Talk:Foreign relations of Afghanistan

Iran relations
A recent link to an LA Times article was referred to at the end of the Afghanistan-Iran relations section. Although it states the United States current accusations, the writeup of the data seems contrived, especially with the addition that Iran may be a potential "destroyer" of Afghanistan despite their open support. Whether the accusations are factual or not, it is from the point of view of the United States and the neutrality of the final statement is questionable, and also seems to predicate a problem that may or may not be real. I would like to reword or remove this edit but I'm not sure what the appropriate thing to do is, as it is a potentially sensitive issue.69.163.48.140 (talk) 09:01, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Josiah Harlan
The sentences on Josiah Harlan aren't worded well. For starters, his name is not mentioned and he is referred to as a "recorded person" Reliefappearance (talk) 19:06, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Update please
This needs updating - it still refers to the Taliban regime. -- April

I have started by removing the reference to a dispute re UN representation, updating the initial overview, changing the general lay-out and adding a bit about German Afghani relationship. I also removed a reference re Kashmir and joint land border India/Afghanistan as I felt this is just a start to have a major discussion re rights and wrongs of Kashmir +/- occupations etc, which I do not think this particular article shoudl be used for. I hope this can generally be agreed upon Refdoc 20:21, 6 Jul 2004 (UTC)

IRA foreign relations table
Should the section listing the former foreign relations of the Islamic Republic not be removed? On one hand, it can serve as a template for the (maybe not so) soon-to-be relations in the future, but on the other hand it is outdated information. I believe a compromise could remove any states with which there aren't any relations at all, while keeping the ones that have been unofficially cooperating with the new government through their embassies in Kabul and elsewhere, e.g. the United States, Pakistan, Russia, etc. Any other opinions would be nevertheless appreciated.180app (talk) 19:18, 21 November 2021 (UTC)
