U.S. President Joe Biden said Monday that he stands "squarely" behind his decision to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan
美国总统拜登星期一表示，他坚决支持他所作出的从阿富汗撤军的决定，

despite the stunningly swift fall of the country to the Taliban which was completed with a takeover of the national government on Sunday in Kabul.
尽管阿富汗以惊人的速度落入塔利班之手——星期天塔利班在喀布尔接管了阿富汗国家政府。

Mr. Biden said in remarks this afternoon, "After 20 years, I've learned that there was never a good time to withdraw U.S. forces",
拜登在今天下午的讲话中说，“20年过去了，我知道从来不会有一个撤出美军的好时机”，

but he admitted that U.S. officials did not anticipate how quickly the situation in Afghanistan would deteriorate with the exit of those U.S. forces.
但他承认，美国官员没有预料到，随着美军撤离，阿富汗局势会如此迅速地恶化。

Biden defended his decision, blaming Afghan security forces for their losses to the Taliban.
拜登为自己的决定辩护，指责阿富汗安全部队败给了塔利班。

He said the United States could not give them the will to fight for their future
他说，美国无法给他们为自己的未来而战的意志，

and he pledged that the United States would continue to speak up for human rights in Afghanistan, particularly the rights of women and girls
他承诺，美国将继续为阿富汗的人权，特别是妇女和女孩的权利发声。

under what is expected to be a hardline Islamic regime that will limit women's rights to education and to work.
预计阿富汗将处于强硬的伊斯兰政权的掌控下，将限制妇女受教育和工作的权利。
