The withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan is proceeding smoothly, US Department of Defense spokesman John Kirby said on Monday, May 3.

According to him, the "small attacks" that took place over the weekend did not cause much damage to the US military, equipment and bases, writes Reuters.

"We have not yet seen anything that would affect the withdrawal or significantly affect the end of the mission in Afghanistan," Kirby said.

Earlier in the day, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said during a press conference with British Foreign Minister Dominic Raab in London that the United States does not intend to leave Afghanistan, despite the withdrawal of troops from the country. According to him, Washington will continue to promote reconciliation between the authorities of Kabul and the radical movement "Taliban" (banned in Russia).

On April 29, the United States confirmed the beginning of the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan. Moreover, at the first stage of the operation, the American contingent in the country will increase for security purposes. According to the plan, the withdrawal of troops will be completed before September 11.

On April 14, American President Joe Biden announced that the United States will begin withdrawing its troops from Afghanistan from May 1. At the same time, as previously assumed, by this date, the US military in full force will already leave the country.
