The White House released a report about the Afghanistan withdrawal while insisting that the report was not about accountability. The report appeared to not indicate any faults that Joe Biden may have had in plannings related to the evacuation. However, the report appears to shift some blame to Donald Trump’s administration. The Trump Administration apparently placed constrictions on the evacuation.<\/p>\n

Fox News senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy pressed Kirby on the report, which admitted the intelligence surrounding the situation in Afghanistan was inaccurate, and asked who from the administration would be fired over the failures and whether President Biden could trust the information given to him in his future daily briefings.<\/p>\n

“The purpose of the document that we’re putting out today is to sort of collate the chief reviews and findings of the agencies that did after action reviews. The purpose of it is not accountability. The purpose of it is to study lessons learned,” Kirby said, avoiding directly answering the question.<\/p>\n

He went on to admit that certain pieces of intelligence “weren’t accurate,” but said the White House was trying to be honest with the American people about what shaped Biden’s decision-making on Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

“This document and this effort isn’t about accountability today. It’s about understanding,” Kirby reiterated. “The review process isn’t over. This is the next muscle movement in what will be a long process to better understand and comprehend and adjust to what we learned and what we did in Afghanistan.”<\/p>\n

Kirby was later asked by another reporter how the Trump administration was responsible for the “disorganized and chaotic” withdrawal from Afghanistan, specifically concerning the evacuation flights from the airport.<\/p>\n

He responded by detailing the “hectic” process of setting up the airport for evacuations, but ultimately dismissed the notion that the evacuation was chaotic despite the estimated thousands of Americans and Afghan allies left behind.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
