On Sunday, the Taliban moved into Kabul while the country’s president fled and the regime collapsed. The situation has shaken both the United States and other allies, and there have been panicked conditions for evacuating people via the airport in the Afghan capital.
Several have compared the situation after 20 years of war with the situation when the United States withdrew from the Vietnam War. It all seems to have taken the Biden administration by surprise, and among his main critics is not surprising Trump.

– Legendary
– What Joe Biden has done with Afghanistan is legendary. It will go down in history as one of the greatest defeats in American history! Trump writes in a statement.
This is despite the fact that the situation in Afghanistan has arisen after a withdrawal of American forces Trump himself agreed with the Taliban last year. The Trump administration agreed with the Taliban to withdraw US forces by May this year. In exchange, the Taliban would provide a number of security guarantees, writes NTB.
Biden postponed this deadline for the withdrawal of US forces until the end of August.
– The time has come for Joe Biden to step down in disgrace for allowing what is happening to Afghanistan in addition to a huge upsurge in covid, the border disaster, the destruction of energy independence and our crippled economy. That should not be a big deal because he was not elected legitimately in the first place! claims Trump.
The former president has always claimed that the election was stolen from him without having presented any kind of documentation on these allegations.
Biden himself is expected to comment on the situation in Afghanistan in the near future. His foreign minister, Antony Blinken, flatly denies that the situation can be compared to the withdrawal from Vietnam.
“The US war in Afghanistan has been successful when we succeeded in our primary goal, which was to hold those responsible for 9/11 accountable,” Blinken told ABC News.
