It is noted that the high-ranking American officials involved in this process plan to create a commission for a detailed investigation, which aims to find out who exactly participated in the decision-making regarding the withdrawal of troops and how it was implemented. This initiative also involves consideration of possible charges such as treason.

“They take this very seriously,” the interlocutor of the publication emphasized.

The publication noted that the investigation involves former high-ranking officials, including Matt Flynn, who previously held a key position in the US Defense Ministry. However, his lawyer, Mark S. Zaid, denies any involvement of Flynn in this initiative.

Matt Flynn has nothing to do with Trump’s transition team, let alone lead any military justice review.”

Sources in the Biden administration say they are skeptical of allegations of treason, noting that the military was carrying out the president’s orders. A 2022 independent review by the special inspector general for Afghanistan reconstruction pointed to mistakes by both the Trump and Biden administrations that led to the chaotic withdrawal.

According to US officials, Trump’s transition team is considering recalling some commanders for further judicial review.
