They have completely surrendered to the Taliban. They surrendered Bagram Air Force Base which was a major NATO hub. They surrendered $85 billion worth of equipment and weapons that we should have gotten out of there,\u201d Haley told CBS News\u2019 Major Garrett.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have surrendered the American people and actually withdrew our troops before they withdrew the American people. And they have abandoned our Afghan allies to kept people like my husband safe while they were overseas deploying. So, no. There was no negotiating. This was a complete and total surrender and an embarrassing failure,\u201d Haley said.<\/p>\n<p>Haley defended former President Donald Trump\u2019s decision to withdraw from Afghanistan. As part of a deal with the Taliban, the Trump administration pushed the Ashraf Ghani-led Afghan government to <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2020\/07\/28\/afghanistan-ashraf-ghani-taliban-prisoners-peace-talks-ceasefire-eid-al-fitr\/\">release<\/a> 5,000 Taliban soldiers from prison. The Taliban agreed to prevent terrorist groups like al-Qaida from operating in the areas it controlled, but was in <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2020\/06\/01\/taliban-al-qaida-violate-agreement\/\">violation<\/a> of that provision of the agreement as early as July 2020. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2020\/02\/29\/taliban-peace-afghanistan-pompeo-trump\/\">(RELATED: US Signs Peace Deal With Taliban, Will Withdraw All Troops If Taliban Keeps Commitments)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe truth is under four years of Trump, Afghanistan was safe,\u201d she continued. \u201cWe made sure we kept terrorism at bay and that we came from a strengthened position. What has happened in seven months of Biden is we have completely surrendered and humiliated ourselves in the eyes of the world. The thing is, there are times when you have to negotiate with the devil, but you negotiate with the devil from a point of strength,\u201d Haley said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou don\u2019t do it from a point of weakness. We literally have no leverage right now with the Taliban. All we\u2019re going to see them do is they\u2019re going to bide time and act like they are going to be nice until Aug. 31 and then all of those women, all of those girls, everything is going to go back to the way it was. You will have sex slaves, child marriages, kids or girls that are no longer allowed in schools.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some Afghan women have protested the Taliban\u2019s requirement that they wear burqas, with the terrorist organization reportedly <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/08\/18\/taliban-reportedly-kills-woman-burqa\/\">killing<\/a> one woman for leaving her house without covering up. Zarifa Ghafari, the first female mayor in Afghanistan\u2019s history, <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/08\/16\/afghanistans-first-female-mayor-taliban-kill-her\/\">told<\/a> iNews on Aug. 15 that she is \u201cwaiting for [the] Taliban to come for people like her\u201d and \u201ckill\u201d her.<\/p>\n<p>Haley emphasized that she was not criticizing the decision to withdraw, however.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not about soldiers coming out, it\u2019s not what you do, it\u2019s how you do it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley panned the Biden administration\u2019s Afghanistan withdrawal strategy as a \u201ccomplete and total surrender\u201d to the Taliban during a Sunday appearance on Face &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-672266","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/672266","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=672266"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/672266\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=672266"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=672266"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=672266"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
