Trump’s team is looking to sue the perpetrators of the withdrawal from Afghanistan
The American media, quoting informed sources, reported that the members of the transition team of President-elect Donald Trump are preparing a list of military officers and perpetrators of America’s “disastrous withdrawal” from Afghanistan to appear in a military court on charges of treason.
According to RCO News Agency, intelligence and media sources reported that following Trump’s victory in the November 5 election, his transition team has started to compile a list of American officials and military officers who were directly involved in the withdrawal of the United States from Afghanistan.
According to the report of “NBC News“, Trump’s transition team, in addition to collecting this list, is investigating the possibility and how to sue these people in a military court.
An American official and a person with knowledge told this network that the members of the transition team of the President-elect of the United States of America have formed a commission to investigate how to withdraw American forces from Afghanistan in 2021 and to create a list of perpetrators and officers involved in this “disaster” to investigate. Whether they can introduce these people to the military court on charges of “treason” or not.
This American network reported, quoting an informed official: “Trump’s transition team has taken this issue seriously. Matt Flynn, the former Deputy Secretary of Defense of the United States, participates in this process. This commission operates within the framework of how America entered the war against Afghanistan and its final withdrawal from this country.
Flynn’s attorney has denied the report. “Matt Flynn has no role in Trump’s transition team,” he told NBC News. “He is not leading any commission or investigation about the army.”
This American channel also reported that Trump has always criticized the current US President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw his troops from Afghanistan. Trump has announced this incident as “the most shameful day in American history”.
NBC News reported that it was unclear what would legally justify the “treason” charges because the military officers were following the president’s order.
On the other hand, this network also reminded that the Trump team and his own efforts to make Biden guilty while an independent investigation in 2022 by the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction held both the Trump and Biden administrations responsible for the chaotic exit of the United States in 2021. knew
In 2020, Trump agreed with the Taliban to withdraw all American forces from Afghanistan and release 5,000 soldiers of this group from prison. The Biden government also acted in line with this agreement.
According to NBC News, in line with the implementation of Trump’s agreement, the Biden administration “overestimated the ability of the current Afghan government to fight the Taliban.”
On the other hand, “Pete Hegst”, the host of Fox News and Trump’s choice for the position of Defense Minister, has also criticized the withdrawal of the United States from Afghanistan. In his book titled “War on the Militants”, he called for the deportation of many of the perpetrators of the “disastrous withdrawal of America from Afghanistan” and wrote: “Many should be deported.” There must be extensive changes in the Pentagon.”
Earlier, Reuters reported, citing sources familiar with the matter, that Trump’s transition team is preparing a list of military officers to be fired, possibly including the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, which would be an unprecedented change in the Pentagon.
In an interview with Reuters, one of these sources questioned the possibility of a mass dismissal from the Pentagon. It’s also unclear whether Trump himself will approve the plan, although in the past he has come down hard on military leaders who have criticized him.
During his election campaign, Trump also talked about the dismissal of the WOC generals and those who were responsible for the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021. The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The second source also said: “Anyone promoted and appointed by Milli will be destroyed.” “There is a very detailed list of all Milly’s dependents, and they will all disappear.”
The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff consists of the highest-ranking officers of the United States military and consists of the heads of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, National Guard, and Space Force.
