美军在阿富汗20年，局势回到原点 | 小象漫评 What has US left in Afghanistan? Ruins

随着最后一架运输机飞离

美军宣告从从阿富汗撤退完毕

With the last aircraft having left Kabul, the US has pulled all of its troops out of Afghanistan.

离美国发起阿富汗反恐战争

已经过去了20年

局势兜兜转转回到原点

掌权的还是塔利班

Now it is the Taliban ruling Afghanistan again.

美军当初不远万里

踏足中亚这块土地

说是为打击恐怖主义

The US claimed it was fighting terrorism when it launched the war in 2001,

但越反越恐

美国自己也掉入大坑

but it never solved the problem and became mired in the war.

阿富汗被炮火摧残

现在也成一片烂摊

Afghanistan has suffered a great deal of destruction.

连带着中东中亚各国

都受到恐怖主义的折磨

Even the Middle East has suffered from terrorism “spilling” over from Afghanistan.

阿富汗能否恢复持久和平

还有待时间来验证

但有一点可以确定

一国命运只能掌握在自己手中

别国越折腾

局势就没法平静

It will take time to see whether peace will come to Afghanistan again. However, one thing is certain: A nation’s destiny must stay in its own hands, and external intervention will only make things worse.
