yi, called the Taliban “a pivotal military and political force,” but urged their leaders “to hold high the banner of peace talks,” according to a statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

  2. I hope China invests billions in Afghanistan, only to see their efforts destroyed by the Muslim barbarians. Speaking of which, I hope Russia gets sucked into yet another never-ending war with these same barbarians. Couldn't happen to two nicer countries. We can hope.

    Meanwhile the US has the likes Merrick Garland. He is a craven little fella. Reminds of GrĂ­ma Wormtongue.
