The US needs to closely watch China as it might try to take over the Bagram air force base in Afghanistan following the
Taliban's takeover of the war-torn country and use Pakistan to get stronger to go against India, a former senior American diplomat has warned.

(pictured) said President Joe Biden has lost the trust and confidence of American allies after his hasty decision to withdraw troops from Afghanistan. The US needs to make sure that Americans are protected and the country's cybersecurity is strong "because actors like Russia are going to continue to hack us because we show no signs of willingness to fight back, she said. "We need to watch China because I think you are going to see China make a move for Bagram Air Force Base. I think they are also making a move in Afghanistan and trying to use Pakistan to get stronger to go against India. So, we have got a lot of issues," she said.
Haley slammed Biden for his disastrous withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan.
“By the end of that speech that President Biden gave, it was the beginning of the lameduck presidency for Joe Biden,” she said.
