GEOPOLITICAL CONTEXT
Narrative divergences reflect geostratégic repositioning post-Western withdrawal from Afghanistan. European powers (France, Germany) maintain a framework delegitimizing the Taliban while avoiding analysis of new regional balances, revealing their geopolitical marginalization. Regional actors (Pakistan, Singapore) privilege technocratic depoliticization to preserve their interests in a reconfigured geostratégic environment where traditional power relations are questioned. This narrative fragmentation illustrates the absence of international consensus on post-Western regional governance.
