Germany failed in Afghanistan:

Germany failed in Afghanistan: "Get out of Afghanistan" was the slogan of Germany's left-wing party twenty years ago today. The left-wing party had expressed strong reservations about Germany's involvement in the Western defense alliance NATO's Afghan mission called ASIAF. DW commentator Marcel Firstnaw writes that if the party had been in power it could have done so.

According to him, this question can be answered with both yes and no. According to him, "yes" because in order to defend democracy it was necessary to fight terrorism against the Taliban and this movement.

And 'no' in the event that it is soon realized that it is not possible to win the war in Afghanistan. This is because of the corruption of the Afghan government and the weakening of the democratic


He says the West has never made a serious effort to address these fundamental issues in Afghanistan. The war mission, in particular, completely ignored the cultural and historical issues of Afghanistan.

Many questions arose while discussing NATO's Afghan mission in Germany. When will the German mission end? That was a question that only the Washington administration could answer. The mission was led by the United States.

 Despite this, the German government was not at all powerless. If not military missions, then at least civilian missions can make a difference.

Now that the Taliban have taken control of Kabul, they should expel those who supported Afghan diplomats and the army during the 20-year war.

Marcel Furstnau says it is a shame for the German government that so many Afghans have not yet been deported and that time is running out.

In June, German Foreign Minister Heiko Moss ruled out the possibility that the Afghan Taliban would soon take over Kabul. When these fears became a reality, they blamed the German Federal Intelligence Agency for the failure.

Criticism of the German intelligence service's analysis of Afghanistan is somewhat justified, but it is not all. The question is, did the German government make Plan B? That is, after the fall of Kabul, was there any plan to expel the Germans and supporters of the German government there?

The primary responsibility in this situation rests with the Chancellor's Office, which approves all policies. This is the same office where plans are made at weekly cabinet meetings, where intelligence is discussed.

In short, Angela Merkel now has to explain. The only hope left for him and the other Germans is the successful withdrawal of Germans and German aides from Afghanistan, which began late.

There is still a chance that lives can be saved. Achieving this goal, be it political or financial, should not be neglected at any cost. One thing is important, but in this situation, it will be difficult to restore the lost confidence of Afghans and Germans.
