Former Defence Official and Ministerial Adviser Tyson Sara says it is an “understatement” to say the way the US Afghanistan evacuations were handled in the last few days was not “ideal”.
Regarding President Biden’s national address on Wednesday defending the withdrawal, he said “I think he said the things that he has to say”.
“The fact is that we’re out and he wanted us out, I think most of us could sense that there was no real easy or good way to get out of this conflict,” Mr Sara told Sky News Australia. “The way it was handled in the last few days weren’t ideal, which is an understatement, but I think he said the things he has to say.”
