Joe Biden: Five key blunders from US President's time in the White House


4.) Withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan

A report published last month faulted the Biden administration for the chaos that unfolded during the final days of the occupation in Afghanistan.

US armed forces helped to lead an evacuation of troops and civilians from the middle-eastern country the previous summer.

However, the withdrawal itself was accused of being short-sighted and resulting in scenes where Afghan civilians attempted to cling to departing US aircraft, leading to casualties.

More than a dozen US servicemen were also killed when a suicide bomber detonated themselves outside Kabul airport, where masses of civilians had gathered.
