In a major international development, President Donald Trump has announced that the United States is working to reestablish a military presence at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan — four years after the chaotic U.S. withdrawal that left the base under Taliban control.
During a joint press conference with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in London, President Trump linked the move to America’s broader strategy of countering China’s growing influence in the region. Reports suggest that Chinese forces and contractors have been using Bagram for operations related to Afghanistan’s vast rare-earth mineral reserves, estimated to be worth over $1 trillion.
In this in-depth discussion, former Marine intelligence officer and host of The Strap Podcast, joins us to break down:
Why Bagram Air Base is strategically vital for U.S. interests.
How China’s involvement in Afghanistan impacts global power dynamics.
Whether the U.S. would need to negotiate directly with the Taliban to return.
The human rights challenges that keep Afghanistan diplomatically isolated.
And what a renewed U.S. presence could mean for stability, security, and geopolitics in South and Central Asia.
The conversation explores the risks, political implications, and global stakes behind America’s potential return to Bagram — and how it could reshape the balance of power between Washington, Beijing, and Kabul.
