President Joe Biden on Wednesday formally announced his decision to withdraw American troops from Afghanistan before September 11, the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon that led the US into its longest war.

"We cannot continue the cycle of extending or expanding our military presence in Afghanistan hoping to create the ideal conditions for our withdrawal, expecting a different result," Biden said.

"I am now the fourth American president to preside over an American troop presence in Afghanistan. Two Republicans. Two Democrats," he added. "I will not pass this responsibility to a fifth."

In a sign he views his remarks as a historic bookend to the prolonged conflict, he delivered them from precisely the same spot in the White House Treaty Room that President George W. Bush announced the start of the war on October 7, 2001.



Afterward he'll visit the section of Arlington National Cemetery where many of America's war dead from Afghanistan are buried.


Biden will say that American diplomatic and humanitarian efforts will continue in Afghanistan and would support peace efforts between the Afghan government and the Taliban. But he'll be unequivocal that two decades after it began, the Afghanistan war is ending.

"It is time to end America's longest war. It is time for American troops to come home," he said.



Biden said the withdrawal will begin on May 1, in line with an agreement President Donald Trump's administration made with the Taliban. He said the complete withdrawal will be done by September 11.

The deadline Biden has set is absolute, with no potential for extension based on worsening conditions on the ground. Officials said after two decades of war, it was clear to the President that throwing more time and money at Afghanistan's problems wasn't going to work.

"This is not conditions-based," a senior administration official heavily involved in the deliberations said on Tuesday. "The President has judged that a conditions-based approach, which has been the approach of the past two decades, is a recipe for staying in Afghanistan forever."



Some US troops will remain to protect American diplomats, though officials declined to provide a precise number.

Afghan President Ashraf Ghani said Wednesday he spoke to Biden and that he "respects the US decision."

"Afghanistan's proud security and defense forces are fully capable of defending its people and country, which they have been doing all along, and for which the Afghan nation will forever remain grateful," Ghani said on Twitter.

Trump has been vindicated

I expect same replica in Borno state cuz it's obvious the war has become stale and needless

Anyways, I miss action man Trump....you'll see this nigga addressing Americans and it's as though a teddy bear is speaking

Good one their from Mr biden,afghans should take responsibility for it own country.

Lives of thousands of american soldiers and trillions of dollars lost to endless wars in the middle east.

This endless wars is one major factor causing huge budget deficits.

Wow.

Damnnn niggarrrr...
911

That year.....

I had a vision that biden couldn't complete his tenure.
I pray for God's will and intervention in the US.
Also I pray for peace and unity in NIGERIA, Amen.

Modified:

Those of you quoting me, ya all need brain surgery,

Anyway, the vision didn't state he died but was removed from office.

Good

It's time for USA to interfere in Nigeria's political & economic affairs.




A dead has been ruling over 200 million people for over 4 years now

Finally, the long awaited withdrawal

Nothing vulture griller nor go see for inside buhari yansh

The 911 attacks is one of the greatest scams in the history of mankind.

Once again, America went to a war and failed.

Who will help us withdraw our Southern Nigeria troops from Northern Nigeria now

Dalil8:
Good news for Jihadists, bad news for the rest of the world.

Afghanistan will once again become the breeding ground for new Islamic sects

You need to understand the genesis, U S created the problems from Afghanistan to Palestine to Libya to Syria etc, Biden knows what's right now that he is taking some good steps.

Finally.
Where are those prophets of doom, that says the Democrats are war mongers ?

How does this improve buhari government
