Biden Calls Afghan Pullout Deadline of May 1 Tough
US President Joe Biden has said that it will be “tough” for the US to meet a May 1st deadline to withdraw American troops from Afghanistan, but that the complete drawdown won’t take much longer.
“That was not a very solidly negotiated deal that the president, the former president, worked out,” Biden said in an interview with ABC News.
“We’re in consultation with our allies as well as the government and that decision is in process now,” he said.
The deadline to end America’s longest war six weeks from now was set under an agreement reached by former President Donald Trump and the Taliban, without the buy-in of the Afghan government.
