The United States' longest foreign war came to an end as the last
American troops departed Afghanistan’s Bagram Air Base on
August 15, 2021. On the same day, Taliban forces breached the
walls of Kabul, taking full control of the country as President
Ashraf Ghani fled. One Decision sits down with the former
Vice President of the National Assembly, Fawzia Koofi, and former
U.S. Marine and investor in the country, Jake Cusack, who also
helped to rescue hundreds fleeing the extremist group's return to
power. They delve into President Biden’s much-criticized
decision to proceed with pulling out American troops and
consequences it has had on the country, as well as America's
standing around the world. Resident analyst Sir Richard
Dearlove, who led the British intelligence agency MI6, also
weighs in on what may lie for Afghans under Taliban rule.
