White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan told ABC’s “Good Morning America” Monday that the Biden administration and President Joe Biden “stands by” the decision to withdraw from Afghanistan, and complained that the breakdown of security “unfolded at unexpected speed.”
President Joe Biden has yet to be heard from and remains at Camp David Monday. The White House noted Sunday night that there would be no press availability for the president at all on Monday and that Biden will address the matter in the coming days. Requests for comment to the White House press office were returned with an “out of office” notification from Press Secretary Jen Psaki, who is reportedly on vacation until August 22nd.
