Kabul 24: Donald Trump; In his speech on the last day of the Republican National Convention, the former president of the United States emphasized the need to keep the Bagram military base in Afghanistan in the hands of the American forces before they leave the country and said that he “loved” this base.
He also said that the base is now “in the possession of China”.
US presidential candidate Donald Trump said in his speech on the last day of the Republican National Convention that China has taken control of the Bagram base.
Trump criticized Joe Biden for evacuating the Bagram base and leaving $85 billion worth of military weapons in Afghanistan.
“They also gave up Bagram, one of the largest bases in the world with the longest, most powerful and thickest airstrips,” Mr. Trump added. We let it go. And I loved it, not because of Afghanistan. I loved him because of China. It is an hour away from where China builds its nuclear weapons. And you know who has it now? “China now has it.”
This is despite the fact that Trump has made statements about this base before.
