Afghanistan is undergoing a transformation that has taken much of the world by surprise. Under Taliban rule, the country is seeing the rise of massive infrastructure projects that could reshape its economic and geopolitical future. From the ambitious Qosh Tepa Canal to the revival of the long-delayed $10 billion TAPI pipeline, Afghanistan is investing in strategic assets that promise more than just development—they signal control over vital resources like water, energy, and minerals.
Key among these efforts is the construction of large dams and the planning of Kabul New City, a modern urban center aimed at redefining the capital’s future. These initiatives are also laying the groundwork for increased regional influence, particularly as Afghanistan sits on untapped mineral reserves worth trillions of dollars.
What adds to the complexity is China’s growing involvement. Through a quiet but strategic expansion of its $60 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), Beijing is now extending its reach into Afghanistan. This move raises the stakes significantly, connecting Afghan infrastructure to China’s Belt and Road Initiative and drawing the country deeper into Asia’s evolving power dynamics. As these projects unfold, Afghanistan could shift from being seen as a fragile state to a central player in the region’s future.
