KABUL: The head of US and international forces in Afghanistan said on Monday he was “not refuting” reports that Russia was providing support, including weapons, to the Taliban.

General John Nicholson was speaking in Kabul during a visit by US Defence Secretary Jim Mattis.

Asked about reports that Russia was providing a range of help including weapons to the Taliban, who control large areas of Afghanistan, he replied: “Oh no I’m not refuting that.”

If the Russians are supplying the Afghan Taliban with arms, how are they doing it?

Probably through the north. Russia basically controls Afghanistan's northern borders, despite not having a direct border with Afghanistan. It's no secret that Russian troops "jointly patrol" the border with Afghanistan's northern neighbors, like Tajikistan and (i believe) Uzbekistan.
 
Pakistan is supplying arms to Taliban
Iran is arming Taliban
Now Russia is arming taliban

What is next? China is arming the taliban?

The war is far from over, $6 trillion dollars have gone to waste or what?

Maybe India should send boots on ground.

Sarcasm! right? or a humble innocent question? Well now that's a million dollar question.

You probably didn't get the depth of his question. What he really meant was, is Pakistan helping Russia now to deliver weapons to the Taliban?
