US President Donald Trump has warned that if Afghanistan does not give back the control of Bagram Airbase to the US, then there will be serious consequences. Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social, “If Afghanistan Bagram Airbase does not give it to those who made it, that is, America will have bad things.”
Trump had also said earlier that the US wants control of this base used by American forces after the September 11, 2001 attacks. On Friday (September 19), he told reporters that talks are going on with Afghan officials on this issue. The airbase went into the hands of the Taliban movement after American soldiers moved from Afghanistan in 2021.
Afghan officials have already opposed the revival of American military presence. Afghan Foreign Ministry official Zakir Jalal said on X (East Twitter), “Afghanistan and America should talk to each other but America does not need to maintain military presence in any part of Afghanistan.”
“We want Bagram back”
At a meeting with Britain’s Prime Minister Kir Starmer, US President Trump said that his administration is trying to get back the control of Bagram Airbase. He explained the main reason behind this to be closest to China’s nuclear weapons. Trump called it a complete disaster under the administration of former President Joe Biden and said that the Biden administration messed up with the US Army’s long war.
Trump said, “We are trying to get it back. We want this base back because Afghan authorities need us. We want that base back and one of the reasons is that it is only one hour away from China’s nuclear weapons construction site.”
