European allies had hoped Joe Biden’s election to the US presidency would bolster Nato’s relevance after Donald Trump’s acrimonious years. Washington’s messy withdrawal from Afghanistan is prompting a rethink.
After the fall of Kabul, EU defence and security officials have been critical of the US decision to send home its 2,500 troops, saying it has weakened Nato and raised questions about Europe’s security dependence on Washington.
Russia and China are happier than a puppy with two peters.Didn't someone say during the election season Europeans really wanted Biden because Trump was so caustic?

No I don’t really care if they like us or not but I’d really like it if our own leader wasn’t a damn idiot clown and makes us look like clowns too.Oh right, we're back to caring if other countries approve of the US conduct again.

- Biden's aides were 'too afraid' to quiz him over decisions made in run-up to US withdrawal from Afghanistan
- Ex-official claimed the Biden administration functions 'like an autocracy' and stifles internal dissent
The President is accused of insisting on recalling US troops ahead of the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on New York and Washington DC, and allegedly ignored warnings that it would not leave the military enough time to get American nationals and allies out.
The Sunday Telegraph reports that Biden administration officials urged the President - unsuccessfully - to keep open Bagram Air Base, which has more runways than Kabul airport and has been the heart of US operations in Afghanistan during the 20-year intervention.
