Treaty or Agreement. Biden screwed up bigly.
The list of screw ups is too long to detail. But Biden's attempt to make political gains is just another on the long list of his fiascos.
BTW, how many Americans are yet unable to get out of AFG?
No, he didn't. Wars don't end cleanly. In 1973 some 2,500 Americans were believed left behind in Vietnam, listed as "missing in action" because no one knew whether they were dead or alive; of these, 1,600 still were unaccounted for in 2015. The last WWII Japanese soldier surrendered in 1972, 27 years after the war ended. In Afghanistan, we lost 13 soldiers on the way out, with no MIAs or POWs left behind.
Real war is not like the movies. It's much more chaotic and ill-defined. The withdrawal from Afghanistan was considerably cleaner than that from Vietnam.
