Trump calls U.S. military equipment loss in Afghanistan ‘most embarrassing moment’
U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday described the abandoning of military equipment during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan as “the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country.”
“We had the embarrassment in Afghanistan, where we gave up billions and billions of dollars of military equipment — the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country, I believe,” Trump said during a press conference with tech entrepreneur Elon Musk.
Trump has frequently raised the issue of military equipment in past appearances, using it to highlight what he views as poor logistical and strategic planning during the exit.
