12:30 am
topple now the us have announced that they are committing more troops to once and for all secure the airport so that they can keep their evacuation exercise going continuously. in the meantime, of course, compared to the chaos in the airport, a stark contrast. the scenes on the streets of cobble this monday have been relatively calm on the 1st full day of the taliban in control, but it has to be said, it is a com. that is an extremely uneasy one. there are continuing and deep rooted doubts just about a water taliban rule here will look like about the kinds of freedoms, the taliban will allow, rights for women and so on. especially for an older generation of people in cobble who remember some of them with horror about the last time that the taliban was in charge some 2 decades ago. but full all of cobble residents coming out to sea for the 1st time. the taliban at various checkpoints around cobble that has been an
12:31 am
overriding sense of curiosity. in these newcomers. the city of cobble has experience so much up here for decades. and this is another change to get used to. and one that's far from easy to go. most of all of our customers because most of the got the situation for now. no one can say what's happening at all the people are just lost and confused. in the space of one romantic day, life on the streets feels completely different. states is one of the most obvious signs of the transformation that taken place in literally overnight. the whole of the center of cobbled is protected by these 45 checkpoint concrete blocks, various normally gods carrying automatic weapons, and ahmed humvees with heavy machine guns. on this morning. nothing people have been getting used to the novelty of
12:32 am
a new force in charge. the subject of intense curiosity. as taliban take up checkpoint, duties on the roads of a child to know yet i don't know the law or whatever used to fear us. they've now seen them would your ideal and that we are from the soil. i don't want to stand to be destroyed, but there's widespread nervousness about what this view taliban rule will look like . many base decisions shops remain closed that the raw signs of life returning to normal money. if this piece, then everyone will benefit the businesses of the workers. there are deep rooted fears about the erosion of basic rights in particular for women and girls, despite assurances from the taliban and about a return to cruel punishment for certain crimes. but many still remember life under the previous taliban government being at least crime free for the most part. one of the board with the board and everybody will be,
12:33 am
nobody's kid will be kidnapped again for rent. with the, with a sudden collapse of the african government. the people have cobbled new leaders, have been thrown together faster than any had expected. now get together that feeling their way forward into the new reality. now as to the actual handover of power, we simply don't know too much at this stage. we are told that at various ministries, responsibilities are being handed over to representatives of the taliban, the taliban. gradually, we're also seeing other visual changes which are quite noticeable. for example, on the government's television channel, we see now a nightly broadcast and nightly statement by taliban spokes, person sitting in front of a the taliban flag instead of the afghan national flag. but we were expecting this monday for a big news conference. we had been with hinted that with i was going to be a large news conference,
12:34 am
all the major invited both local and international major of which obviously there was a quite a lot here in cobble at the moment where we were expecting to be have outlined may be the way forward how the power was going to be handed over. what the new government here was going to look like at that press conference, never materialized. it does appear as though the taliban themselves to some respect have been taken by surprise by the speed with which they have inherited this country. so the whole hand over it seems is still very much a work in progress. you know, nation. so here's, council is edging an immediate cessation of all hostilities in afghanistan. the statement agreed after an emergency meeting, the council called for the establishment of an inclusive and representative government with meaningful participation by women. diplomatic as a james bay's report from you and headquarters in new york around the security council table. deep concern about the dramatic developments in afghanistan. if
12:35 am
these grave howard, i urge all parties, especially the taliban to exercise utmost restraint to protect lives and to ensure that you met italian needs can be met. the us ambassador, linda thomas greenfield, didn't refer directly to the tense and chaotic situation at cobble airport. but there was a clear warning to the taliban. all afghan nationals and international citizens who wished to depart, must be allowed to do so safely. president biden has made clear that any action that put us personnel or a mission at risk will be met with a swift and strong military response. the united states promises to be generous and re settling afghans in our own country and baset as a weather where the international community now has very little leverage over the taliban. nevertheless, there were clear cause for action. we've all seen the scenes of chaos at the
12:36 am
airport. we cannot say that we were not warned of this possible outcome. now, in the face of an unfolding crisis of tragic proportions, this cancel will have to assume its responsibilities and to act. the meeting was also addressed by the afghan ambassador to the un gulard is ex i, who took up his job less than a month ago, and now finds himself representing a government that no longer exists on. the big question now is whether any security council members will recognize the taliban as the legitimate government. russia and china have hosted high level taliban delegations recently, and both the keeping the embassies in cobble open. the 2 countries though, did join the rest of the security council and issued this statement. it calls for talks leading to united, inclusive, and representative government with full equal meaningful participation of women. james bays al jazeera of the united nations. european leaders have also spoken
12:37 am
actual situation. turner hall has been following events picture. maria will look at france 1st. president micron giving an address in which he warns rather bluntly that islamist terrorists, he said we'll try to take advantage of the deteriorating situation. and i've got to stand, he says the country cannot again be allowed to become a safe haven for terrorists. as it once was, he says that france will work to bring russia into the fold to try and align russia with us at you interests in a common approach, believing there is a common base of interest there. russia, of course, not involved in the nato mission for 20 years. it's gone its own way in the last few days. it's kept its embassy open, its diplomatic presence. it is meeting the taliban on tuesday, so an increasingly important player in what comes next to chancellor merkel. she confined her comments are all the more to a domestic audience seeking to answer questions being asked in germany as they are
12:38 am
being asked in so many other countries involved in afghanistan. what on earth has gone wrong here, and what was it all for? and the chancellor answering those questions in sort of characteristically straightforward fashion, simply saying that it hasn't gone according to plan and it does or rather look as though it was in vain. the repeated government particularly doing everything they can to get their people out doing so in an ever dwindling. so the window of opportunity, they've been told by the us in the last 24 hours or so that they can only be sure of securing the perimeter of the airport for around the next 72 hours. perhaps they'll be updating those plans. but it is, this is a very finite window, and we're not talking about small numbers here. the u. k, saying up to 4000 people, they're hoping to live for nationals and africans. stuff the germans to 10000 people of which 2 and a half 1000 on africans. and on the one hand, you got comments like those made by the spanish foreign minister earlier today, vowing that no one would be left behind on the other hand,
12:39 am
poignantly and heartbreakingly. comments by the u. k. defense minister ben wallace earlier who broke down in tears in an interview, admitting that it was highly likely that some people would be left behind for him speak now to doctor he'd area and he's also, he's the author of in the was and his father and services the currently income to join us by skype, from chester in the u. k. thanks very much indeed for joining us. so your family understand it are, are incapable of you managed to speak to them in the last yes, we haven't. speaking to my family members in kindest on everybody is going to say a shot because this humanitarian design has been unfolding. ready so roughly in front lines. so as a doctor on the humanitarian or somebody who has the conflict, i'd like to highlight the impact of this on human people that already happens with people on death and injured. we keep receiving images throughout our entire you're
12:40 am
trying to just connect all the provinces from the country to my family members and other people sending messages how, where they are, how shocked they are, because they do remember the conflict. the said that was the ninety's, which i was going into in 1983. i spent my child to 16 years that i've been on the day, the rock, the bombs and sell us all my life. and then living in refugee come like millions of other refugees where we have nothing. so a lot of the people are looking into that sort of situation. if the international community totally abandons the country from the humanitarian as one of the piece perspective, that would happen. and that's why people also worried, they're worried about the human rights. they also worried for the fair off their own lives. so we have a role to play as t my parents feed, there are tens of thousands of people have been displaced internally and various punks that i've received. the pictures my thought people are fleeing to pakistan to
12:41 am
iran, to other countries. so we need to start showing compassion to these refugees when they land, and in the neighboring country, as well as in rest of the world, whether it's u. k, at us, or anywhere. because you've got a people hosking for their lives. they need to be given the human rights of safety and need to be shown in the same way as i was from compassion. i was one of the lucky ones. in 1999, i came as a child refugee to the u. k. with nothing, no family support, hardly any education, but i was given a safety compassion in the u. k. which ultima li, enabled me to fulfill my dream of becoming a dr. sonya cambridge and harvard. but there are so many others like me now that that they need that's food. you just on that i'm and you isn't your expectation that then people will continue to leave. or do you think they will wait to find out whether the taliban is different from what it was like in the past? is that, is that the assessment that they're making at the moment? would you think some of the more or just diversion with their feet or ready the
12:42 am
categories of people who work with government with the military. they already failing for their lives as well as many others. they general population the rest of them. they're not their shots and they are suffering from the mentally as well that most people are traumatized already from the decades of conflict that i personally brought in p t. s the with me and i've been suffering those symptoms here in the u . k. you can imagine what people are suffering mentally on the grounds over that. so in a way they absolutely have provisions for the right reasons. and they don't know what to make of it. and hopefully, hopefully the situation would unfold in a way that at least the civilians their lives are not at risk. they're allowed to fulfill their dreams. go to having occasion go to hospitals and do their jobs. what you make of present biden's her address this evening when he was predefined to saying that there wasn't any point staying any longer. but in a way that went on to say, will continue to push for regional diplomacy. speak up the basic right to the
12:43 am
african people. what did you make of it? ultimately, it's up to the guns to make a bill come up with their own solution. but it was 2 decades ago when the west design is going to spawn. so they happened part of this company for the last 2 decades. people are angry because they have so abruptly removed themselves and they are abandoning us kind of stuff. so people refer to the cycle that's happened again and again in the past when i've kind of thought has been ruby 92, i remember exactly when the president and the government was toppled in cobble when the majority came and we start playing with nothing children, us we were stepping with dead bodies and that was our lives hiding and spell it for the next many, many years. people are there, but the manner that happens, that's what people are very angry about. and in the short term what your expectation is to services. i mean, not all the taliban equipped to be in charge and government and to run things like the hospitals and so on. i've asked
12:44 am
a question for my family members. i bosses my medical colleagues to which cherokee is connected. they all want to see how it unfolds. it's only been 2 days since they've been in cobble, but what actually needs to happen on the ground is a new monitor and a needs to go to these people. there are tens of thousands of people displays the need to show the need and then it's the refugee flux and neighboring countries and the rest of the world and the u. k. the government needs to change the policy. they bought a national people needs to be scrapped head and we need to show compassion to refugees . dr. he'd our n. thank you very much indeed, hurting that 100 taurus around here. thank you. thank you very much. bye. a tropical storm is heading for haiti as the search for earthquake survivors continues more than 1400 people and now known to have died in disaster. a number
