Miami, August 30 (RHC)-- Former U.S. President Donald Trump says the Taliban should return the military equipment it has confiscated from Americans in Afghanistan or pay for it.

The Republican president, whose administration clinched a deal with Taliban last year, has joined the barrage of criticism towards President Joe Biden, who is blamed for the chaotic withdrawal of American forces and takeover of Afghanistan by the group.

"Never in history has a withdrawal from war been handled so badly or incompetently as the Biden Administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan.  In addition to the obvious, ALL EQUIPMENT should be demanded to be immediately returned to the United States, and that includes every penny of the $85 billion dollars in cost," Trump said in a statement.

He further suggested that the U.S. should go to war with Taliban again if they refuse to pay back the military equipment.   "If it is not handed back, we should either go in with unequivocal Military force and get it, or at least bomb the hell out of Afghanistan."
