Aktuel laufen die Verhandlungen zwischen den USA und den Taliban über einen Abzug von US-Truppen aus Afghanistan. Antiwar.com berichtet nun, dass die USA augenscheinlich keinen vollständigen Abzug in Erwägung ziehen, was die Gespräche erschwere: „Trump said there would be ‚a determination‘ about Afghanistan at some point, but that the US will withdraw some troops, and leave 8,600 in Afghanistan, saying it would be ‚very well controlled.‘ This is less than half of the US presence. Less than half falls dramatically short of the number of troops the Taliban wanted to leave Afghanistan, which is every single one. Trump only added to trouble in negotiating that by vowing that the US will always ‚keep a presence‘ in Afghanistan even if a deal is reached.“ (jw)
