Abstract	This paper attempts to investigate the Afghan policies of the regional powers after 2021 when the Taliban came to power. After coming to power in 2021, the Taliban abolished the previous government and decided to build their own. The whole world had to start their relationship with Afghanistan once again. As we know the geostrategic location of Afghanistan compels the regional and neighboring countries to keep their interaction intact. We have regional powers like China, Russia, and India having the world's top economies and larger influence both in the world and the region. This paper thus aims to understand their foreign policies towards Afghanistan after 2021. The paper argues that these states have stakes in Afghanistan, due to its strategic location and natural resources. These states are lured to be involved in Afghanistan without considering what the internal situation in Afghanistan is. It is either due to the geo-strategic location of Afghanistan or the natural resources or other economic potential which compel these states to remain in relation with any government in power.
