Biden attended a virtual G7 summit over Afghanistan earlier in the day, which "he confirmed we are currently on pace to finish by Aug 31," White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said in a statement. "He also made clear that with each day of operations on the ground, we have added risk to our troops with increasing threats from ISIS-K," she said, referring to the local affiliate of the Islamic State. "And that completion of the mission by Aug 31 depends on continued coordination with the Taliban, including continued access for evacuees to the airport."
