Biden blames Trump administration transition for chaotic 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan

The White House issued a statement Thursday in regards to the Pentagon releasing their reports on the 2021 military withdrawal from Afghanistan to Congress. “Transitions matter. That’s the first lesson learned here, and the incoming administration wasn’t afforded much of one. Thus, President Biden’s choice was stark; either withdrawal all our forces or resume fighting with the Taliban. He chose the former,” said John Kirby, National Security Council Strategic Communications Coordinator.
