US House Subpoenas Blinken Over Afghanistan Withdrawal

Secretary of State Antony Blinken is required to testify on September 24 about the 2021 Afghanistan exit.

The U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee has issued a subpoena for Blinken to appear on September 24.
Blinken's testimony is sought to address the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.
If Blinken fails to appear, the committee may recommend holding him in contempt of Congress.
The committee initially requested Blinken's presence on September 19, but he was unavailable.
The State Department has proposed alternative dates for Blinken's testimony.
