JAmericans have been with them in Doha for many years Taliban Deliberative democracy shares power. Over the weekend, their list of requirements was reduced to one requirement: Let us leave our embassy before you finally take over Afghanistan.
In this country, the authorities want to check which Afghans, German soldiers, diplomats or aid organizations have been in Germany since 2002, and who might be granted entry permits. But soon there will be no more due process.
Due to the powerful evacuation mission of the United States, even the plan to rescue its own people from Kabul with the air force has only a chance of success.Afghanistan Armed forces It has been almost two decades since it started, and it has surrendered. The federal government is now anxious to issue tickets for the last flight under the militant Islamists. Thousands of partners may be swayed by their destiny: the Taliban.
Are Germans only responsible for their interpreters?
However, if the government forces bought them through a more courageous struggle in the months before the fall of Kabul, the intervening country would not be able to escape the moral dilemma. The West was still calculating this struggle last week. This is not just the date when the “local workers” of earlier years wished to move. The question is: After twenty years in Afghanistan, to whom is the United States, Germany, and allies accountable? Interpretation services only for your soldiers? Or also apply to teachers in internationally funded girls’ schools?
Of course, the answer can never be to bring all Afghans running for the modern country to Europe and the United States. Such an outflow will be another blow to society. The Afghans have a responsibility to make Afghanistan a country that can stand on two feet. But this is a generation of projects that has just begun twenty years after the Hindu Kush invasion.
Europeans behind the U.S.
Even at the moment of failure, European politicians can hide behind the United States and spread their fingers. Joe Biden show. Last week, when the President of the United States called on the Afghans to finally fight for himself, he spoke with his allies from the heart. But everyone knows that this is wishful thinking.
They have provided countless hours of training and a lot of equipment for the Afghan army, but they have never been able to fill the key gap: the soldiers lacked fighting morale and lacked faith in the Afghan freedom plan. When in doubt, they withdrew from the experience they had painfully acquired in the family on how to reach an agreement with the new ruler.
The West faces a fatal dilemma: the longer its army stays, the longer the Afghan government stays on it. When they left, the structure collapsed. This is predictable. The West has hopelessly gone too far in Afghanistan. This recognition is long overdue, but it is not a permit to evade responsibility. The United States and Europe must admit that the presence of the last controllable force is sufficient to perpetuate the stalemate with the Taliban. This is not a strategy. But everything else is a failure.
