Hasty US pullout led to Afghan government collapse, says exiled official
As the August 31 deadline approaches for the US to get out of Taliban-held Afghanistan, one Afghan official in exile says the pullout could have been "better managed and thought through."

Watch Ahmady's interview on an upcoming special episode of GZERO World.
