摘要

Until 11 September 2001, the United States was widely presumed to lack vital interests in Central Asia. The attention paid to Caspian energy after the collapse of the Soviet Union did not appreciably change Central Asia's low ranking in American strategic priorities and public awareness. Although American trade with the region increased and American oil companies hastened to join the multinational oil consortia emerging in and around the Caspian basin, Central Asia was hardly becoming critical to the American economy. The development of limited political and military relationships with former Soviet republics did little to alter this picture. Thus, it was also assumed that no American president would send combat troops to Central Asia or assume long-term commitments that encompassed, or had serious consequences for the South Caucasus, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Turkey and China's Xinjiang province - that is, 'greater Central Asia'. President Bill Clinton had launched cruise missiles at Afghanistan after the bombing of US embassies in East Africa instead of sending soldiers to track down Osama bin Laden. And although the Taliban had played host to al-Qaeda and committed all manner of atrocities against its own citizens well before 11 September, no US official or politician of either major party proposed that American power be used to revamp Afghanistan's politics or to expel al-Qaeda.
