Professor Yang Shu said that after the withdrawal of the United States and its Western allies, one of China's interests in Afghanistan will be to develop energy cooperation. He said that according to the current situation, although Afghanistan will fall into chaos without the whole country, at least a considerable part of the local situation will be turbulent. In this situation, one of China's interests in Afghanistan is to build power plants. If the situation in Kabul continues to be chaotic, the project may be suspended.

In addition, some small-scale private investment and business activities are bound to be affected. Therefore, the current core issue is to push the negotiation between the Taliban and the government, but this is a very difficult topic.

The participation of Afghan representatives in the SCO, especially their contacts with the Chinese foreign minister, will help the Afghan government to negotiate with the Taliban. China strongly supports Afghanistan's proposal to participate more actively in SCO affairs and encourages SCO to take more active actions on the Afghan issue. It seems that due to the new situation in and around Afghanistan, a favorable time has come for China to strengthen its diplomatic efforts in the SCO.
