Former U.S. President Donald Trump has warned Afghanistan of "bad things" if it does not return control of the Bagram Air Base to the United States. In a post on Truth Social, Trump emphasized the strategic importance of the base, located near China's nuclear facilities. He stated that the U.S. is in discussions with Afghan authorities to reclaim the base, which was abandoned during the 2021 withdrawal. Experts caution that re-occupying Bagram would require significant military resources and could lead to increased tensions in the region. (PC: AP)
