French political scientist Olivier Roy said, the Taliban are not going to ban the cultivation of opium in Afghanistan, which will lead to the emergence of a narco-state. In an interview with the France Inter radio station, Roy, who is also the scientific adviser of the Middle East Directions programme at the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies in Italy, said: "We find ourselves in the situation we were in the 90s, with the phenomena of the brutal advance of the Taliban. The reason is simple: the army is not fighting, and the Taliban make agreements with the local authorities.

"They are not going to attack the Americans, they are going to let them go quietly, and then they are going to take power, which they will not share," Roy said it will be a culture shock the for Taliban in a new Kabul.

Further, it is added: "They already did it 25 years ago, they imposed Sharia law, but Afghanistan has changed a lot in 25 years, especially the city of Kabul. It's a very westernized city where people are very connected to the Internet. There is going to be a considerable culture shock. In Kabul, they will find themselves in front of a whole new world. Either they will be more flexible than 25 years ago, or they will come back and do what they already have tried to do 25 years ago."
