Mustafa_Q.4_Identify one of the cold war legacies you find most powerful in your country and explain its impact?

Description

My country Pakistan, unfortunately, was not neutral during the cold war. It was ally of the west and was misused a lot to break down the Soviet Union when they were fighting in Afghanistan. The US and the west created the Taliban which was trained in Pakistan. This increases the radicalism in my country and later the same Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan turned against the state of Pakistan and was left alone in the war against terrorism. This has a huge impact on our people and country as very recently we are out of those situations by sacrificing almost 80 thousand people.
