The Indian think tank Observer Research Foundation (ORF) said in analyzing the results of the eighth meeting in the Moscow format that the inability of the current countries to reach a joint statement indicates the continuation of the political and security divisions between the regional actors in Afghanistan. The think tank emphasized that while Russia has expanded its relations with the Taliban government in the political, security and economic spheres, the differences between Kabul and Islamabad and the security concerns of the neighbors continue to prevent the formation of a common regional approach to Afghanistan. The eighth meeting in the Moscow format on Afghanistan, which took place in Russia with the participation of representatives of the countries of the region, ended without the publication of a joint statement, unlike previous years; This is seen by many observers as a sign that the process of reaching a regional consensus on Afghanistan's future is becoming more difficult.
