In response to Afghanistan International's question about the removal of people involved in America's withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Pentagon spokeswoman said, "There is no such thing going on."
President-elect Donald Trump had promised during his election campaigns that he would fire the officials involved in the withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Sabrina Singh, deputy spokeswoman for the Pentagon, on Thursday, October 13, at a press conference, rejected the actions to remove the people involved in the "confused" withdrawal of American forces from Afghanistan and said that the Pentagon had already conducted its own investigation into what happened in Afghanistan.
Singh said that the Pentagon had also completed its investigation into the attack on the Kabul airport in August 2021 earlier this year.
Sabrina Singh expressed ignorance about the new investigation about the departure from Afghanistan and the attack on the Kabul airport and said, "I am not aware of any other investigation that is currently underway in the US Department of Defence."
This official of the US Defence Ministry said that she does not intend to comment on the statements of Donald Trump, the president-elect of the US, regarding the dismissal of the officials involved in the withdrawal from Afghanistan.
She also did not provide specific statistics in response to Afghanistan International's reporter's question about the value of weapons left by the United States of America in the hands of the Taliban and said, "You can search for published information in this regard."
Donald Trump had previously announced the value of military weapons left by America in Afghanistan at 85 billion dollars.
Previously, Donald Trump had announced during his election campaign that in case of victory, the military officials who managed the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan would be asked to resign. Trump said, "I want their immediate resignation."
Trump also said before the US election, “If I were the president, the tragedy in Afghanistan would never have happened." He added that if he was the president, he would have kept the Bagram base, but now this base is in the possession of China.
Although there is still about a month left until Donald Trump enters the White House, he has pledged to investigate the "chaotic withdrawal" of American troops from Afghanistan and remove those responsible from the US government.
