not excited getting bounced or not. you are. cheering at the event honoring the victims of the $911.00 attacks u.s. pressed and donald trump a wednesday threaten the taliban with even more military action am claim the quote for the sudden end to peace talks between the u.s. government and afghan taliban leaders. we had peace talks scheduled a few days ago i called them off when i learned that they had killed a great american soldier from puerto rico and 11 other innocent people they thought they would use this attack to show strength but actually what they showed is unrelenting week. the last 4 days we have hit our enemy harder than they have ever been hit before and that will continue. trauma called
1:23 pm
off peace talks in a series of tweets on saturday he's tweets also revealed at cancel secret meeting with taliban leaders that was to be held at the presidential compound in cape david maryland just days before the 911 anniversary a taliban spokesman criticised the us president for calling off the dialogue and said the move would result in even more casualties and what has become the longest for an american history so today we'll look at how the shift in diplomacy could impact security for the afghan people and joining us to talk about this in kabul also the spokesperson for the president of afghanistan and london hotel she's the executive director of the conflict and malice this network and a human rights campaigner with the afghan group time for real peace and in doha al jazeera correspondent charlotte ballasts welcome everyone to this story and want to start online where there are so much conversation over the past few days about
1:24 pm
these peace talks of what's much for secretive and about the calling off of them so start here with danny is an afghan journalist who writes unexpectedly calling off the peace talks with the taliban which were in its final stages president trump raises doubts about his determination to responsibly in the war of the u.s. in afghanistan so the i'll give this one to you because after 18 years of war is this how the government of afghanistan views it as well. 1st of all let me say hi to you and your colleagues and war and no i think we should put the blame on the taliban because. imagine the united states opened up. a new of negotiation with what a group which is a minority it's a small group to work the afghan government. to our allies are so they never committed themselves to
1:25 pm
a peace in which all personally u.s. and western allies we wanted to. point to marry or a political settlement in which we can end this war but it's very sad after 10 minutes or one year of negotiation with the united states. and then surprised. then the produce the level of violence so at the end we can only blame them because there is we did not see any sign of commitment or peace we made it to peace the u.s. is committed to peace but it's not committed to peace so it's sad that we have to really corner of this and look into other opportunities in which we can. end this war so you've been covering these peace talks for some time now i'm just looking here on my laptop the u.s. special representative zalmay causing that he said on august 31st we are at this
1:26 pm
threshold of an agreement that we justify that's open the door for afghans to sit together to negotiate an honorable sustainable peace and a unified suffer an afghanistan that does not fight in the united states its allies or any other country now all during this time of course there has been violence with the taliban they have been attacked they haven't stopped attacking but still escuela an optimism coming off from the u.s. special representative so what happened. so there was an optimism from both sides the entire time no matter what was going on behind closed doors and i mean cus they were happening in cus i would go down to the diplomatic club and we'd sit in this cafeteria and watch both sides and you could tell the body language was tense but the end of the day that always put out a tweet saying you know positive steps excellent steps to go to a joke where the americans and the taliban were looking up at the saurus as to say
1:27 pm
like what kind of positive would come today to convince everybody that things things are moving in the right direction so when that we're not from him. they were right on the cost they seem to deal in principle the taliban told me this week that they had actually an issue a deal and given a deal to the qatari negotiators and the americans to take food they thought that it was you know sign it into live it and that have a signing ceremony with in the wake and they were very surprised when the when the tweets went up. i'm just wondering because the deacon is saying that the taliban blew it. but you're saying that things were continuing. is it possible that the idea of the strategy to keep fighting in afghanistan by the taliban did did they stop the peace talks all could it i could i think all
1:28 pm
22 are seen as a tweets by somebody who is very well known for being quite mischievous on twitter could that be rail thing entire process. well yes is the short i think that essentially the taliban and that was what i got from i was in the talks on tuesday when wheels that in general miller snuck out of kabul 2 days before this was all called off they showed up at the diplomatic club things were very tense because the taliban the kind of the game if you will in the battlefield last week why nobody knows i mean they had to deal right and essentially that was a play they hand looking for more leverage they launched attacks in provincial capitals they did too big a texan who they killed an american soldier i mean how can you go forward as an american and trump with those kind of optics and say ok finally signed the deal in just get about what happened in the last week it doesn't show that the taliban were negotiating in the right spirit of the agreement and your take is interesting
1:29 pm
they're especially given some of the skepticism to people online who you're saying that the taliban overplayed their hand and i think many people would agree with you but i want to hear this from a non you tube who says the taliban was and is ready to negotiate they have only one demand leave afghanistan it's their country they are the majority they will govern themselves and someone else wrote back to snow wales who says this is something that we wish to do speaking as an american trust me a lot of americans oppose staying in afghanistan but leaving now would be a risk to our national security again speaking about the united states who what has this meant for the afghan people and people in afghanistan. well. he she will say the piece. is a marriage to the. day it's opened quite a lot. because honestly for the company that's going to force the kids
1:30 pm
of war with their witness so many cities human rights violations this look alike like opportunity but unfortunately you want to see does all parties to the conflict including you is ringback the part of the toddler was using civilian life. as a 12 feet for getting move leverage sucks that's a little bit easier than that is for the whole issue. of the same time i do believe does you know the piece off the wheel is thought sometimes again but one has really because. many of the one we tried to see hope for the best at the same time but i mean i know what is ringback why all this stuff happening in
1:31 pm
secrecy why do some of us kids we. we are the ones who have suffered in the last pink heart the war that stuff has a subject we'll see years ago and this is going on since it is the right of people to know what is on the table unless a lot of being traded off for peace but unfortunately you is full of this one of the. details and this is the moon. i would say for reasons that's come from any gun that if this piece is about why it happened behind the closed why it happened in greece i think it's a question to him go ahead. yes. so 1st the point when we look at to call them and you need to realize what kind of the color of our we should not forget what are their agents why they continue to kill.
1:32 pm
in a very vicious way in a very violently and what is the end game so the end game is to conclude that we're a jug or 3 which is the one they don't care about people. it's very obvious because they have continued killing people for for all time now so they want this geography to turn this into a safe haven to many other radical groups in the region so there was a friend who said you know the u.s. should go and let the taleban come because their majority are gone they are a minority group and too late it's strongly with many of the terrorist groups not only in the region but also internationally you know the number 2 kind of whining is that they can use getting that mentions and that is if i may because we are also very direct questions she wanted to know why are the people in afghanistan not
1:33 pm
being told how the peace talks are going at she would agree to anything because you don't want to talk to the taliban you don't want to deal with em. no she was right because we were also lived in the dark as a government so so most of the details of that long process were not shared with the afghan government so we were not included in that. league oshea should that was happening so i would say the same thing as mrs will say that's why we then raised our concern about that probable peace peace deal that was about to come out so we mainly listen to the concerns we had an understanding of the deep and and its consequences so that's why we openly and publicly came out and actually showed that over a position to this. deal that was about to come. to the agreements
1:34 pm
between the taliban and. so and i have to jump into the process yes. hi sorry mr sake it's a challenge here i know you say you know and the dark you are the spokesman for the president why it's your country your your the legitimate posse that controls it why not say to the americans when they come to you with the peace deal i'm sorry it's our country and wait aren't accept it or we do accept it or we want these changes made i mean i really think that sometimes they don't and that scene sort of mission there. so we say that just basically saying that you know the way things are now moving in the bus with many women. that's not going to bring a sustainable peace. to the peace process or any peace peace process from one of the might be led by the arab government must be owned by the afghan people so the
1:35 pm
loya jirga or the consensus of this peace comes so that got there in the cult may see 1000 of them from across the country. for peace to the president the president so we asked. many occasions. and that's why he said. keep this conflict going to be to the afghan people would be to the afghan government any legitimate government that was coming in a couple of weeks so i want this to be over but this to me should not be. the issue with qatada slogan or somewhere else so then they should not change that we have. never been a. nation which is what know what to do and the nation wants to lead its way i'm comically. concerned even the president.
1:36 pm
on many occasions talked with criticize the way he was doing and the outcome that we were predicting was not something that could lead to sustainable peace so i think you mentioned your political destiny and afghanistan's political destiny need to be decided in afghanistan i want to go to kabul i want to bring in the voice of ali let t.v. journalist a former al jazeera journalist as well hears all these take on that. so i know for a fact that the cancellation of the peace talks will change anything on the ground in afghanistan because the fact is that the average person never on sunday know what was being discussed and also because the taleban in the us who are the main parties to this agreement or the suppose it agreement never stop their attacks but the more dangerous thing is that no one not the president and his team not the presidential candidates not the united states seem to have any kind of
1:37 pm
a real plan of how they hope to reach a negotiated settlement because the fact is that you know these military ways aren't succeeding in afghanistan so far but i wonder if you can speak to that especially given the fact that you were reporting in afghanistan during the length of these talks and so you got to witness firsthand the aftermath of what people are going through the attacks that are not committed just by the taliban but also by isola and other armed groups what were people telling you about what their lives are like and whether or not they recognize the importance or significance of these talks. why i think people were just dealing with the aftermath of essentially both sides looking for leverage i mean the taliban up their attacks the u.s. may have fought off the gas over the last year and they were kind of record numbers of civilian casualties this year so so they were feeling it a lot i'm a city can sure can attest to that as well and i think with these peace talks
1:38 pm
falling over. it's only going to mean more really because you know people will just look for more leverage try to get the other sides back to the table however long it takes guess i'm just going to show this guy jump in here yes he said. yes 1st of all the security forces. with the support of the us forces were trying to. deny any. advantage to the taliban that was more defensive operations because the taliban were launching attacks so we could not do anything to leverage any position of the taliban who were doing this at some point given. the level of violence spiked but we were given that actually by the taliban we were almost in defensive and we pushed back on that
1:39 pm
time but that was the pushback was not for the negotiation because the negotiation was taking place with the taliban and the us but the taliban and the dup is that the taliban you know look at the level of violence that went up so what else can the taliban today you know are worried about the consequences of this. right now and we are concerned of the future violence to what extent they can go their way would be gone soon to the highest level of violence so they could have done anything that they were to do so if i might can we will be better to the status quo is there let me just. this is that is who is there. my limbs or increase in violence or your contacts and the understanding of the taliban. is absolutely wrong as it is not good let me just emphasize that with a statement from a taliban spokesman we're just going to freud up on the screen so audience can also
1:40 pm
read it at the same time. so that gives you an idea of what the issue is that so if we push forward. and we're looking at you know what is possible this war has not been an inclusive peace process does this opportunity of the talks. being on pause right now does that leave an opportunity for it to be more inclusive can you reset. well i think the other is of the opportunity. the speech stops more inclusive because you know. part of 40 years in the country. you know. from the right. also to. see how has been
1:41 pm
used by guess how they go i'm almost the same biomedical. allies which unfortunately a lot of. people this is what needs to be. really really that peace could be unsuspended in a country like a. house to be inclusive it has to come from within society and we have to deal. with dealing with. dealing with. perpetrators were. not but if you want the people ringback of any peace deal can i give you stuff happens back in my. family i guess because it also makes the show how do you do that because you haven't had access to these talks so far today talking about how the actual country that is being talked about that is out war is being pushed out of the peacemaking process so how do you get
1:42 pm
a seat at the table it is your country. i was fortunately in the whole peace process. that we have more of peace peace making these as point of peace exclude the voices from the peace why don't. they use it but you know how you use counting the can reach to peace without including god. and on this is a very basic question 2nd if you use laws to predict how they will why do you want all the truth in 1st place in 2000 lux why because so much more. so much more comforting to do so this is why i think keep calling on a little true dissident campaign to diffidence platforms both at the national and international level calling for inclusion of the peace.
1:43 pm
for. peace talks because they had sure these 3 has shown that you know back in 90 in 9090 when if you had any and you talk which will talk which was between the government it doesn't begin to be of peace but. also is a little. over somebody's displacement and many other human rights violations that count so it's a bleak picture you're painting there but i think that our community would agree i want to play a video comment from romania and his assistant professor at red brown university on what this means going forward published on. if the talks between the us administration and the taliban are indeed off and we can be actually certain that your 2 potentials not the most likely want to start the us and destruction warming tain forces in afghanistan and then the century business as usual probably with higher levels of violence both in terms of counterterrorist operations and civilian
1:44 pm
casualties and in terms of terrorist attacks yeah there's an oil is the us dollars withdrawing forces relievedly quickly between now and the us presidential election of november 2020 if that's the case then we can expect a very harsh taliban regime combined with a return to full blown civil war including the taliban of course and former entitlement factions but also actors such as these are big state and that would be catastrophic for afghanistan so just as bleak as that of a picture that he's painting as well charlotte do you think there's any way to restart these peace talks i think they're still talking behind closed doors and trying to see if they can find some common ground again but i think that it probably comes down to trumpet the end that day and who knows what he will do or what he will tweet. can i just jump in on the what he mentioned about the a because that is one thing that has really kind of scimitar under the talks this entire year
1:45 pm
that it's gone on because the americans are really concerned that they've got currently about 2 and a half to 4000 isis fighters in afghanistan they're really concerned that the hard line taliban if they don't want pace may jump across to isis and it gets a real problem because if the americans leaving and then the ones currently keeping a lid on isis then if they leave and the taliban fracture and the hard liners go to isis you've got a mess of problem of counter-terrorism there. i'll end with the job it on twitter who says advice i would give to u.s. officials working on peace negotiations include the afghan government in the process as they represent afghans meet concrete evenly spaced out deadlines to be met by the taliban and do not rush a deal that lacks substance. or think it would be a word so yeah ok we do we're literally out running also right korea thank you so
1:46 pm
much what is your work today yeah right now there won't be any common ground for this peace process to restore this election coming out you have to find a way a little chilly today if you will there was a minus for us thank you for watching your fight as always on take care. i cannot mark my phone with my face you can access your bank account with your voice unique algorithmic measurements of us that are revolutionizing the process of identification the plyometrics are far from perfect they convenience and seeming infallibility comes at a cop's most crucially our privacy and the 4th of a 5 part series addresses the appropriation of obama's personal characteristics all 3 of the algorithms on the jersey.

1:56 pm
parliament had been unlawful and motivated by a desire to muzzle parliament did you lie to the queen when you advised her to provoke to suspend parliament absolutely not. and indeed as i say that the high court in england plainly agrees with us but the supreme court will have to decide opposition m.p.'s meanwhile a clamoring to return to work after succeeding in forcing the government to release its internal operation yellow hammer report it contains worst case scenario predictions for a no deal breaks it clogged up ports fresh food and medicine shortages price rises and civil unrest but of course no house of commons to scrutinise its findings that's why you know that's why i was so angry. because i should be. with the ability to interrogate the prime minister and ministers. now approach we can do that and the prime minister again this is
