a saturday in washington all of september 11th changed so much and of course led to such a long campaign in afghanistan 18 years on how vested are americans in still having troops there. well 1st of all helen of these attacks on 911 created a national trauma for many americans they have not been any wars fought on american soil for centuries and these attacks for the 1st time in the lives of many americans gave them the feeling of being under attack and not being vulnerable and these 3 this trauma still exists today as much as the war on terror is still going on with a number of 14000 soldiers still deployed to afghanistan 18 years after 5 911 and many americans are growing tired of these american military interventions abroad a president trump therefore in his election campaign in 2016 promised over and over again to pull american troops out of international crises off of ganesan in

particular of course and many americans are very supportive of that all of her of course back in afghanistan was protecting the leaders who had planned the attacks they go on but the war continues now against the taliban president chump addressed that issue at a memorial ceremony at the pentagon i want to take a listen to what he had to say and then come back to you we had peace talks scheduled a few days ago i called them off when i learned that they had killed a great american soldier from puerto rico and 11 other innocent people they thought they would use this attack to show strength but actually what they showed is unrelenting week. the last 4 days we have hit our enemy harder than they have ever been hit before and that will continue so and about from the president bearing in mind of course that it is

a campaign promise as you mentioned to wind down military involvement in afghanistan if that was going to end in the foreseeable future. well you might not think so if you hear him speak and you just played the sound bite where he said that american troops are currently hitting the taliban harder than ever before that's a quote of today but don't forget it's one of his core election promises to pull his troops out and for that reason essential we invited the taliban leaders to camp david last week and to negotiate a peace agreement to be essentially able to pull out his troops without afghanistan going down in a civil war for instance he has received lots of criticism for trying to negotiate with the taliban an eye level his security advisor john bolton had to leave the white house as a result of that the elections are coming closer and president urgently needs

a foreign policy successes he has not been very successful trying to get iran to the negotiating table trying to get north korean leader kim jung un to the negotiating table so he will try hard to reach a deal with the taliban to be able to pull the american troops out so we might see new attempts anytime soon under the salary aid washington and. the. but it is we us president champ declared peace talks with the taliban day but what does that mean for people who call afghanistan hope with no peace deal on the horizon many fear that more violence is just around the corner. temblor faith the aftermath of a suicide bombing that claimed 12 lives and killed a country's hopes for peace. just days earlier the u.s. is lead envoy was in the afghan capital to finalize a breakthrough agreement with the taliban. and i going to have then is what months
