Biden accused “surrendered and escaped” leadership of Afghanistan

The leadership of Afghanistan surrendered to the fight against the militants of the Taliban radical movement (prohibited in the Russian Federation), despite the powerful support from the United States, and the Americans should not continue to lead this war instead of the Afghans themselves. This was stated on Monday President Joe Biden, speaking with appeal to fellow citizens in connection with the situation in Afghanistan, the translation was broadcast in the official account of the president in twitter .

He noted that in Washington “soberly watched” on the risk that arose as a result of the withdrawal of US troops, but the events developed faster than expected.

“What happened? The political leadership of Afghanistan surrendered and ran out of the country. The Armed Forces of Afghanistan collapsed, sometimes they did not even try to join the battle,” the president said. Biden added that the conclusion of the US troops was the right decision, since the US military cannot and “should not fight and die in the war, which Afghan forces themselves do not want to behave.”

Also, Biden during the appeal noted that it was distinguished by what was happening in the republic, but does not regret the withdrawal of troops. According to him, a further stay of the US strength in the country would threaten big losses.
