FRANCE 24 English published this video item, entitled “Khalilzad, US envoy who brokered Afghan exit, quits • FRANCE 24 English” – below is their description.
Zalmay Khalilzad, the veteran #US envoy whose months of patient hotel-ballroom diplomacy helped end the US war in #Afghanistan but failed to prevent a #Taliban takeover, resigned on Monday. In a letter to Secretary of State Antony #Blinken, Khalilzad defended his record but acknowledged that he came up short and said he wanted to step aside during the “new phase of our Afghanistan policy.” FRANCE 24’s Senior Reporter Catherine Norris-Trent was one of the very few Western reporters in Afghanistan, she tells us more.
