In his first interview following the Taliban capture of Afghanistan, President Joe Biden defended his choice to withdraw from Afghanistan and said it was impossible to do so without “chaos ensuing.”
“No, I don’t think it could have been handled in a way that, we’re gonna go back in hindsight and look—but the idea that somehow, there’s a way to have gotten out without chaos ensuing, I don’t know how that happens. I don’t know how that happened,” Biden told ABC News in a pre-recorded interview on Wednesday.
