Afghanistan’s Bagram Airbase: Why Is Trump Desperate to Take It Back?
Former U.S. President Donald Trump has sparked fresh debate by calling for the reclamation of Afghanistan’s Bagram Airbase, a facility long regarded as one of America’s most strategically significant military sites in the region.
Bagram, once the largest U.S. military base in Afghanistan, played a central role during the 20-year war on terror, serving as a hub for air operations, intelligence, and logistical support. Following the U.S. withdrawal in 2021, the base was abandoned and later taken over by Taliban forces.
Trump argues that reclaiming Bagram is critical for U.S. national security, particularly given its proximity to both China and Iran. Analysts suggest that his renewed focus on the base underscores concerns about growing regional instability and the shifting balance of global power.
Critics, however, note that any attempt to retake Bagram would come with enormous diplomatic, military, and financial risks—potentially reigniting conflict in a region where the U.S. has already paid a heavy price.
The debate over Bagram highlights the enduring symbolic and strategic weight of Afghanistan in U.S. foreign policy and the complex challenges tied to America’s legacy in the region.

South Korea Fires Warning Shots at North Korean Vessel Crossing Maritime Border
South Korea’s military confirmed that it fired warning shots early today after a North Korean commercial vessel crossed the Northern Limit Line (NLL) in the Yellow Sea.
The incident occurred around 5 a.m. near Baengnyeong Island, a sensitive maritime area that has been the site of repeated clashes between the two Koreas. Officials said the South Korean Navy first issued audio warnings, and when the vessel failed to comply, warning shots were fired. The North Korean ship then retreated back across the boundary.
The NLL serves as the de facto maritime border between the two Koreas, but Pyongyang has never formally recognized it, often leading to heightened tensions in the region. Analysts warn that such incidents highlight the fragile security environment in the Yellow Sea and the risk of escalation.
