WASHINGTON: In the midst of the deep crisis in Afghanistan, United States President Joe Biden defended his steps to attract troops from the country, by saying history would record this as “logical, rational and appropriate decisions”.
The Biden government has received criticism from several quarters for the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan as the Taliban capturing power, resulting in chaos and death.
However, he stood with his decision.
“I think history will record this is a logical, rational and appropriate decision to make,” he told reporters in the interaction in the White House.
Indian-American politicians and former US envoys to the United Nations Nikki Haley said earlier that day, “they (US Administration) have surrendered Americans and really interesting our troops before they attract American people.
They have left our Afghan ally What makes people like my husband are safe while they are abroad deploying.
So, no, no negotiations.
This is a complete and total surrender and embarrassing failure.
“Biden said the Taliban had to make a fundamental decision.
“Will the Taliban try to be able to unite and provide the welfare of the people of Afghanistan, who has never been done by a group?” And if it’s whether, it will need everything from additional aid, in terms of economic assistance, trade, and various things, “he said.” The Taliban has said – we will see if it means or not – they’re looking for legitimacy.
They seek legitimacy to determine whether they will be recognized or not by other countries.
They have told other countries, as well as us, they don’t want us to move our diplomatic presence completely.
All of this all just speaks now, said the US President.
He said that by far the Taliban did not take action against US forces, in general following what they said in terms of allowing Americans to pass through, and the like.
“I’m sure they don’t control all their troops.
This is the power of Ragtag.
So, we will see.
We will see if what they say is true,” said Biden.
He said that in the range of 36 hours, the US had raised around 11,000 people from Kabul.
“In more than 30 hours this weekend, we have evacuated a large number of people, because I will detail in a minute: around 11,000 individuals.
That number will change everyday because of air and land surgery in Kabul vary, ‘he said.
Priority The first is to make American citizens get out of the country quickly and as safe as possible, he said.
“In the direction of me, the Department of Foreign Affairs continues to reach the remaining Americans that we have identified by telephone, email.
, and other ways to ensure their existence and their plans, “he added.
The US also evacuated NATO allied residents and their partners, including their diplomats, their embassy staff who remained in Afghanistan and took them back to their homes.
Well.” When we do this , We also work to move our Afghan ally, which stands with us side by side, and other Afghans who are vulnerable like women and journalists, abroad, “he added.” This morning, we have evacuated nearly 28,000 in August 14th, on US aircraft And the coalition, including the civil charter, brings the total number of people we have evacuated from July to around 33,000 people, “he said.” In one 24-hour period this weekend, 23 US military flights – including 14 C-17S, 9 flights C- 130 flights carry 3,900 passengers.
We see no reason why this tempo will not be maintained.
During the same period, our military facilitates 35 other charter flights that bring an additional nearly 4,000 evables to other countries that take it out, “he added.
Biden said the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan was a ‘logical, rational and true’ decision ‘
