Donald Trump dévoilera sa stratégie pour l'Afghanistan: beaucoup de bruit pour rien?

Malgré le tourbillon de gazouillis et de déclarations fracassantes, les politiques réellement appliquées par l'administration sont plutôt conventionnelles. Par contre, pour ceux qui ont appuyé Donald Trump parce qu'il s'exprimait régulièrement contre les interventions américaines à l'étranger, il y a des motifs d'être déçu...

 "The move comes after the dismissal Friday of chief strategist Steve Bannon, who voiced skepticism about an increased military footprint in the region and preferred outsourcing some of the duties to private contractors. Vice President Mike Pence and national security adviser H.R. McMaster were said to have encouraged Trump to accept his commanders' proposals to send more troops, though Pence’s office said he remained neutral.

Trump has refused to commit to a specific strategy for months, causing angst among U.S. and Afghan military commanders who wanted to boost the 8,400 American troops now in the country. The Taliban has grown in strength in Afghanistan, and Al Qaeda and the Islamic State terrorist groups have gained footholds that have caused the military concern."
