Question
From the options given below, choose the option that
gives the correct combination of incorrect sentences. I. By declaring that all U.S. troops would be withdrawn from Afghanistan, President Joe Biden has essentially upheld the spirit of the Trump-Taliban deal, rather than endorsing it. II. Under the agreement signed between the Trump administration and the insurgents in February 2020, U.S. troops were scheduled to pull back by May 1, in return for the Taliban’s assurance that they would not allow terrorist groups such as al-Qaeda and the Islamic State operate on Afghan soil. III. Apart from the U.S. troops, the thousands of coalition troops under the NATO’s command are also expected to withdraw along with the Americans.Solution
Sentence II: Incorrect
The error is in: “such as al-Qaeda and the Islamic State operate” After allow , the correct structure is: allow + object + to + verb So, it should be: ...would not allow terrorist groups such as al-Qaeda and the Islamic State to operate on Afghan soil. Sentence III: Incorrect
The error is in: “under the NATO’s command” We do not use the before NATO when it is used as a proper noun/adjective here. Correct usage: under NATO’s command
