Yes but the Mujahadein some of them became the Taliban, and it is the same matter.

EG, Russia was fighting against the Mujahadein, Russia was the enemy of the US, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, therefore the US supplies Stinger missiles to the Muahadein.

Now.

US & NATO is fighting against the Taliba, NATO is viewed maybe not as a straight enemy by China but close enough, so China supplies the Taliban with Chinese equivalent to Stinger missiles as the enemy of the guy who is a pain in the butt and could become my enemy is my friend.

I personally don't believe it as I can't see what China would have to gain, but if true then I think the logic above is comparable to the US supply the Mujahadein with Stingers is in the same vein.

I wouldn't be suprised though if the Chinese know the Iranian weapons are being lost so to speak and ending up in 'stan.
