    TLDR: The unprecedented fall in cultivation follows the Taliban’s decision to prohibit the growing of poppies for opium in April last year.

      Is the implication that the US did not prohibit growing poppies for opium?

      Edit: Apparently, this is true per the article OP linked below.

        Idk… I have as a priority to not make angry the Talibans if they are with me but maybe that’s just me.
