Joe Biden accepts his decision to withdraw his troops from Afghanistan

And he did not mince words to justify his decision to withdraw US troops from Afghanistan. And this despite the current crisis. “I am very sad about what is happening, but I do not regret my decision to withdraw and withdraw US troops from Afghanistan. This is not our war. It is not in our interest or that of our security ”. Above all, the president does not want Afghanistan to be the Vietnam of his youth.
