Abstract
El regreso del movimiento talibán al poder abre una nueva etapa en Afganistán y un escenario renovado para Asia Central. En un primer momento, prácticamente la totalidad de los vecinos afganos recibieron con satisfacción la retirada de los Estados Unidos y de la OTAN; sin embargo, unas escasas semanas después, estos sentimientos permutaron hacia la incertidumbre y desconfianza que genera el primer gobierno talibán en torno al control y estabilización del país.

Therefore, Afghanistan recovers the role of essential piece in the new Great Game of Central Asia in the 21st Century.
