U.S. Evicted From Air Base In Uzbekistan by Robin Wright and Ann Scott Tyson Washington Post Staff Writers, July 30, 2005 Uzbekistan formally evicted the United States yesterday from a military base that has served as a hub for combat and humanitarian missions to Afghanistan since shortly after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, Pentagon and State Department officials said yesterday. In a highly unusual move, the notice of eviction from Karshi-Khanabad air base, known as K2, was delivered by a courier from the Uzbek Foreign Ministry to the U.S. Embassy in Tashkent, said a senior U.S. administration official involved in Central Asia policy. The message did not give a reason. Uzbekistan will give the United States 180 days to move aircraft, personnel and equipment, U.S. officials said. ... washingtonpost.com Now if every other country we occupy with our military bases would just please do us a major favor and evict us we'd be so much better off.
