Manuel Serrano, CNN Portugal commentator, analyses the United States' response to the September 11, 2001 attacks. According to Serrano, this initial response ended up escalating to a broader desire to restructure the entire Middle East.
The commentator considers that the objectives set in the wake of these events were unattainable. His analysis draws a portrait of the current state of the world and international politics, taking as reference events from more than two decades ago.
The article presents Serrano's reflections on the long-term consequences of the political decisions made after September 11, suggesting that the initial intervention in Middle Eastern countries had broader implications than initially foreseen.
