The Epoch Times Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced on Wednesday that he has ordered internal reviews of the U.S. evacuation and relocation efforts from Afghanistan.
The United States withdrew from Afghanistan on Aug. 30, ending a two decade war that began in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks. President Joe Biden refused to extend the withdrawal deadline, even though over 100 Americans and thousands of Afghans who wanted to leave the country were left behind.
The Biden administrationâs handling of the withdrawal, and evacuation efforts, drew bipartisan condemnation, though it has been largely defended by top officials in the administration, including Blinken, although he has acknowledged that there were mistakes made.
