Pompeo: Biden 'failed' in Afghanistan withdrawal plan, is 'pathetic' for blaming Trump
Fox News
Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that the Biden administration has "failed" in its withdrawal from Afghanistan as the Taliban is poised to retake control of the country as the U.S. is ending its nearly 20-year military presence there.
"It looks like the Biden administration has just failed in its execution of its own plan," Pompeo told "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace. The Taliban, the Islamic extremist group that the U.S. had removed from power following the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 due to their harboring of mastermind Osama bin-Laden, has taken over large portions of Afghanistan, and Sunday morning was poised to take the capital city of Kabul. Meanwhile, the U.S. is evacuating its embassy.More Related News
