And you are wrong about China. China has their own Islamic problem still.
China indeed has ongoing challenges related to its Muslim population, particularly with regard to ethnic and religious minorities such as the Uyghurs in Xinjiang. The Chinese government has faced widespread criticism for its policies in the region, which include mass detentions, surveillance, and significant restrictions on religious practices.
Government Policies
The Chinese authorities describe their actions as part of a counter-terrorism strategy, citing concerns about extremism. However, numerous human rights organizations argue that these measures amount to cultural suppression and violations of basic human rights.
Social and Economic Impact
The situation has led to tensions both domestically and internationally, as various countries and organizations call for greater respect for human rights and religious freedoms in China.
China's engagement with Afghanistan was driven by concerns about Islamist extremism spilling into Xinjiang, that's correct: Beijing’s primary motive for deeper involvement has been security—preventing militant links, cross‑border radicalization, and the movement of Uyghur militants. Key points:
China increased attention to Afghanistan after 2001 when global jihadist networks and regional instability raised fears of militant influence reaching Xinjiang.
Throughout the 2000s–2010s Beijing pursued security cooperation (intelligence sharing, training, and border security) with Afghanistan and neighboring states to counter extremism.
After the 2021 Taliban takeover, China sought security guarantees from the Taliban to prevent Afghanistan becoming a base for militants targeting China or Xinjiang.
China frames its Xinjiang policies as counter‑terrorism; analysts see Beijing’s regional actions (including in Afghanistan) as driven largely by those security concerns.
