Republican Leaders And NATO Criticize President Trump’s Plan To Reduce Troops In Afghanistan

 


McConnell says Trump’s move will “delight” U.S. enemies. 

Congressional Republicans on Monday slammed President Donald Trump’s plan for a swift reduction of U.S. troop presence in Afghanistan, warning that it would be a gift to America’s enemies and would undermine progress already made in the region. 

“A rapid withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan now would hurt our allies and delight the people who wish us harm,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said bluntly.



WNU Editor: There is a lot of opposition of this withdrawal from pundits .... Trump withdrawal plan could tip Afghanistan towards more violence (The Guardian), to the head of NATO .... NATO chief warns of high price if troops leave Afghanistan (AP). No comment yet from the Biden camp.

Bad Republicans (a.k.a. RINO's) have no plan to win and no pan to deal with the Taliban;s ally, Pakistan.

The Guardians are pundits? Well, not very good one. Nor are they a newspaper.
