Default Afghanistan In T2K

I have never been that interested in what happened in Afghanistan after the soviet withdrawal and therefore, I was largely ignorant. However, I was reading things on the Afghan civil war that took place between 1989-1992 and I was surprised to learn that the Afghani Army did very well (may be better than before the soviet withdrawal). Whatever the timeline, I would assume that the soviet withdrew. However, I would be surprised to see the Soviet cut their supply support to Najibullah's regime as they did in 1992.

As a result, IMO, the Mujahideen as the Taliban would fail to take power in Afghanistan and the old communist party would remain in power (may be securing most of the country). I don't expect Afghanistan to enter the Twilight war but they could be very supportive of Warsaw Pact.

Does anyone has some thinking about it?
