Top Biden aide questioned on whether president understands ‘full picture’ on Afghanistan
Fox News
National security adviser Jake Sullivan was questioned during a press briefing Monday on whether President Biden understands the "full picture" about the potential terrorism threat coming out of Afghanistan now that the Taliban have taken over the country.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken later appeared to contradict Biden, telling Fox News on Sunday that there are still "remnants" of the terrorist group in Afghanistan but that its "capacity has been very successfully diminished." During a White House press briefing Monday afternoon, Fox News’ Peter Doocy pointed out the apparent discrepancy, asking Sullivan whether officials were "presenting the president with the full picture" or if he was "just misapplying the intelligence" when he made his comments.More Related News
