💨 Abstract

The Torkham border dispute between Afghanistan and Pakistan, ongoing for 19 days, collapsed as the Afghan delegation walked out of negotiations, accusing Pakistan of expanding the Pakistani delegation list without consultation. The dispute began when Afghan forces constructed structures in Pakistani territory, leading to increased tensions and the suspension of trade and cross-border movement. The closure of the border has caused financial losses to traders and hardships for travellers on both sides.
