'Joe Biden betrayed us,' say protesting Afghans. World will pay for US' blunder

Published on Aug 16, 2021 09:51 pm IST

His move to hastily withdraw troops, a continuation of predecessor Donald Trump's decision, has led to the Taliban swiftly defeating the elected government and taking control of the country. Amid scenes of panic-stricken civilians scrambling to escape the country, and countries rushing to evacuate their citizens, the fear of Afghanistan turning into a terror-exporting hub is growing. Can Biden's mistakes, with repercussions for the entire globe, be fixed?
