In a recent speech in North Carolina, Donald Trump strongly criticized Joe Biden’s handling of the withdrawal from Afghanistan. He described the exit as looking “like fleeing,” arguing that the chaotic nature of the departure damaged the United States’ reputation on the world stage.
The former US President claimed that the Biden administration left behind significant military assets in the country. According to Trump, this includes combat aircraft and other equipment worth approximately $150 million, which are now in the hands of the Taliban group.
These remarks highlight that the US withdrawal from Afghanistan remains a contentious topic in American politics. Trump continues to assert that the process would have been handled much differently and more effectively had he remained in office.
