Haley specifically pointed to the attack on the Kabul airport in August 2021, which resulted in the deaths of 13 American service members, as evidence of the botched withdrawal.
She argued that Biden should be held personally accountable for the withdrawal and the subsequent consequences.
In a statement from her presidential campaign, Haley said, "Two years after the fall of Kabul and Joe Biden’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, the world is less safe, our enemies are emboldened, and our allies are questioning America’s commitments."
