Former President George W. Bush 'deeply concerned' Afghanistan troop withdrawal will 'create a vacuum'
Fox News
Former President George W. Bush told Fox News he doesn’t think withdrawing U.S. troops from Afghanistan is "necessary," saying he is "deeply concerned" that a "vacuum" will be created without a U.S. presence in the region.
During an exclusive interview with Fox News about his new book, "Out of Many, One: Portraits of America's Immigrants," Bush discussed Biden's decision, referencing a portrait of Roya Mahoob, an Afghan woman who fled to Iran, escaping Taliban’s "brutal oppression" of women in Afghanistan. "I’ve always warned that no U.S. presence in Afghanistan will create a vacuum, and into that vacuum is likely to come people who treat women as second class citizens," Bush, who was president during the 9/11 attacks, told Fox News, saying he spoke to Mahoob after Biden's announcement.
