Military expert Elbridge Colby told The New Yorker about this.Colby previously held the position of Deputy Assistant to the Defense Minister for Strategy and Armed Forces Development. He believes that the remorse over the failure in Afghanistan is a “flower” compared to what the US expects in the future.
