Before the U.S. election, no one would think that Biden would have such a big advantage, but in fact, Biden’s electoral votes had already reached 270 votes first, and he defeated Te in this election. Rumpu. This is not good news for Trump, but Trump still insists on claiming that the Democrats have fraudulent conduct in the voting and counting of votes, and has started litigation in many states in the United States, hoping to make himself in this way Stay in the White House.
Trump mastered the Pentagon
Then Trump shifted his focus to the Pentagon. First, Trump unilaterally expelled the current Secretary of Defense Esper, and let his confidant, Director of the Counter-Terrorism Center, Miller, become the acting secretary of defense. Not only that, after Esper was expelled, the Pentagon seemed to have set off a wave of resignations. The three deputy ministers voluntarily resigned within the same day, which created the best opportunity for Trump to take the Pentagon into his own hands. However, the US media are a little worried about Trump's operation. They are afraid that Trump will use the military to change the outcome of the election, which will create a dangerous situation in the United States.
The Acting Secretary of Defense expressed his own attitude
. However, Trump has new ideas recently. According to surging news reports, Trump plans to withdraw thousands of troops from Afghanistan and Iraq. Secretary of Defense Miller also said that American soldiers have done their best in these places. They have been experiencing wars, which makes them very exhausted. The Acting Secretary of Defense is also calling the US troops home. In fact, Trump has long had this idea. In October, Trump suggested that some American troops should return to the United States before Christmas, but this has been opposed by many people. They believe that if they choose to withdraw troops in January next year, it may have a serious impact on the situation in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The reason why the United States wants to withdraw its troops from Afghanistan is that since the 9/11 incident, the United States launched the Iraq War in order to completely eliminate the Taliban. However, what the United States did not expect was that the simple anti-terrorism warfare would have left the US military in Afghanistan for 19 years. In the past ten years or so, the Taliban has not been overthrown by the United States. Instead, it has gained more territory in Afghanistan. The U.S. military can only live in a few large cities. This is undoubtedly a humiliation for the U.S. military.
Miller also knows that if the US military continues to stay in the area, there will be no improvement. On the contrary, it will make American soldiers more tired and consume more taxpayer wealth. It can be said that the United States has endured hardships in Afghanistan in recent years. There are countless soldiers who died in this battle. The United States does not want to continue to stand in a stalemate in the area. Moreover, American taxpayers also hope that the United States can use more funds to develop the economy instead of fighting.
Trump is launching new countermeasures
The Democratic Party is very worried about Trump's actions, and they fear that Trump may take some extreme actions. Trump now needs to consider two things, one is to prevent himself from being liquidated, and the other is the return of the next U.S. election king. Therefore, the Trump administration is likely to do this for some kind of transaction with Biden. If the U.S. military can withdraw from Afghanistan, the saved expenses can be used by the U.S. to develop weapons. The United States itself has invested heavily in military spending. If we increase our investment, I am afraid that the United States will really be far ahead of other countries in terms of weapons.
However, many American media said that Trump and Miller's troop withdrawal opinions seem to be impossible to implement in January next year. Because the agreement signed by the United States and the Taliban government at the time stipulated that the United States would withdraw its troops until May at the latest. And no one can guarantee that once the United States withdraws its troops, whether the Taliban government will continue negotiations with the Afghan government. With the strength of the Afghan government forces, it will all rely on the United States to deter them if they want to organize peace talks with the Taliban. Once the troops are withdrawn, the Taliban organization has no object of fear, and may directly overthrow the Afghan government.
