Historic US defeat in Afghanistan under leadership of President Joe Biden

Washington – Former US President Donald Trump has expressed his anger over the worst defeat in the history of the United States in Afghanistan under President Joe Biden. US opposition leaders, the media and various organisations have expressed serious concern over the situation in Afghanistan and criticised President Biden. But instead of responding to criticism from around the world, White House spokeswoman Jane Sackie proceeded on vacation. President Biden is also said to be on holiday at Camp David. It was reported that President Biden would address the American people on the situation in Afghanistan on Monday night.

A few days ago, Trump attacked Biden, who had utterly failed to address the situation in Afghanistan. Citing his failure, Trump asked the American people, ‘Do you remember me?’

In the wake of the horrific crisis in the Afghan capital, Kabul, on Sunday and Monday, Trump bluntly underlined President Biden’s failure. Trump has slammed it as the worst defeat in US history. Former United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo blamed Biden’s weakness for the crisis in Afghanistan.

‘If I had a strong president like Trump and had the Secretary of State, the Taliban would not have done this in Afghanistan. The Taliban would have come to realise that it would have to pay a heavy price. I would have taught the Taliban the same lesson I had taught Qasem Soleimani, the head of Iran’s Quds Force,’ Pompeo said. Former United States Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley said that everything depended on not the decision to withdraw but the way of withdrawal.

Nikki Haley attacked the Biden administration saying, ‘Biden’s administration is pleading with the Taliban for the safe release of its officers and staff in Afghanistan. No one expected that the sacrifice of the US troops in Afghanistan would end in this manner’. US Senator Michael Waltz expressed a serious concern, ‘The Taliban will once again make Afghanistan a haven for terrorists. Taliban-sponsored terrorism could lead to more attacks in the United States shortly.’

Not only the leaders in the opposition but also the media and some organisations have criticised Biden’s inefficiency in Afghanistan. White House spokeswoman Jane Sackie was not available for comment. It is learned that she has been on vacation for that week. Therefore, the Biden administration seems to be trying to evade questions from the media and the public. President Biden is also vacationing at Camp David. With such a dire situation in Afghanistan, his holiday has been the subject of US national criticism.

However, it is being reported that the Biden administration was shocked by the Taliban’s sudden aggression. The Biden administration did not expect the Taliban to reach the capital, Kabul, so quickly, some news agencies claimed. But observers worldwide are dismissing the claim, saying it is ‘impossible’ for a country like the United States to be unaware of the Taliban’s activities. The Taliban’s advance was expected by the United States. The Biden administration and the Taliban have already reached a deal in this matter, say international observers.
