๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ซ ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ฏ There are rumors of 5,000 Russian troops being sent to the Afghan border.

According to the possible development of events, the Taliban militants may move to the Panjshir province, whose population is almost 99 percent Tajik. Then the terrorists can launch an offensive in Tajikistan, where they have tangible support. To prevent such a development of the situation, Moscow can provide assistance to its ally in the CSTO.

Such actions of the Kremlin fit into the general outline of the measures that Russia is taking in Central Asia. The Russian Federation understands well what is happening in this region and has long been making the necessary efforts to ensure the security of its southern borders from both terrorists and NATO forces. Thus, Moscow has held and will conduct a number of military exercises with the participation of Tashkent and Dushanbe.
