Abstract: The Taliban movement is a militant group that emerged in Afghanistan in the mid-1990s and seized power in the country in 1996. The group's ideology is based on a strict interpretation of Sunni Islam, and it seeks to establish an Islamic state in Afghanistan. Despite its extremist ideology, the Taliban has played a significant role in regional political processes. The group has maintained close ties with Pakistan and has been involved in peace talks with the Afghan government and the United States. However, the situation in Afghanistan remains volatile, and the Taliban's role in regional political processes is complex and multifaceted. This article provides an overview of the origins and ideology of the Taliban movement, its role in regional political processes, and the challenges it poses to regional stability.
