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?

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.
