Joe Biden has made a decision about the August 31 deadline to withdraw from Afghanistan and it’s not good.
The Taliban had given Biden a “red line” saying that they wouldn’t agree to an extension of the deadline that Biden had arbitrarily picked.
From Daily Mail:
Suhail Shaheen, a member of the Taliban delegation in Qatar’s capital city Doha said Monday U.S. military continuing to evacuate past this month would amount to ‘extending occupation’ and that is ‘a red line’.
If the US or UK were to seek additional time to continue evacuations – the answer is no. Or there would be consequences,’ he told Sky News in an interview. ‘
‘It will create mistrust between us,’ Shaheen continued. ‘If they are intent on continuing the occupation it will provoke a reaction.’
