ON SUNDAY AS PRESIDENT BIDEN SAYS THE AUGUST 31 WITHDRAWAL OF TROOPS MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED TALIBAN WARNS NO EXTENSIONS
" Taliban Spokesman Suhail Shahneen Has Said Such A Move By The U.S. Or The U.K. Would Bring "Consequences."
August 23, 2021 By Englebrook Independent News,
WASHINGTON, DC.- The Taliban says the August 31, 2021 Deadline for the withdrawal of international troops from Afghanistan is a redline and that no extensions will be allowed.
On Sunday, August 22, 2021, President Biden said that personnel may need to stay beyond the August 31 date to continue the evacuation of all Americans and Afghan allies that aided forces over the 20 year war. Britain has urged The U.S. to extend the evacuation deadline and Prime Minister Boris Johnson said he will press Biden at the emergency G7 meeting on Tuesday.
Biden seems unconcerned as Taliban Spokesman Suhail Shaheen has such a move by The United States or The United Kingdom would mean they are extending the occupation, and any move would bring consequences, creating mistrust between the two sides.
As the August 31, 2021 deadline fastly approaches this could mean that thousands of Americans could possible become hostages and tens of thousands of Afghans will face imminent death.
