My Prediction

By: Asuna Isabel Loaiza Rodríguez

I believe that before 2021 ends, a lot of things will happen, so this is my prediction. I
believe that Afghanistan will succumb to the Taliban, and Afghans will suffer greatly, especially
Afghan women. Afghanistan will start to suffer greatly as a country, since their politics will shift
greatly, their economy will fall by a great deal since their economy depends a lot on foreign aid,
especially from the United States; and since the Taliban now controls the country the US will
not give any economic aid to them. So, my prediction is that Afghanistan will suffer greatly for
at least a couple of years until the government gains enough power to bring the Taliban out of
the bigger cities.

Another thing I believe will happen before the end of 2021 is that the world’s pandemic
will decrease the infections due to vaccine shots being delivered to majority of countries in the
world, with most people applicable to get their shots. This will minimize the effect of the virus
and most of its variants by the end of the year, though I really doubt it will totally end before at
least mid-2022. My prediction, in a few words, is that the pandemic will reduce substantially
but will not be entirely eradicated by the end of 2021.
