试析美国撤离背景下日本对阿富汗外交新动向

New Trends in Japan’s Diplomacy Towards Afghanistan Against the Background of the US Withdrawal

阿富汗是拥有独特地缘政治地位的西亚内陆国家,长期以来都是大国争相争夺地缘政治影响力的战略要地。近年来,日本通过积极参与阿富汗重建,不断扩展与阿富汗的关系。美国完全撤离阿富汗后,日本将会从地缘政治战略、能源资源来源多元化与非传统安全问题等视角考量与谋划对塔利班重新执政后阿富汗的外交方略。鉴于各种复杂国际关系因素的综合作用以及阿富汗国家与民族的特性,日本深化对阿富汗外交将面临重重困难。

Afghanistan,a landlocked country in West Asia with a unique geopolitical status,has long been a strategic location for major powers to compete for geopolitical influence.In recent years,Japan has been expanding its relations with Afghanistan by actively participating in its reconstruction.After the complete withdrawal of the United States from Afghanistan,Japan will consider and plan its diplomatic strategy towards Afghanistan after the Taliban’s return to power from the perspectives of geopolitical strategy,diversified energy and resources and non-traditional security issues.Given the comprehensive effects of various complex factors of international relations,and the characteristics of the Afghan state and nation,Japan will face numerous difficulties in deepening its diplomacy towards Afghanistan.
