Trump’s interview with Fox News
The former president of the US was interviewed on Fox News, where they discussed Taliban’s taking over Afghanistan and how he had maintained everything with the Afghan government during his time at the President office of the US.
On Tuesday, the former US President blamed Biden for everything that is happening in Afghanistan, calling it “the greatest embarrassment” in the history of the United States.
Trump’s statement regarding the crisis
“It’s not that we left Afghanistan. It’s the grossly incompetent way we left!” Trump said in the interview.
“Afghanistan is the most embarrassing military outcome in the history of the United States. It didn’t have to be that way!” the president added.
Trump made his statement while talking about the deal that was made during his time with the Taliban.
He explained to the host Sean Hannity how he had warned presumed Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, the Taliban leader, in discussions which held last year that the US government would “strike back tenfold if American was harmed or the militants encroached on unapproved areas.”
