Hmm, I opened the Singapore Straits Times and found a perspective on Afghanistan that never occurred to me. Suddenly Biden sending Vice-President Harris to Asia, right now, makes a whole lot of sense.

Here's the headline:

"Power Play

As the US withdraws from Afghanistan, China is left to deal with the fallout.

Beijing is in the difficult position of having to deal with an unstable Afghanistan that could lead to conflict in its backyard, as well as an America that is no longer encumbered by an intractable war."

Indi - I would like to hear your thoughts.
