Germany has recently withdrawn the last contingent of its troops from Afghanistan after nearly 20 years of mission in the country. A contingent of around 570 soldiers was called back from Afghanistan on Tuesday as the security situation deteriorates, reported DW. Defence Minister A Kramp-Karrenbauer said, "This marks the end of a historic chapter - an intense deployment that has challenged and shaped us".
