- 69% of Afghan people chose India as Afghanistan's 'best friend' country, according to a recent survey. A Brussels-based news website EU Reporter said that in order to gain insight into the people of Afghanistan, a survey was conducted which gathered an understanding of the common people's assessment of their past, current scenario, and their future aspirations. According to the survey, the data showed that more than 67 per cent of Afghan people believe that the mis-timed and mismanaged exit by the United States gave Pakistan and China the opportunity to encourage the Taliban to take over Kabul.
A report:
- India and Afghanistan have very ancient historic and cultural ties. Despite all the efforts of Pakistan, relations between two countries at the people-to-people level have remained good, surviving Taliban rule in the 1990s and since August last year.
- India also has strong stakes and strategic interests in Afghanistan. India has been the largest donor in Afghanistan among the countries in the region, doling out about 3 billion dollar. India is the fifth largest donor for Afghanistan in the world.
- India's help to Afghanistan has been diverse, ranging from building infrastructure to sending teams of medical staff and food.
