Do you agree with the report? Do you accept responsibility for this chaos?

KJP: Look, what I am — the report came from the State Department. It’s an action — after-action report. I will just let it speak for itself. I’m just not going to comment further.

On 6/30/2023, Biden was defiant when asked if he would admit the U.S. made mistakes before and during its withdrawal. “Remember what I said about Afghanistan? I said al-Qaida would not be there,” Biden said. “I said we’d get help from the Taliban. What’s happening now? What’s going on? Read your press. I was right.”

On 6/30/2023, The State Department failed to do enough planning before the collapse of the U.S.-backed government in Afghanistan, according to a Biden administration review of the department’s performance during the chaotic evacuation of Americans and Afghan allies. The review repeatedly blames the administrations of both former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden for their efforts before and after the August 2021 departure of U.S. forces from Kabul. The U.S. evacuated an estimated 124,000 Afghans from the country. Republicans have in turn accused Biden of not taking responsibility for intelligence failures.
