Biden lays out plan for Afghanistan withdrawal
| President Biden on Wednesday laid out his plan to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan and end America’s longest war by the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that spurred the conflict.
“War in Afghanistan was never meant to be a multigenerational undertaking,” Biden said during a speech delivered in the Treaty Room of the White House where former President George W. Bush announced the start of the war. “It’s time to end the forever war.” |
