答疑：VechosyIn 1989, the last Soviet troops left Afghanistan, nine years after they've first rolled in. Luisa Dougall has been talking to two people who were there as the last Russian soldiers crossed the Friendship Bridge that separates Afghanistan from the former Soviet Union.
"The Soviet Union is finally out of Afghanistan. The last of their soldiers crossed the border to end a military adventure the Russians now admit was a mistake."
"It's February 15th, 1989, nine years and 50 days after the Soviet Union first sent its army into Afghanistan. A generation of young Russians have been sent to fight, and a million Afghans had died. But now a new leader in Moscow had ordered the troops to withdraw, just like so many of the armies that had invaded Afghanistan before them."
"Nine years and 15,000 deaths after going into Afghanistan, the last Soviet troops were finally coming home. The withdrawal completed in good order, but the army defeated in the task it had been sent to perform. The pullout, a result of Mr Gorbachev's view of the world, just as the invasion had been of Leonid Brezhnev's.
The withdrawal have been spread over months. February was the end. The Kremlin sent Russian and foreign journalists to the border town of Termez to watch the last soldiers arrive back on Soviet soil.1989年，最后一批苏联部队撤离阿富汗。路易莎·道戈采访了两位见证者，当最后的苏军走过分隔阿富汗和前苏联的友谊大桥时，他们就在现场。
“苏联终于离开阿富汗了。最后一批苏军士兵跨过边境，结束了一场军事冒险，如今俄罗斯人也已承认这场冒险原本就是一个错误。”
“这天是1989年2月15日，离苏联最初把军队开进阿富汗已经过去了9年零50天。整整一代年轻的俄罗斯人被送上战场，而一百万阿富汗人死于战争。但现在，莫斯科江山易主，新的领导人下令撤回军队，这个结果和许多之前入侵阿富汗的军队如出一撤。”
“入侵阿富汗至今历时九年，1.5万人丧生，最后一批苏军终于回老家了。撤离秩序良好，但这项任务他们终于是没能完成。撤军的决定源于戈尔巴乔夫的世界观，正如当初的入侵是勃列日涅夫世界观的产物。”
“这场延续了数月之久的撤离终于在二月画上了句号。克里姆林宫方面把俄罗斯记者和外国记者们派到边境小镇特麦兹，让他们见证最后的士兵重返苏联故土。”
