BRUSSELS, 14 April, 2021 (TON): On Wednesday, the U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken asserted that this was time for NATO allies to withdraw from Afghanistan.

According to him, the alliance would work on an adaptation phase after Washington announced plans to end America’s longest war after two decades.

Blinken remarked at the NATO headquarters, “I am here to work closely with our allies, with the (NATO) secretary-general, on the principle that we have established from the start: In together, adapt together and out together.”

 However, according to the sources, during a video conference the NATO foreign and defense ministers will discuss their plans later on Wednesday.
