'God-forsaken place': Biden under fire for 'disparaging' Afghanistan a year after chaotic U.S. exit

U.S. President Joe Biden has described Afghanistan a "God-forsaken place" a year after U.S. exit from the country. Biden made the remark while addressing war veterans at a pre-election rally in San Diego ahead of midterm polls. He also recounted his trips to the Afghan war zone as a senator and the U.S. Vice President. Meanwhile, the Taliban is miffed with Biden for calling Afghanistan a "God-forsaken place." The Taliban spokesperson, Zabiullah Mujahid, said "those making such remarks are doing so out of their frustration and envy for Afghanistan."
