Donald Trump blames Joe Biden for Afghanistan crisis, demands US President's resignation

Former US President's statement comes amid Taliban capturing Afghan capital Kabul on Sunday.

Washington: Former US President Donald Trump called on his successor Joe Biden to step down after the Afghan government collapsed and the Taliban ceased control of Afghanistan`s capital Kabul. Trump, in a statement on Sunday, said that it was time for the incumbent US president, Joe Biden, to resign, "for what he has allowed happening in Afghanistan, along with the tremendous surge in COVID-19, the Border catastrophe, the destruction of energy Independence, and our crippled economy." The ex-US president went on to say that it "shouldn`t be a big deal" since, according to Trump`s version of events, Biden "wasn`t elected legitimately in the first place!". His statement comes after the Afghanistan government collapsed on Sunday with President Ashraf Ghani leaving the country and the Taliban`s entry into the capital.
