Sixteen years ago this month there was panic across central Asia. Having captured Kabul, the Taliban were moving northwards and some commanders were threatening to Talibanise the entire region. That prompted Russia and China to promise support to the ex-Soviet states across the region.
16年前的这个月,整个中亚被恐慌所笼罩。塔利班(Taliban)在占领喀布尔(Kabul)之后开始北移,一些指挥官威胁要对整个中亚进行“塔利班化。迫于这一局势,俄罗斯和中国不得不承诺向该地区这些前苏联加盟共和国提供支持。
Post September 11 the Taliban threat receded but today central Asians are once again panicking at the thought of US troops exiting Afghanistan. Added to the threat of a resurgent Taliban are domestic Islamist extremist groups such as the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU), whose members have spent the past decade in Pakistan’s tribal regions and are now, armed and battle ready, re-entering central Asia through northern Afghanistan.
“9.11事件之后,塔利班的威胁有所缓和,但一想到美军即将撤出阿富汗,如今的中亚人再次陷入了恐慌。除了塔利班势力可能复苏的威胁之外,乌兹别克斯坦伊斯兰运动(Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, IMU)等国内伊斯兰极端组织也让人恐慌。过去十年,这些组织的成员一直活跃在巴基斯坦部落地区,现在他们已经武装起来并做好战争准备,从阿富汗北部再次进入中亚地区。
