Friends, After two decades and the loss of thousands of American
lives, the precipitous deterioration of this situation has left many of
us with more questions than answers.

Friends-
I am heartbroken by the events taking place in Afghanistan.
After two decades and the loss of thousands of American lives, the
precipitous deterioration of this situation has left many of us with
more questions than answers.

Â
Most Americans agree that it is time for our military men and women to
come home, but this needed to be accomplished in a thoughtful and
strategic fashion. As we approach the 20th anniversary of September 11,
2001, a hotbed for terrorist activity has now been created in the Middle
East.
We need to know what information Joe Biden received from the
intelligence community that led him to make the decision to hastily
withdraw American troops from Afghanistan and if he followed the
recommendations of his foreign policy and national security advisors.
We also need to know why he didn't establish a functioning visa process
for the Afghan interpreters and our partners who are most at risk under
the brutal Taliban regime prior to withdrawal.
Many military advisors warned that a swift removal of U.S. troops could
lead to the same terrorist threats our country saw more than 20 years
ago. The President's apparent disregard for their concerns has now led
to an unmitigated national security disaster.
Â
More American troops are currently in Afghanistan than when Biden
announced the United States' withdrawal, all while our southern border
remains wide open for anyone to enter our country illegally.
Â
Last month, Biden said a Taliban takeover in Afghanistan was 'highly
unlikely,' that the Afghan government had 'all the tools, training and
equipment of any modern military' to keep themselves in power.
Clearly, the Administration got it wrong and Joe Biden must take
ownership for this foreign policy failure.
The brave men and women who serve our nation in uniform, the families
who have lost loved ones serving in Afghanistan and all Americans
deserve answers.
Sincerely,
Nicole Malliotakis
U.S. Representative
