    If this isnrCOt failure, what does failure look like, asks CNNrCOs Clarissa Ward

    "CNN's Clarissa Ward made a scathing rebuttal to President Joe BidenrCOs claim that American withdrawal from Afghanistan as the Taliban swiftly took power had not been a failure.

    "Ward, the channelrCOs chief international correspondent, reported live from Kabul, where she has been describing chaotic and desperate scenes as Afghan people tried to escape the country."

    "'You have Taliban fighters with whips, with guns. You have US and UK soldiers who are not allowing people in. You have mixed messaging coming through about what kind of paperwork you need and how you can get on a flight and where you can go.

    rCL'It is just an absolute mess. And we heard President Biden say yesterday in his comments to ABC News that this is not a failure, and I think a lot of people outside that airport... would like to know: if this isnrCOt failure, what does failure look like exactly?'rCY
