US President Donald Trump will speak to the nation on Italian Night from Fort Myer to Arlington, Virginia, "to provide an update on America's engagement path in Afghanistan and South Asia." The White House communicated it: after theBannon's departure, the latest in a long series of farewells in the president's staff, it seems that Trump has been persuaded by high army officials to strengthen the military presence in Kabul, by sending 7-9 thousand men according to some sources.
For some time, the military has been asking for new funds and a strengthened war system to counter the terrorist threat. Before he became president, Trump had spoken out fiercely against the US mission in Kabul. Four years ago, President Obama was asked to leave Afghanistan "immediately". “Let's deal with America first,” he tweeted. Now the change of course, with a new and decisive "engagement" in the country that was the scene of the reaction of the Bush Administration to the attacks of 4 September 11, whose 2001th anniversary will soon be celebrated.
