Karpovich, O.G. Afghanistan — 2014
in the foreign political strategies
of the USA and Canada
Abstract:
The problem of preserving the due level of security in Afghanistan remains topical, and keeps gaining topicality.
To a great extent it is related to the intention of the USA and its allies to bring the military forces out of Afghanistan
by 2014. There are worries, that after the US leaves Afghanistan, their place shall be occupied by the Taliban, them
being the only real force capable of taking political power in the states. No one believes that the “puppet” regime of
Hamid Karzai shall be capable of staying in power. If Afghanistan returns to the civil war situation, or yet again becomes
controlled by the Taliban, it shall become a “gunpowder keg” for the region, where many states are balancing
on the verge of falling apart even in current rather peaceful conditions (such as Kirgizstan and Tajikistan). In fact, many
regional players are getting ready to the possible chaos in the region and the maneuvers within the frameworks of the
OSCE and the SCO.
Keywords:
political science, ISAF, the USA, the Canada, Afghanistan, national security, foreign policy, international relations, conflict, national interests.
