todays video is Shows Why Sovviet Union invaded Afghanistan
so in December 1979 USSR invaded the country of afghanistan, this invasion lasted for 10 years and it resulted in a humiliating soviet defeat, this defeat caused a huge toll on soviet military economy and reputation, and it also played a huge role in the dissolution of USSR,
then why did USSR invade this country,
so Firstly Soviet leaders wanted to spread their influence in Asia, their plan was to invade Afghanistan and then slowly carry on the communist expansion,
secondly Soviets thought that Afghanistan is a weak country so conquering Afghanistan would be an easy way of flaunting the soviet military strength to the west,

Moral of the story: NEVER UNDERSTIMATE YOUR OPPONENT 😊

People give Pakistan very little credit against USSR in this war, we literally trained the Afghan fighters, provided them with logistical support, gathered information for them... Because Soviets didn't just want influence in Asia, they wanted access to warm Oceans, so it was either that USSR is stopped in Afghanistan or the war would be fought on our land next.

USSR: dude this country is so small I'll invade it in no time
Afghanistan: you sure about that??

USSR:WTF

[Alpha_xyz]

As a India 🇮🇳 I learnt somewhere that to counter Soviets in Afghan, USA create Taliban ( group of students and scholar) and provide them weapons and resources. And till now USA fucked up Afghanistan for it's rivalry to Soviet Union.


Poor people of Afghanistan, they suffer a lot. There are also some Rape and violence case by USA soilders and it's Allies.

Brits, Soviets, and testicle heads: *helo afghanistan, your time is up*
Afghanistan: *you picked the wrong house fool*
