mexico's bloody drug. watch the people around you, mr. governor, you've got people who are with narco, through the eyes of the journalists, determined to report the truth. your government is full of narcan. she said, that's how the article should start 60 years own we revisit the report is still risking their lives being another outbreak. violence of more versus rewind, the deadly beat on out there. a lot in america is a region of wonder, a joy tragedy. and yes, of violet, but it doesn't matter where you are. you'll have to be able to relate to the human condition away. i've been covering all of latin america for most of my career, but no country is alike. and it's my job to shed light on how and why me ah,

the ah. the news, i mean, the whole run the reminder. one of our top story that's got his phone trying to free the country, facing several obstacles, including taliban road blocks and problems with paperwork. the chaos of cobbler port has continued on friday to find us and native pledges to accelerate the evacuations. well, nato has been holding an emergency meeting on the crisis and glistening. joining me now is the secretary general again stolt and i, mrs. sultan. but thanks very much for joining us here on al jazeera. let's just cut to the chase and talk about those people that are trying to flee the country. you're giving certainly support and guarantees. you'll do everything you can to

help them get out of god. his thought is that enough we have been able to evacuate the thousands of people over the last days and the situation at the airport is so much better now. and i, and also on the, in the beginning of the week about, we really recognize that the huge, tall sca that remains to be done. and that was the main issue discussed at the meeting today. the reality is i've actually, we are many allies were offered to host to receive afghans. people coming out from going on. we have many planes enough calling this on the cobbler airport or in the region. the main challenge was to get people to the airport on into the airport and that was raised on this coast at the meeting today. of course that challenge obviously, is about security and access to the airport. the americans obviously have control of the board. but you know, the taliban are in charge all the access routes to it. so i put it to you. are you

speaking to you about to call or are you in any way trying to communicate with the taliban? about what you would like to see in terms of african civilians heading towards the airport with the appropriate paperwork. are you talking to the taliban? so we have communicated clearly to all of us that they should provides a safe passage for everyone who wants to leave the country. and especially when enable them to go to the airport. so many dollars and especially in the states they have had what will called abrasion all tactical compacts with, with all the bonds to make sure that that happens. we have seen some progress, but still it is a very difficult situation outside of the airport. it's very unpredictable. it's not actually one of the reasons it was important to have the meeting today to address these together as 30 allies and also listen to do not did states on all the

laws who are on the ground, the cobble airport. okay, so moving on, so it is in a statement that you may just a short while ago. you talked about the fact that you were going to perhaps have an inquiry as to the root causes of natives involvement in afghanistan. what were, what would the success is? what were the major failures? and many would say that this is one of the major failures that we've seen in the past few days. but be some pictures of taliban operatives in various parts of the country and in the capital showing off their military gains, include us weaponry, things, and full carbines and 16 rifles. even the reported potential of having black hawk helicopters and an $829.00 super to cano attack aircraft. are you concerned about the mounds of weaponry that was left behind by the african forces and that is now in the hands of the taliban. i'm concerned about

the i've seen the last weeks including the very rapid collapse of the african security forces on the political leadership when we made a decision to and then they threw us us and they took precedence in august on we were where are the risks of all the bomb, the returning back to the very rapid, the false collapse over all of the political leadership. and this a good divorce is that was not anticipated. and that of course has created some additional problems. so the problem is we are faced with today. then i think it's extremely important to remember that the reason why we went into afghanistan was to prevent of calling the stone from being a safe haven for national terraced after the tides attacks organized from calling on against not the states and 91120014 trinity, ezra prevented any attacks on the need to other countries organize from of gone on

. and now it is simple to do it that we can to preserve those gains if the gains are to be preserved and precedent by note, he said what less than 24 hours ago. that if they couldn't get people out of the country, they needed to try and sort this out. troops would be left in the country beyond the 31st of august. as a, as an he's an 8th model of the u. s. as a nato member will, will you will, nato. will you advise your members to stay beyond the 31st of august? at the meeting today, many allies express the need to extend the deadline to the timeline beyond the 20 and 31st of august. and that's because they see that with the current pace, we will not able to get all the people who want to get out by the end of that timeline. at the same time, it is an extremely unpredictable and difficult situation around the cobble airport . but i think it was in self important allies were able to sit together and discuss

these issues. also, we do not to stay through now are in charge of the airport in the in couple of course. what are your hopes now in terms of being able to get as many people out of cobble is, is it's doable before the 31st. how many do you expect to get out of the country? it's doable to get many more out of the over cobble of the airport and, and in the meeting today. many allies make sure that they're ready to host off gowns are there to have a temporary staging areas to, to, to, to process onto and, but also many hours also express the willing to read. several afghans who are worked for us africans at risk on the more permanent basis. and we have an older plane scenario which can help people out. the challenge is to get them to the airport and that also that goes to the other meeting. so that's the case,

missy and celtic, i know that your time is short, so we really appreciate you. joining us here on al jazeera thanks very much for joining us from brussels. kind of the march the people living around one of west africa as key eco tourism fight say that they're fighting for survival. black johnson beaches just outside syrians, capital free town on his famed marine life and surrounding rain forest and want life. now the government wants to build an industrial harbor and plan a critics of branded catastrophic as m intervals. the days catch begins to arrive in our bay and marine protected area of frito fish traders and by as eagerly await from barracuda as sting rage to crustaceans, much of 70 and fish is consumed looking. but the bulk of the catches hold by $40.00 off the coast,

fishermen widicker all my says the new project will change that. the several will add a value to our fish, our pursuit for the can you call to you for the past? yes, the i've been there about a year from now i can be market mix up abuse every blessed because i have an access to the market. this is where the government wants to cite behalf of an area with white sand beaches and pristine forest. well, it's all, almost been it and told me bunder was property, sit on 3 acres, a piece of real estate, he vows to keep his pipe, government pressure get so it describes the plan to take over the property as a desperate land grab about his name. i don't think they want to do. yeah, they want to do different things. that's why they want 250 cars. because if they want to do about boys not to, i'm going to suddenly insufficient. marine resources has an estimated value of

$400000000.00 a year, but the country lex, the capacity to extract the maximum you can make benefit from it. the government says the project will allow setting your account with your resources to process and package it, rather than send it to neighboring countries. and i guess this will create jobs and more revenues. but could you say the location is wrong? they want that if the project goes ahead, it could lead 20. can you come on human disaster? despite the warning, the government says its mind is made up. no, i'm going to change on my we are just going to do the tin that is good for this country. that is correct for this country. that future generations. we see, oh this people did this thing for us. they can on the benefits of the proposed project was never in doubt for both its proponents and appointment. but activists blamed the government for much of the confusion surrounding it. because our civil

society, we are more concerned about the environmental impact of the project. first of all, when you had about the time, it didn't come from any official source because government was kind of more comfortable to open up discussion. to bring interesting discussion around the table, we've got to the investments we know why no chinese work on the block, just be the $55000000.00 project will be executed with a grant from china. the government of standard yard and fisherman insist the benefits far outweigh the risk, and abandoning it is out of the question with landowners threatening international legal action against their own government. this could be a long grown out battle between the 2 sites. got up some of the reason you see that, like johnson, the black market demand for an exotic fish funding, mexico's goals of california is endangering around purpose. fishermen blame the

crisis on the government's mismanagement of environmental policies as mental repair report fishing his hard business in sun phillipe it aside from the punishing heat, tougher fishing restrictions have force many here to tighten their belts. load in. so garcia, the local fisheries association says fishermen are being collectively punished for criminal activity in the protected waters of the upper gulf of california. exam was good to fill up with killer. we know there is illegal fishing, but we've been fighting for 30 years to keep our fishing permits and maintain our cooperative. it isn't fair that we're being lumped in with those who do not respect the 0 tolerance policy. the no fishing boundaries along with a ban on gil nets were put in place to protect a rare porpoise that lives only in these waters. it's known in mexico as the vector . but many believe the laws aimed at protecting lucky does have failed to stop illegal fishing. spurred by a high demand for another rare species. do other boys of fish that has us

gallbladder, which is like balloon that allows the fish to move up and down in water that has a very high value in china to illegal trafficking. so people are fishing for by using governance, killing, but he does 2 traffic to extract the bladder and try to get to china. really night, states to, to other gallbladder had become so sought after even drug cartels are said to be in on the action. these specimens are quite small, but we're told that a single full grown to do of a swim bladder can be worth more than a kilo of cocaine. in an effort to disrupt the to swab a black market, trade conservation is or bedding onto to ob, farming the well intentioned, some worry these efforts may not be enough to save the endangered buck heater and its local fishermen who seem to be paying the price. it's important to recognize

that that legal fishing is important for many communities and mexico and the upper golf form. yes. that there are alternatives for legal fishing that we need to support local legal fishermen in the area and an economy called tentative for them . and i would express our concern because of law decrease in budgets, the from the federal government for environmental institutions and mexico that we've been seeing since 6 or 7 years back. experts agree. the problem requires action by the governments of mexico, the u. s. and china to crack down on the trafficking of endangered species in the upper gulf of california. many hope whatever the solution may be. it will strike a balance between conservation and the livelihoods of fishing communities. manuel rap, hello al jazeera,
