Lawmakers anxious that Taliban may try to get nuclear weapons
What is your strategy to stop Taliban from acquiring nuclear weapons? US lawmakers to Biden WION Web TeamNEW DELHI Aug 27, 2021, A group of US lawmakers has urged President Joe Biden to prevent the Taliban, Afghanistan’s de facto rulers, from destabilising Pakistan and acquiring nuclear weapons.
The lawmakers demanded that Biden answer critical questions about what happened in Afghanistan and his plans for the future.
“Are you willing to provide military support to regional allies if the Taliban militarise the Afghan border?”
In a letter addressed to Biden on Wednesday, a group of 68 lawmakers from the Senate and House of Representatives asked, “What is your plan to help ensure that the Taliban do not destabilise its nuclear neighbour Pakistan?”
The lawmakers stated that in recent weeks, the world has watched in astonishment as the Taliban took over Afghanistan with astonishing speed, as a result of “unforced errors made by withdrawing completely the small remaining footprint of our main military force from Afghanistan, and by unnecessarily delaying the evacuation of US personnel and Afghan partners.”,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, https://www.wionews.com/world/what-is-your-strategy-to-stop-taliban-from-acquiring-nuclear-weapons-us-lawmakers-to-biden-408837
