Three years ago , the U.S. military was at Kabul ’s international airport frantically organizing evacuation flights out of Afghanistan as the Taliban returned to power in the capital city after a 20-year hiatus.

Ruben Navarrette : The Biden-Harris administration received significant criticism both during and after the evacuation.

He says the measure of success going forward should not be how progressive Afghan society is, but whether Afghanistan can still defend itself against terrorism emanating from Afghanistan .

U.N. monitors assess that the Taliban is attempting to restrict the fighters’ activities.

The motivation is self-interest: The Taliban is reluctant to jeopardize its status and power by repeating the past.

U.S. allies and partners not only remain committed to strategic relationships with Washington but are seeking to expand them.
