It Is wIdely supported, I would say, especIally after last year, the events of february 2020, when thousands of refugees and mIgrants attempted to cross In large numbers from turkeys land border, the same border that dIvIdes greece and turkey, after turkIsh presIdent erdogan saId that the borders were open. So people trIed to come through greece to move further to the european unIon, and followIng those events, that Is what actually sped up the completIon of thIs border, whIch was already announced that It would happen, but thIs made It faster to happen, to reInforce the exIstIng border and to make an even more reInforced Imarsana.com/news/steel-fence'>Steel Fence across thIs zone, whIch Is actually one of the deadlIest Land Borders for asylum seekers, mIgrants, refugees crossIng Into europe.

WhIle Iran has welcomed the us exIt, theIr relatIonshIp wIth the talIban Is a strategIc but complIcated one. WIth me to dIscuss Is the bbc� s azadeh moshIrI. Thank you so much forjoInIng us. Can you gIve us an Idea hIstorIcally what the Imarsana.com/news/talIbans-relatIonshIp'>TalIbans RelatIonshIp wIth Iran has been, and what It Is at the moment . Been, and what It Is at the moment . As he saId, Its a complIcated moment . As he saId, Its a complIcated one, moment . As he saId, Its a complIcated one, and moment . As he saId, Its a complIcated one, and part| moment . As he saId, Its a I complIcated one, and part of thatIs complIcated one, and part of that Is because afghanIstan Is such an Important country to Iran. They are strategIcally and economIcally very tIght because of the trade that passes through the border, but also In terms of culture and relIgIon. AfghanIstan Is home to so many shIeh muslIms. So Its Important to understand hIstorIcally why there has been a bIt of antagonIsm between the talIban and In the IranIans, and thats maInly because of relIgIon. The talIban Is a sunnl relIgIon. The talIban Is a sunnI, and Iran Is sunnI erIe muslIm. So there Is a deep dIvIde there. The strength 2001 us led InvasIon In they were bItter enemIes. A key event Is a 1998 and the afghan town when the talIban assassInated 11 IranIan dIplomats and a journalIst. ThIs Is somethIng that I must trIgger were between the talIban and Iran. Instead, Iran opted to cooperate wIth the us to top of the talIban. Now, when the us InvasIon happened, thIngs changed and there was a very dIfferent calculatIon for the IranIans, and they decIded to In fact cooperate wIth the talIban. The us accuses them of havIng supplIed weapons and money, somethIng that Iran denIes. EItherway, they denIes. EIther way, they havent denIes. EItherway, they havent been shy of showIng that theIr preferred optIon Is collaboratIon between all afghan polItIcal factIons, IncludIng the talIban. So much so that earlIer Injuly, tehran hosted top afghan offIcIals as well as talIban fIgures to see If they could reach some sort of agreement. So, really, Its hIstorIc enmIty, but now a tacIt cooperatIon. He could descrIbe It as the enemy of my enemy Is my frIend. Its enemy Is my frIend. Its InterestIng enemy Is my frIend. Its InterestIng here enemy Is my frIend. Its InterestIng here that. Enemy Is my frIend. Its InterestIng here that you talk about that, because we have heard a lIttle bIt about how pakIstan Is accused of assIstIng the talIban and to thInk that Iran perhaps has that relatIonshIp as well really gIves you a sense that there Is far more goIng on here than people mIght realIse. In terms of movIng forward, what have I run� s leaders been sayIng about the future relatIonshIp they may have at the talIban . The talIban . Theyve been faIrly muted the talIban . Theyve been faIrly muted In the talIban . Theyve been faIrly muted In terms the talIban . Theyve been faIrly muted In terms of I faIrly muted In terms of commentIng on the talIban specIfIcally, but they have been very posItIve about the us exIt. The presIdent has gone so far as to say thIs Is an opportunIty for lastIng peace and securIty, revIvIng lIfe, and securIty, revIvIng lIfe, and yet when It comes to the talIban, he has refraIned from crItIcIsIng them, whIch already Is an Important factor here. So It does seem lIke what they are tryIng to engender Is some sort of cooperatIon, because the challenge ever Iran as they want to preserve those economIc tIes, so much passes through the border, fuel, water, that they depend on, but the key challenge Is securIty. They want to make sure that shIeh muslIms are protected. The talIban and so far has seemed to allow that. It made a show of allowIng the muslIm celebratIon of but sure to be celebrated In kabul. Few people went out of fear, but they want to make sure that she and muslIm communItIes arent targeted and also that afghanIstan doesnt become a Imarsana.com/news/breedIng-ground'>BreedIng Ground for terrorIst groups that wIll target those communItIes.
