The collapse of the Afghan government and its security forces can be traced to a 2020 agreement between the Taliban and the Trump administration that promised a complete US troop withdrawal, senior Pentagon officials have told Congress.
Gen
Frank McKenzie, the head of central command, told the House armed
services committee that once the US troop presence was pushed below
2,500 as part of President Joe Biden’s decision in April to complete a
total withdrawal by September, the unraveling of the US-backed Afghan
government accelerated.
