After taking control of most cities, including the capital, Kabul, and as the Taliban seek to establish their own governance structures in Afghanistan, specialized observers, including those close to the movement itself, wonder about the resources with which the movement will manage the crumbling economy.

In the world's 190 most powerful economies, Afghanistan has 173 places, lives with approximately 35 million people, relies heavily on external assistance and suffers economically as a result of the corona epidemic in its various regions.

The recent World Bank report confirms that the Afghan economy is "extremely fragile," relying on assistance, particularly from NATO countries, and the private sector is very weak.

Employment in Afghanistan is concentrated in the agricultural profession, on which 60% of the population is dependent and 44% of the country's workers are employed.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) had warned of the effects of instability and Taliban control on the country's cities and sovereign institutions, noting that "this could wipe out all the economic potential at hand, to the very least."

UNFPA expected the capacity of State agencies to provide educational, health and logistical services to the population to collapse within less than a year of the Movement's control.

On the one hand, the level of services it provides to society could be reduced to very low levels, particularly in the areas of education, health, culture and infrastructure, which could create a deficit and a dramatic decline in the country's future development.

The second is an expected increase in the levels of cannabis cultivation in the northern parts of the country, where the Taliban consider it a secure source of funds to cover their own needs, in particular the salaries and livelihoods of some 100,000 active members of the movement, which may affect the worldwide trade in narcotic substances.
