Wang Wenbin: The US invaded Afghanistan for 20 years, killing 174,000 Afghans, including more than 30,000 civilians, turning nearly one-third of Afghans into refugees, and over half of Afghans facing extreme hunger, causing rare humanitarian disaster.
The United States smashed a country and ruined the future of a generation. In the end, it not only walked away, but also took the life-saving money that the Afghan people depended on for its own survival.
This fully exposed the barbarity and cruelty of the so-called "rules-based international order" by the US.
The US has no right to talk about democracy and human rights.
What the US should do is to immediately lift the illegal freeze on the assets of the Central Bank of Afghanistan, apologize and compensate the Afghan people for the 20 years they have lost, and bring the murderers of the Afghan people to justice.
