That title grammars wrong.
Edit: The author fucking studied at Oxford, too!
Is it? It reads a little awkward, and it’s not how I’d have phrased it, but I think it’s fine
It should be “Taliban plans” or “Taliban says it plans”.
I think its almost always the editor that’s charged with creating titles.
Only superpower left who hasn’t tried to invade them at some point in time.
China has invaded Afghanistan multiple times since the Han Dynasty in the BCs.
Just softening them up for 2027
They will when the Taliban defaults on their debt to them. Then they discover why you don’t invade Afghanistan.
You get bogged down in tribal wars and spend 20 years worth of time and treasure.
Everyone does it eventually
You could say it’s a trail by fire of a superpower.
China knows they will default. This is about control.

Critical support for our Taliban comrades, clearly /s
I’m sure this will end well for all parties involved.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
BEIJING, Oct 19 (Reuters) - The Taliban administration wants to formally join Chinese President Xi Jinping’s huge ‘Belt and Road’ infrastructure initiative and will send a technical team to China for talks, Afghanistan’s acting commerce minister said on Thursday.
The Pakistan “economic corridor” refers to the huge flagship section of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in Afghanistan’s neighbour.
Azizi said the administration would also send a technical team to China to enable it to “better understand” the issues standing in the way of it joining the initiative, but did not elaborate on what was holding Afghanistan back.
Several Chinese companies already operate there, including the Metallurgical Corp. of China Ltd (MCC) which has held talks with the Taliban administration, as well as the previous Western-backed government, over plans for a potentially huge copper mine.
The Islamic State militant group has targeted foreign embassies and a hotel popular with Chinese investors in Kabul.
Afghanistan and 34 other countries agreed to work together on the digital economy and green development on the sidelines of the Belt and Road Forum on Wednesday.

Yeah. That’ll end well.
Good luck buddy.
