Afganisztán: Magyarország speciális alakulatot küld
Különleges felderítésre, közvetlen katonai akcióban való részvételre, katonai-biztonsági segítségnyújtásra, és a terrorizmus elleni harc katonai feladataira készítik fel a magyar katonákat.
Dosszié >>> Magyar katonák Afganisztánban
2008 őszétől két jelentős feladattal bővül az afganisztáni többnemzetiségű haderőben vállalt magyar szerep. Ennek egyikében valószínűleg az eddiginél sokkal veszélyesebb, egyebek közt járőrözési feladatokat kapnak a Nemzetközi Biztonsági Erők (ISAF) kabuli parancsnokságának alárendeltségében - nyilatkozta a katonai múlttal nem rendelkező Szekeres Imre vezette Honvédelmi Minisztérium.
Az ISAF által meghatározott műveletekben biztonsági-katonai segítségnyújtás lesz a munkája a magyar katonai alakulatok közül a szolnoki Bercsényi László Különleges Műveleti Zászlóalj első századának, amely 12-14 fős csoportokban, 3 hónapos váltásban egy évig lesz Afganisztánban. Kiképzési és tanácsadási feladataik lesznek, de a járőrözés az eddiginél nagyobb felelősséget ró a különlegesen kiképzett felderítőkre. Továbbá 2008 őszén Magyarország átveszi a kabuli nemzetközi repülőtér irányítását. A közel 200 fős többnemzetiségű csapatba legfeljebb 40 magyar katonát, többnyire légiirányítókat vezényelnek. A vezető nemzet szerepet kapó magyarok hathavi váltásokban fognak szolgálni.
- Nem, azért fognak minket kiküldeni, hogy megkeressük Oszama bin Ladent – mondta újságíróknak a zászlóalj parancsnoka, Simon Attila ezredes. A parancsnok - aki visszautasította kommandós kifejezés használatát - speciális elit alakulatról beszélt, amely a hagyományostól eltérő harceljárásmódot alkalmaz kis csoportokban, nem olyan felszereléssel és fegyverekkel, mint például egy lövészegység. Az ezredes szerint négy alapfeladatra készítik fel a csapat tagjait. Különleges felderítésre, közvetlen katonai akcióban való részvételre, katonai-biztonsági segítségnyújtásra, és a terrorizmus elleni harc katonai feladataira.
A két új feladatot Magyarország kizárólag a NATO afganisztáni műveleteiben látja el. A pár évvel ezelőtti alkotmánymódosítás nyomán erről a kormány dönthetett, amelyet idén júniusban jelentette be hivatalosan a NATO-ban.
Jelenleg 200 magyar katona tartózkodik Afganisztánban, akik a baglani úgynevezett Tartományi Újjáépítési Csoportot (PRT) tartják fenn és vezetik. Az egy év múlva kezdődő biztonsági-katonai segítségnyújtásban résztvevők a baglani PRT kontingensének terhére fognak szolgálni, vagyis nem növekszik az afganisztáni misszióban részt vevő katonák száma.
A témához kapcsolódik, hogy a Magyar Nemzet a múlt héten Tián Józseffel, ezredessel, a Csapatok Érdekvédelmi Szövetségének az elnökével készített interjút Magyarország biztonságával kapcsolatban.
– A terület védelmére szükséges erő nagyságát a haderő által használt fegyverek technikai mutatói határozzák meg – kezdte az ezredes. - Jelenlegi alapképességeink azt teszik lehetővé, hogy két darab 30-50 kilométer széles, 10-20 kilométer mélységű irányt zárjanak le katonáink. Csakhogy ha meg is fogják az ellenséget, ellencsapást már nem tudnának végrehajtani, nem állíthatnák vissza tehát az eredeti helyzetet. Ezek a csapatok ugyanis nélkülözik a kellő tüzértámogatást, légvédelmük gyakorlatilag nincs, alig kapnak saját légi támogatást. Csapataink mintegy 2-3 ezer négyzetkilométert tudnak tartani egy támadás esetén, s megválaszolhatatlan, hogy mi lesz addig a többi kilencvenegy-kétezerrel. Gyakorlatilag nincs említhető tüzérségünk, említésre méltó harckocsizó csapataink, megfelelő légvédelem. Légierőnk indokolatlanul kevés repülő eszközből áll – mondta lapnak Tián József. .
Mit keresnek magyar katonák Afganisztánban? Az afganisztáni misszióra költött pénzt nem lehetne másra fordítani, itthon, Magyarországon? Miért kell, hogy Magyarországra is ellenségként tekintsenek egyes megszállt országok polgárai?

Afganisztánban a honvédelmi miniszter
Baglán tartományban tájékozódik Szekeres Imre. Az ázsiai ország lakossága körében az ellenszenv folyamatosan nő a megszállók iránt, de a magyar katonák - ennek ellenére - maradnak. Védik a hont. Magyarország mintegy kétszáz katonával tavaly vette át Hollandiától a több mint 760 ezer lakosú, 63 ezer négyzetkilométer területű, észak-afganisztáni Baglán tartomány újjáépítési csoportjának vezetését Afganisztánban.
