Fox News
A confidential internal State Department memo was sent to Secretary of State Antony Blinken last month, warning against the potential collapse of Afghanistan following the full withdrawal of U.S. forces on Aug. 31, Fox News confirmed Thursday.
The cable, dated July 13, additionally provided suggestions on what should be done to counter the threat from the insurgent group and speed up the evacuation process. Among the recommendations made to the department was the suggestion to use "tougher language" when describing the atrocities that the Taliban had already committed.More Related News
