Joe Biden has said the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan after 20 years of war will conclude on August 31 and added there will be no ‘mission accomplished’ moment to celebrate. ‘We did not go to Afghanistan to nation-build,’ the US president said. ’It is the right and the responsibility of the Afghan people alone to decide their future and how they want to run their country.’
His remarks come as the Taliban makes advances in the country, which some senior Afghan officials have blamed on the abrupt departure of US troops

Glad the US is pulling out. But the US should really help rebuild after bombing it to shit.
Mods: KMC broke the title, can you make it "Biden: No Mission accomplished moment." Thanks.
