Gen. Keane warns of Taliban takeover if US exits Afghanistan
President Biden's decision to withdraw all remaining U.S. troops from Afghanistan beginning May 1 is "reckless," Fox News senior strategic analyst and retired Army Gen. Jack Keane told "The Story" Wednesday.
"The reality is we have to stay focused on the mission and what the threat is," Keane told host Martha MacCallum,."I'm surprised somewhat that he's withdrawing with no conditions whatsoever," noting that while former President Donald Trump also set an exit date, he did so with conditions.
Keane then called out Biden’s statement that diplomacy will be at the center of his foreign policy and national security strategy, asking: "Why aren’t we putting that into play Negotiations with his conditions for a withdrawal to give our negotiators some leverage with the Taliban? We have walked away from that opportunity.
