"Hanson told Nigel Farage that as a result, the US is now viewed in a different manner worldwide.

“The American people saw it as a disaster. We had just spent $400 million at Bagram with the biggest airbase in Central Asia, which would give us all sorts of options with Iran, China or Russia.
“We could have watched the Taliban and the way they were behaving and we fled in the greatest humiliation since Saigon.
“We left our allies hanging without notice. We left thousands of American contractors, tens of thousands of sympathetic Afghans who were murdered or are sought out.”. . .
