@panglaro8486 Facepalm. Firstly CIA created terroristic groups, then Afghanistan asked Soviets for help (like several years ago it did Syria, when asked Russian protection against ISIL and rest). Soviets rejected to Afghanistan ~12th times!
As we know nowadays, from direct speech of U.S. officials, it was kind of trip for USSR created by U.S., part of so-called Cold War. Whole war in Afghanistan personally invented by Zbigniew Brzeziński, he gave perfect interviews where explained how invented whole this story. You also can read memories of R. Gates (former CIA director), he also told a lot of details.
Also looks like you not understand who is who. Firstly, not Russians, but Soviets. On South of USSR lived exactly same people like in Afghanistan — Tajiks, Uzbeks, etc. Soviets of course sent on help army from that people. As example first regiment which came (nowadays it is easy to google all they names), from 500 soldiers only 2 (two) were Russians.
