Biden Assured Allies in June U.S. Would Ensure Kabul’s Stability

President Joe Biden told key allies in June that he would maintain enough of a security presence in Afghanistan to ensure they could continue to operate in the capital following the main U.S. withdrawal, a vow made before the Taliban’s rapid final push across the country, according to a British diplomatic memo seen by Bloomberg.

Biden promised U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and other leaders at the Group of Seven summit in Cornwall, England, that “critical U.S. enablers” would remain in place to keep Kabul safe following the drawdown of NATO forces, the note said. British officials determined the U.S. would provide enough personnel to ensure that the U.K. embassy in Kabul could continue operating.

That was the point at which our allies should have immediately expedited getting all of their people out.

After this mess just imagine how allies who depend on our support look at their defense posture. If I was Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, the Philippines I would start looking to buy nuclear missiles.

Whoever follows Biden is going to have to be tough as nails because the world Biden leaves behind will be a very messed up place.

"President" Joe Biden told key allies in June that he would maintain enough of a security presence in Afghanistan to ensure they could continue to operate in the capital following the main U.S. withdrawal,

Just like Neville Chamberlain assured Britain that Hitler would not be a threat to anyone's peace and security.
