WASHINGTON, Sept 1 — Facing sharp criticism over the tumultuous US withdrawal from Afghanistan, President Joe Biden said yesterday it was the best available option to end both the United States’ longest war and decades of fruitless efforts to remake other countries through military force.

“This decision about Afghanistan is not just about Afghanistan. It’s about ending an era of major military operations to remake other countries,” he said. But Biden’s decision is far from popular: 51 per cent of Americans disapprove of his approach to the pullout and only 38 per cent support it, according to Reuters/Ipsos polling. He has faced criticism from Republicans and fellow Democrats, as well as from foreign allies.

While crowds lined the streets of the eastern city of Khost for a mock funeral with coffins draped with Western flags, long lines formed in Kabul outside banks closed since the fall of the capital. Separately, he signed legislation to provide aid to Americans returning from Afghanistan. European Union countries proposed to step up assistance to Afghanistan and its neighbours.
