Afghanistan is an economically devastated pariah state. China should extend a helping hand and get Afghanistan back on their feet by economically and politically helping them. And when China does help them in this way, the Taliban will know what to do when they see a bunch of Uyghur jihadists trying to make their way to Xinjiang.
Pretty much. The best model for anti terrorism is the development of Xinjiang, full stop. Generally speaking people don’t like being terrorists and would much rather live regular lives, so if you stabilize a region and give them that option they will choose it.
Fair, it’s a totally different situation, but I think that if nothing else cooperation and development remains provably the best path to stabilization and therefore reducing radicalization. Just imagine fighters coming home from fighting in Syria to find out that the rest of their family is making twice as much as they are while working half as hard, how many do you think will just want to settle down?
