London [UK], September 19 (ANI): US President Donald Trump said that the US is trying to regain control of Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan, which is currently under the control of the Taliban government after the US troops withdrew from Afghanistan in 2021. 'We were going to leave Afghanistan, but we were going to leave it with strength and dignity, and we were going to keep Bagram, the big air base - one of the biggest air bases in the world,' Trump said during a joint news conference with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Trump has repeatedly indicated that he would have kept control of the air base, given its strategic importance near the border between Afghanistan and China. Trump has already called the decision to withdraw the troops from the air base 'the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country.' I would have kept Bagram, the big air base, which right now is controlled by China.
