The U.S. military withdrawal from Afghanistan has begun, just as the Taliban ramp up bombings in the region.
The move has received bipartisan backlash, with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., saying it would be a "grave mistake" to withdraw before ensuring the Taliban had been defeated. "Leaders in both parties, including me, offered criticism when the prior administration floated the concept of a reckless withdrawal from Syria and Afghanistan," McConnell said, referring to the original Trump administration timeline.More Related News
