On the one hand, a power vacuum (in the usual sense) emerged and on the other hand, some threats began to transform more intensely. For example, control of the north-western border became a pressing issue for Pakistan because the Taliban do not recognise established international borders and because there is a separate Taliban entity within Pakistan that qualifies as a terrorist organisation.
