Several top diplomats and military leaders under former President Barack Obama gave a grim update of the Biden administration’s retreat from Afghanistan.



On Monday, former U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan Ryan Crocker warned the White House is not adequately answering how it will get Americans and allies out of the country. He stressed that Biden gave up America’s ground-game when U.S. troops were pulled out of the country before non-military personnel. Crocker warned sending in helicopters and other aircraft to secure zones will be a challenge as the Taliban are well armed and are securing their control of Afghanistan.

He also took aim at the Biden administration’s reluctance to recognize Al -Qaeda as a credible threat. The former diplomat said the terrorist organization is not gone and is likely waiting for the opportune time to strike. Crocker then claimed that’s what the Taliban did over the past 20-years.
