Joe Biden to meet Afghan president Ashraf Ghani and Abdullah Abdullah at White House on 25 June

Washington: Afghanistan president Ashraf Ghani and chairman of Afghanistan’s High Council for National Reconciliation Abdullah Abdullah are set to visit the United States to meet President Joe Biden. “President Biden looks forward to welcoming Afghan president Ashraf Ghani and Dr. Abdullah Abdullah, Chairman of the High Council for National Reconciliation, to the White House on 25 June, 2021,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said in a statement on Sunday. The visit by President Ghani and Dr Abdullah will highlight the enduring partnership between the United States and Afghanistan as the military drawdown continues, the statement added.

 This meet comes amid a dramatic surge in violence in Afghanistan with the withdrawal of US troops. Taliban has increased its spring offensive and attempted to siege more areas.

The United States said that it is committed to supporting the Afghan people by providing diplomatic, economic, and humanitarian assistance to support the Afghan people, including Afghan women, girls and minorities. “The US will remain deeply engaged with the government of Afghanistan to ensure the country never again becomes a safe haven for terrorist groups who pose a threat to the US homeland,” the statement said. The US continues to fully support the ongoing peace process and encourages all Afghan parties to participate meaningfully in negotiations to bring an end to the conflict, it added. Earlier, Biden announced that the US will start its final withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan on 1 May and complete its pullout ahead of the 20th anniversary of the 11 September terrorist attacks.
