Joe Biden slammed for failing to hold press conference amid Afghanistan crisis

US President Joe Biden is facing calls from across the political spectrum to hold an immediate press conference to explain the catastrophe unfolding in Afghanistan.

The calls come as Afghanistan teeters on the brink of total collapse, with the Taliban on the cusp of taking control of the country.

Taliban fighters have reached the capital Kabul - with leaders declaring victory over the Afghan government.

The shockingly fast collapse of the Afghan army has caused thousands to flee the country, fearing retribution from the Taliban.

While this crisis unfolds in front of the world, President Biden has not held a press conference to explain the unfolding humanitarian catastrophe.
