A US congressional panel has decided to postpone a meeting to consider holding Secretary of State Antony Blinken in contempt over the handling of the US withdrawal from Afghanistan. The House Foreign Affairs Committee had scheduled a meeting to discuss a resolution that would hold Blinken in contempt for failing to comply with a subpoena related to the Afghanistan withdrawal.
The decision to postpone the meeting comes as lawmakers continue to express frustration over the Biden administration's handling of the situation in Afghanistan. The US withdrawal from Afghanistan in August was marked by chaos and confusion, with the Taliban quickly regaining control of the country.
