US President Joe Biden said Monday it was no longer the United States’ responsibility to fight in Afghanistan’s civil war, despite disturbing scenes of the Taliban taking control of the capital city of Kabul. Biden warned of swift retaliation if the Taliban attacked remaining U.S. personnel and Afghan allies as the nearly 20-year conflict comes to a close. VOA’s congressional correspondent Katherine Gypson has more from Washington.
