US failed to plan for Afghanistan collapse: Report
Hindustan Times
|July 02, 2023
The State Department failed to do enough planning before the collapse of the US-backed government in Afghanistan, according to a Biden administration review of the department's performance during the chaotic evacuation of Americans and Afghan allies.
-
The review repeatedly blames the administrations of both former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden for their efforts before and after the August 2021 departure of US forces from Kabul. The US evacuated an estimated 124,000 Afghans from the country.
Republicans have in turn accused Biden of not taking responsibility for intelligence failures leading up to the Taliban's seizure of the country and for the scenes of chaos at Kabul's airport, where 13 US troops and about 170 Afghans died in a suicide bombing.
Biden was defiant when asked Friday if he would admit the US made mistakes before and during its withdrawal.
