Russia is in ongoing discussions with the new Taliban government and at the moment it is Taliban forces that are guarding the Russian embassy. Russia made the statement today that they are not worried for their Central Asian Allies at the moment as the Taliban have assured them "We have long been in talks with the Taliban on the prospects for development after their capture of power and they have repeatedly confirmed that they have no extraterritorial ambition, they learned the lessons of 2000."
With that said the Russians also stated that the situation was obviously fluid and they'll keep an eye on things.
Meanwhile in the Panjshir Province, Amrullah Saleh, a Vice President of Afghanistan and Ahmad Massoud, the son of the famous "Lion of Panjshir" Ahmad Shah Massoud, are planning on bringing together all of the anti-Taliban leaders and their forces here where the Resistance is apparently in still control of significant portions of the area.
Also Hamas has sent their congratulations to their Muslim brothers in the Taliban for throwing off the American occupiers of their land.
“Today Taliban is victorious after it used to be accused of backwardness and terrorism. Now, the Taliban is more clever and more realistic. It has faced America and its agents, refusing half-solutions with them. The Taliban was not deceived by the slogans of democracy and elections and fake promises. This is a lesson for all oppressed people.”
A Hamas delegation recently met with a Taliban one in Doha, Qatar and they even posed for a photo op together and the Taliban representatives congratulated Hamas on their "victory" in the eleven day War they had with Israel earlier in the year.
