Kabul, February 15 (RHC)-- In news from Afghanistan, a $4 billion road network once touted as a symbol of U.S. accomplishment is now falling apart.
According to The Washington Post, sections of the road have become death traps riddled with craters and crumbling pavement. The United States has refused to fund road maintenance in Afghanistan since 2012 due to a lack of faith in the country’s abilities.
Despite those concerns — and the list of gruesome injuries attributed to the current road network — the United States is continuing to build new roads in Afghanistan, at a cost of millions of dollars.
