US, Taliban nähern sich einem Friedensvertrag

February 18, 2020 - Ein Waffenstillstand zwischen Veeinigten Staaten und Taliban könnte zum Abzug amerikanischer Truppen aus Afghanistan führen. Über 3.500 US und Koalitionstruppen sowie zehntausende Afghanen sind in den 18 Jahren dieses Krieges gefallen.

The U.S. and the Taliban appear to be close to formally agreeing a seven-day “reduction in violence” deal as a prelude to the signing of a peace agreement to end America’s longest war. All-Afghan peace talks would then begin within 10 days as part of the plan, which envisions the phased withdrawal of U.S. forces over 18 months.

The U.S. wants any deal to include a promise from the Taliban that Afghanistan would not be used as a base by terrorist groups. The U.S. currently has an estimated 12,000 troops in Afghanistan.
