Abstract: On August 15, 2021, the war on terror, which had prolonged for two decades, was concluded as the Afghan Taliban took control of Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan. The war on terror is perhaps regarded as one of the most controversial wars, strategically and politically defined during the 21st century. What deed was done in these twenty years is now history, but now the region has come up with a more significant concern. The concern of humanitarian crisis, the concern of political trust in Taliban leadership, and the concern of sustainable peace are some of the highlights that stakeholders seemed to be worried about. During the recent 17th Extraordinary conference of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the Secretary-General of the United Nations identified that Afghanistan today faces a humanitarian crisis. The stakeholders must take a serious note of the issue, or the region will face the highest catastrophe of the century. Will there be any peace and sustainability in Afghanistan? Would the Taliban be able to secure their trust among the public? What would be the future of the political scenario in the state? This paper tends to analyze the facts of the contemporary politics of Afghanistan. Moreover, this paper will try to identify the outcomes in terms of regional and state-level concerns while the Taliban holds the center throne. A historical overview and brief contrast of the War on Terror will be provided to understand the topic better. This paper will also evaluate the future aspect of political domains in Afghanistan.
