'In the wake of' nghĩa là ngay sau đó, sau sự kiện..., là kết quả của (following directly on, in the aftermath of, as a consequence of, as a result of some event).

Ví dụ
Forest renews itself in the wake of 'devastating' lake fire.

Pakistani communities reel in the wake of massive earthquake.

In the wake of Russian air campaign, U.S. to increase airstrikes in Syria.

Massive outside intervention at an early stage might have squelched (chấm dứt, làm im, làm cứng họng) the contending forces (các lực lượng tranh giành nhau) but would have required a long-term, substantial military presence to be sustained. In the wake of Iraq and Afghanistan, this was not feasible for the United States, at least not alone.
