The Communist (Maoist) Party of Afghanistan was founded in 2004 through the merger of five other parties.
Their main objectives are the expulsion of the occupying imperialist forces and the overthrow of the puppet regime, and to achieve the victory of the New Democratic Revolution and the Socialist Revolution and to struggle for communism.[1]
While they oppose the Taliban, they mainly oppose the USA and its puppet government. They criticize the Taliban for its demand for semi-colonial independence, which they call a defective pursuit because it "is only based on the partial solution to the current principal contradiction and is unable to guide society towards the final solution of the fundamental contradiction."[2] They see the Taliban's taking of territory as merely "for the purposes of increasing their gains on the path of capitulation with the occupiers", falling short of a real war of resistance.[2]
