WASHINGTON — There is debate over the future of U.S. - Afghan relations after U.S.

combat forces withdraw later this year. In particular, there is concern over whether Afghanistan will be able to maintain security and stability if the government decides against signing a security agreement that could allow a residual U.S. force to remain in the country. U.S. and Afghan officials discussed the issue at a forum co-sponsored by VOA.

作战部队撤出后，今年。特别是，有人担心在阿富汗是否能够维持安全和稳定，如果政府决定不签署安全协议，可以让剩余美国力量留在国内。美国和阿富汗官员在一个论坛上共同主办美国之音讨论了这个问题。

After 12 years in Afghanistan, the U.S. combat mission is coming to an end this year. The U.S. has spent hundreds of billions of dollars trying to help stabilize the country and protect civilians.

There is uncertainty over whether U.S. troops will have a post-2014 role that would consist of continued training of Afghan forces and helping in sustaining counterterrorism operations.

有超过美军是否将有一个2014年后的角色将包括阿富汗部队的持续培训，并帮助维持在反恐行动中的不确定性。

At the Washington forum, U.S. Ambassador Marc Grossman said the threat of a terrorist resurgence bolsters the need for an extended U.S. presence. "I think the report today that al-Qaida might be considering reconstituting itself in Afghanistan is the biggest, most important argument you can make for a rapid signing of the bilateral security agreement," he said.

在华盛顿论坛上，马克·格罗斯曼美国大使说，恐怖分子死灰复燃的威胁，支持了需要扩展美国的存在。“我认为今天的报告说，基地组织可能会考虑重构本身在阿富汗是你可以做一个快速签署双边安全协议的最大的，最重要的参数，”他说。

Afghanistan holds presidential elections in April. Without a continued international presence, the elections will be no guarantee of future peace and stability, says U.S. Ambassador James Dobbins. "On the other hand, even with a security agreement in place, a bad election could also result in an Afghanistan that wasn't peaceful, that wasn't stable and that wasn't developing. So, I think Afghanistan needs both.

阿富汗举行总统选举，在四月份。如果没有持续的国际存在，选举将不能保证未来的和平与稳定，詹姆斯说多宾斯美国驻华大使。“但另一方面，即使在地方担保协议，坏的选举可能也导致阿富汗WASN'吨宁静，那WASN'吨稳定和WASN'吨发展，所以，我认为阿富汗既需要。

记者安全委员会主任纳吉布谢里菲说，缺乏一个双边安全协议（BSA）可能是记者在全国挫折。

"If a lack of [a] BSA [bilateral security agreement] is associated with [a] lack of economic aid to Afghanistan, there will be significant challenges ahead for media and the whole concept of freedom of expression in Afghanistan," he said.

“如果缺乏[A]BSA[双边安全协议]是与[A]缺乏经济援助阿富汗相关的，有将提前为媒体和言论自由在阿富汗的整个概念显著的挑战，”他说。

But Afghanistan's U.S. ambassador, Eklil Hakimi, said with the help of its international allies, his country has developed the strong security forces that it needs to face challenges after the U.S. withdrawal.
