KEY POINTS
  • Biden’s remarks, scheduled for 3:45 p.m. ET, will be his first since the Taliban ousted the Afghan national government on Sunday.
  • Despite being vastly outnumbered by the Afghan military, which has long been assisted by U.S. and NATO coalition forces, the Taliban entered Kabul and seized the presidential palace.
  • In April, Biden ordered the Pentagon to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan by Sept. 11, a decision he said was made in lockstep with NATO coalition forces.
  • Since the U.S. withdrawal, the Taliban carried out a succession of shocking battlefield gains.
