“Nothing has changed on that timeline,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said at a Thursday evening press conference. She added that U.S. military commanders have advised the president to hold to the deadline.
Psaki said the American flag would be flown at half staff at government buildings and military bases to honor the U.S. service members killed in Afghanistan. “I am certain the president will do everything he can to honor the sacrifice and service” of those who died, Psaki said.
