After about a month of back and forth, former White House press secretary Jen Psaki has agreed to speak with the House Foreign Affairs Committee about the Biden administration’s decision to leave Afghanistan.
Psaki, then an MSNBC host, has agreed to the sitdown maybe this month with the council, according to a text from her attorneys obtained by Forbes. The meeting will materialize before Chairman Michael McCaul , ( R- TX ) releases a statement on the activity, which will be sometime before the election in November.
Actually, the Trump presidency set a date of May 2021 to move all troops out of Afghanistan, but President Joe Biden delayed the date to Sept. 11, 2021. By late- August, the procedure was expedited and the Taliban took over control of the government. In Aug. 26, there was a suicide bombing at the Hamid Karzai International Airport, where persons were being airlifted out of the land, that killed 13 American troops and 170 Afghan people.
The Foreign Affairs Committee has been looking into the details of the procedure, checking whether there were any differences between what was being said in secret and what was being said to the general public. Psaki was in charge of making known what was going on inside the management to the general public as media minister. McCaul initially requested an interview in May, and she has since agreed to meet with the president on July 26 for an exam.

Politico claimed that the White House had been a hindrance in granting Psaki permission to conduct the discussion, but it recently said,” We will accept Ms. Psaki to join in a deliberate transcribed interview accompanied by private counsel and the White House counsel’s office subject to suitable terms and conditions for the interview.”
The Washington Examiner has reached out to the Foreign Affairs Committee, McCaul, and Psaki’s attorney, Emily Loeb.
