President Joe Biden Declares The End Of The "Forever War" In Afghanistan
The conclusion to the United States’ war in Afghanistan has been in the works for years. A peace treaty was signed with the Taliban while former President Donald Trump was still in office in February 2020, and earlier this spring, current President Joe Biden announced that all American troops would be withdrawn from Afghanistan by September 11th.
Months later, President Biden and the White House have revealed that “98% percent of Americans in Afghanistan who wanted to leave were able to leave,” and during a national address on Tuesday, Biden officially declared the end to the United States’ war in Afghanistan.
