Afghanistan troops withdrawal - Trump's triumph?

         

     


There have been media reports of both American and international, saying that the new American President, Joe Biden is planning to pull out all the American troops from Afghanistan by September 11, 2021. (Note the date – 9/11)! Sounds unpleasantly familiar? Well, let bygones be bygones. Let us not dig back the tragic and cruel memories.

 Coming back to the withdrawal, it sounds, as though, Joe Biden has taken the initiative to do so, to withdraw the American troops. Actually, that is not the case. The planning and The Agreement had been done by the then, President Trump with the Taliban on February 2020. The Taliban, in turn, were not to support the already ‘defeated’ Al-Qaeda, and not to attack the America troops. The Taliban had insisted the American troops be withdrawn by May 1, 2021. Now, there is a nervous and silent hope that  no acts of violence, by the Taliban, occur when the May 1 deadline passes!

By the way, the withdrawal of the troops, is by no means, a half-finished business, like that of the Vietnam War withdrawal, when the Americans lost the war, and the then, President Nixon said they were ‘withdrawing with honor’! This time, the Americans say that Al-Qaeda had been defeated and a strong Afghanistan government had been put into place, and there is no reason for Americans troops to be in Afghanistan any more. Hope it is, exactly, that.
