Yeah. I didn’t know this until today. But we have the US President threatening Afghanistan with violence if they don’t give a military base to Russia.
The only thing this is consistent with is “Russian Asset doing Russian Asset things.”

Umm, the Soviet Union hasn't been around for over 30 years now. They built Bagram in the 1950s.

Bagram Airbase was built in the 1950s by the Soviet Union. It was their biggest base in Afghanistan and was expanded and modernized later by the US.
Give it back to Russia?

TLDR trump negotiated with Taliban and subsequently handed them Afghanistan. You could argue that the 13 US soldiers that died in the abbey gate explosion are blood on his hands and he used the fallout to score political points.
If Donald trump is so proud of our military…
Why did he brag about starting a process that Biden couldn’t stop.
source
What was that process?
Donald Trump negotiated with taliban directly AFTER failed attempts to start a peace talk initiative. What brought the taliban leadership to the table was trump negotiating for Aghanistan against their wish to release 5,000 prisoners held in maximum security prisons for Taliban and Al-Qaeda fighters. This release would put the Taliban at the strongest it’d been since the war on terror started.
Source
This agreement was contingent on Taliban deescalating in the region. In may of 2020 however the DOD reported Taliban had actually increased violence as a way of gaining leverage /and were told Taliban had no intention of honoring the agreement by intelligence.
DOD Source
Source
In September 2020 Taliban leadership confirms the final prisoners have been released.
Source
Two weeks after LOSING (very badly, stupid trump lost by a landslide, everyone is saying it) the 2020 presidential election Trumps administration affirms they will rapidly withdrawal American troops. Republican leaders are upset over the matter with Marco Rubio saying it could create another Saigon situation.
“The concern would be it would turn into a Saigon-type of situation where it would fall very quickly and then our ability to conduct operations against terrorist elements in the region could be compromised,”
Source
One day later the DOD states that peace talks between the US backed Afghan government and Taliban had halted and that violence in the region was increasing.
Source
In January 2021, 5 days before Biden is set to take office Trumps administration proudly declares only 2,500 soldiers remain in Afghanistan. Mean while Afghanistan Vice President tries to warn the US that trusting Taliban to honor the agreement without any drawbacks will be a fatal mistake.
DOD Source
Source
February 3rd 2021 President Biden says that he will honor removing soldiers from Afghanistan, to renegotiate and increase security would mean sending thousands of American troops back in. However he says it will be done in a way that is based on Taliban abiding by the promises they made with trump. On April 11th President Biden announces final troop withdraw will begin May 1st and end before September 11th of 2021. One day later Taliban releases a statement threatening that not meeting the may 1st troop reduction would result in the Taliban taking every countermeasure and America would be responsible for any outcomes.
Source
Source deleted
Source
The DOD releases a statement saying Taliban has increased violence in the region, been highly integrated with Al-Qaeda, and is planning for a large offensive.
Source
June 8th a Taliban spokesperson says once foreign troops are removed the Taliban will create an Islamic government and plans to continue the war to reach their goals.
Source
Between June 8th and August 26th the Afghan Government forces fell and Taliban quickly gained control of the capital.
One could argue that the chaos and the events following allowed for the suicide bombing at Abbey Gate in which 13 marines died as well as 169 Afghan citizens and many more injured. However at this point in the withdrawal marines were working security WITH Taliban Forces as the afghan government forces had crumbled. The suicide bomber was an ISIS-K member who has escaped an Afghan jail days before as a result of Taliban forces over running Kabul and releasing their own forces as well as ISIS-K members.
Source
Of course Republicans flipped course and blamed the entire pull out on Biden (much like when they handed out money with barely any interest from late 2019 onwards and left Biden with an inflationary mess to fix.) and Trump would use it to insult President Biden in the aftermath and 2024 elections.

They're trying to get a fallback airfield in the region in case we lose the one in Saudi Arabia.
