Biden Admin Omitted Impassioned Plea by Emmanuel Macron to Show Moral Responsibility in Afghanistan from White House Readout

To top off their disastrous week following the freefall of Afghanistan into the hands of the Taliban the Biden Administration omitted the impassioned plea by Macron to the Biden administration to show moral responsibility by evacuating Afghan allies from the Taliban-controlled region.

The White House's readout of a call between Joe Biden and Emmanuel Macron on the crisis in Afghanistan leaves out an impassioned plea from the French president that the US and its allies have a "Moral responsibility" to evacuate Afghan allies.

The French government's readout of the conversation was released on Friday, a day after the call took place, and indicates that Macron emphasised ensuring the safe evacuation of Afghan citizens who assisted American and European troops over the past 20 years at great risk to themselves and their families.

According to the readout, Macron described the mission to evacuate allies as a "Moral responsibility" and told Biden: "We cannot abandon them."

The Élysée said Macron "Underlined the absolute need to ensure rapid and concrete coordination among allies on the ground to continue the evacuations".

The White House version made no mention of a "Moral responsibility" to evacuate Afghan allies.

"They lauded the tireless efforts of their personnel working closely together in Kabul on the evacuation of their citizens, the brave Afghans who have stood by us and our Nato partners, and other vulnerable Afghan nationals," the White House said in a brief description of the call.
