There’s no deadline for getting out the Americans who are still in Afghanistan after U.S. troops withdrew from the country, President Joe Biden said Tuesday.

Biden, speaking publicly for the first time since the withdrawal, called the evacuation mission “an extraordinary success” as he pointed to the thousands of Americans and tens of thousands of Afghans who were flown from Kabul on U.S. military or U.S.-facilitated flights.
