Russia is against the abandonment of the US military base in Afghanistan after 2014

19


As is known, in 2014, the anti-terrorist coalition of NATO countries will withdraw troops from this state. According to Robert Blake, Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia, the United States of America, on the contrary, is negotiating with the government of Afghanistan about the possibility of establishing a military base in the territory of the state of Afghanistan.

According to the Interfax commentary, Robert Blake repeatedly pointed out that the plans of the United States lack the task of planning the opening of new bases in the countries of Central Asia.

An assistant secretary of state visited Tajikistan, following in the United States from Kyrgyzstan, to attend the inauguration ceremony of President Almazbek Atambayev. Earlier, Blake met in Ashgabat with Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, the president of Turkmenistan.

At a meeting with Tajikistan’s leader Emomali Rahmon, the United States asked whether the United States should establish military bases in Afghanistan: “Washington is currently negotiating with the Afghan government about our military presence in Afghanistan after the security operation is completed.”

In a conversation with the leaders of these countries, Robert Blake especially emphasized the fact that the Pentagon does not have the prospect of a long-term presence of US troops or bases in Central Asia.

For reference: The 201-I military base of Russia with 7000 military personnel is deployed in Tajikistan. This land military base of Russia is the largest outside the country.

Speculation on the topic of the new US military base in Central Asia gave rise to a statement by the new leadership of the Kyrgyz Republic that Kyrgyzstan is not going to extend the mandate of the US military air base in the country, which aims to support NATO forces in Afghanistan.

Russia has a very negative attitude towards this perspective. Zamir Kabulov, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for Afghanistan, expressed a lack of understanding: “The absurdity of the situation is that, following the policy of reducing the size of the US Army, Washington is simultaneously strengthening its military infrastructure in the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, which includes bases ... This issue directly affects the interests of many states located around the Republic of Afghanistan, including Russia, and requires serious discussion. ”

    Well, they can be understood. You can’t immediately get rid of drug addiction.

    It's time to drive the Pindos from there, or let them be fed with drugs instead of food. Victims of McDonald's may lose weight

    The Americans act according to the principle: "I came, I saw, I created a military base." Therefore, long ago and firmly hooked on this "needle". The base in Afghanistan, for example, is a control of the flow of drugs to neighboring states and further to Europe. And all under the plausible pretext of fighting these very drugs. After all, no one will check what they are actually doing there. And the authorities will do what they rick from above. Because the unspoken order "to provide assistance" will be interpreted as the top officials say.

      Not the principle: "come, nakkl, run away" sometimes run and with a "dirty ass" due to the lack of time to wipe.

      They are being kicked out of Pakistan, so they want to cling to Afghanistan.

    Americans do not want to make a base for nothing. These are queens and horses on a world-wide chessboard. A dictatorship by a military pawn.

    Maybe we should set up a military base in Colombia and help increase the productivity of drugs to flood America?

      There is no need to create anything. In the US states, such absurd laws are sometimes such that they themselves will soon be bent and without any help.

    Well, they would call it not a military base but some kind of agricultural university where they would study the issue of creating genetically modified hemp

    What an abracadabra! And where is the statement in this little article that Russia is "against leaving" the base by the Yusami ?! In the Pindos, they got sick! Their attempts to stay in Asia are passed off as the desire of the Asians themselves, and they also dragged Russia into it, for greater persuasiveness! This is a greyhound! Doesn't fit into any gate! The hysterics of the Yusiks begins ... Pakistan demanded that the Americans vacate the base on its territory within 15 days, and the Yusiks have already begun to slowly retreat from there. American experts themselves assert that if Russia blocks transit through its territory, in addition to the closure of the aforementioned base by Pakistan, it will be disastrous for the Yusov group in Afghanistan! The ground starts to burn under the feet of the gringo!

      It is high time to cut off the transit to these ghouls, this is not our war, let the evil empire itself dissolve what it has done.

    This should be understood so that, following the example of Pakistan, Russia will not block the supply channel for Pindos in Afghanistan, but after 2014, even if they do not hope.

    This phrase can be interpreted as follows: The Russian army, unlike the Pindos, is not able to fight against the Taliban, and therefore is afraid of the departure of Amers from Afghanistan.

      Russia is not afraid of this, let the gringos take their feet off, we should. The Yankees got their faces, the Taliban will still let them go. It would be nice for Russia to close transit for the Natofascists.

    The situation will look like this:

    1) The Americans will finish running an anti-terrorist company in Afghanistan - drug trafficking and not only it will increase (arms trade, the movement of militants, financial fraud and financing of illegal armed groups)

    2) They will build a military base - and what do you think they can place there ?! (close to China, Russia) Afghanistan, consider the center of Asia - here everyone around you can dictate what to do

      ..that I stated a possible development of events, therefore we need to be prepared for such a turn and do everything possible so that neither the first nor the second points are feasible!
