Yep, I've got Sky news on in the background. As you say, heartbreaking.

IMHO Whilst Biden should be aportioned the majority of the blame here (As he could of changed position) Trump can't be allowed to escape completely guilt free. Both have used the withdrawal as an attempt to secure victory in elections (Biden in the upcoming mid terms) NATO (inc UK) have showed that it's follow the US.

My worst fear is that the NATO organisations are allowed to leave. Then, the crackdown begins.
