3:05 am
to work. we asked women to stay home and their salaries will be resuming and come back to work when we have a system in place. with no extension of the august the 31st deadline, there are mounting concerns for tens of thousands of afghans that want to leave this country. that's all about says they have nothing to fear and that there will be no reprisals against people who have worked with nato foreign organizations or the media in the past. the trusting the taliban on the basis of their words alone is something that many afghans and the international community find it very difficult to do. child stratford, al jazeera cobble from all with the lightest from washington d. c. l. m. fisher joins us live now. hello there, allen, so we any clear as to what exactly is going to happen after over study one? well, when joe biden spoke, he was really sending a message to the taliban as well as to the american people to the american people.
3:06 am
we've got this, we can get this done by august 31st to the taliban. we've got this. we can get this done by august the 31st. as long as you don't gum us up and get in the way that they're taking off the flight to taking off every 45 minutes or so. they've already evacuated 70000 people since august, the 14th. he thinks that they're on schedule to make this by august the 31st, but he's making it very clear. get no, we cause problems. stop people getting to the airport. and then there is a difficulty both i had from jen sack today saying look, we want to get the americans are allies, an american, the african allies that helped us during the war. but we can get everyone to know that there are thousands of people who've no connection to the american forces going to the airport as well, the priority americans, african allies, a need to allies, and they think they can get this done by august. the 31st one fly in the ointment, there was a security briefing on capitol hill in the last few hours. it was confidential,
3:07 am
but many of the people who were in that meeting walked saying they don't think that the bite administration is going to hit the deadline. not looking promising a job on and also i spoke of this threat from isis k. who are they and what a washington concerns. it's an offshoot of, i still remember the i still kind of are up to after american troops with through of iraq during the time that brack obama was president, and the vice president was joe biden. they're aware that this is a threat. but again, joe biden, speaking to the taliban, not in direct way, but just making it clear, look, you don't like these guys either. and there's no intentions between iso and the taliban. so you think you don't like them either? make sure they don't get in the way of this. we don't want that to be a problem. essentially, he's saying to the taliban, if everything goes smoothly, you want all american troops off. get this done by august the 31st. guess what?
3:08 am
so do we and we can make this work just don't do anything or allow anyone to gum this up and we will make that deadline. thank you for the update. alan fisher joining us live in from washington. they say the world bank, meanwhile, has suspended a to get his gun fighting deep concerns about the situation. name is provided $5300000000.00 to the countries in 2002 and has $27.00 ongoing projects them last week. the i m f also blocked the delivery of payments. and since the taliban takeover, the u. s. is frozen, not in half a $1000000000.00 worth of african government reserves in american banks. for more on this, let's bring in the alexander and he's the founder of capital peak strategies and served as the us treasury department financial, a tashay in kabul. thank you for joining us, alex. what's your reaction to the world bank? freezing? i money to afghanistan. thank you. emily,
3:09 am
i commend the world bank on this decision. i think it was absolutely the right decision in following the, the work of the i m f and the us treasury, department and other partners to deny the tall bond access to revenue. we're likely to see the likes of china or russia stepping to replace some of those last funding . i don't think so not on the same scale, international assistance to the afghan government. the previous afghan government was about 50 percent of a civilian budget and almost 100 percent of the security budgets that totaled at least about 40 percent of overall gdp for the country. this is a huge amount of money. and so, while it remains to be seen what the actions will be taken by china by russia, this, this part of this current position by the world bank, by the mass, by the u. s. and international partners is a major blow to taller bond revenue. they were great as an insurgency, they could raise money through the drug trade. they can get engage in other forms
3:10 am
of taxation, smuggling, and, and other ways in foreign donations. but now they own the afghan government, and they need to provide social services and provide all the other parts the normal government would provide. and so that, that isn't the same revenue they had as an insurgency. so while we're talking about the world bank and i m f and afghan government reserves and all, you know, all of these particular bodies. i mean, let's talk about civilians who rely on this money. what's going to happen to them now that they have been frozen? so from the u. s. perspective, the u. s. and able to provide humanitarian assistance around the world. the people of certain countries including afghanistan, while denying those governments like the taller bond access to funds. and this happens in places all around the world. and so i know that the u. s. i would imagine the u. s. government is, is contemplating its position moving forward on how to support the afghan people.
3:11 am
but this was a deliberate decision by the taliban to resort to violence, to take over the government, to go away from a peace process that was negotiated with the united states and the afghan government and the afghan people. and commit violence and commit atrocities as are being reported in your previous reporting. and so for that, i really do have great concerns about how the tall bond chooses to govern. and that the choices that they made they knew were going to have consequences. they've been creating international legitimacy in the agreement with the united states in 2020, with the trop ministration. they allocated 2 paragraphs for sanctions removal request. that's a lot of political energy for something that they, that they really did care about. and so it remains to be seen how the tall about acts and then how the international community should respond to those acts. but the tell about needs to have like a responsible government, protect the rights of women, protect the rights of minorities, protect prima press and other, other norms. and then from there,
3:12 am
the international community can determine whether or not it deserves international system that is walked away from. well, we appreciate your insides there. alex said in the founder of capital peak strategies appreciate your time and inside thank still ahead on al jazeera, chad's jail, the form of president to say, how has died. we look back at his time in power and indigenous people. camp outside brazil supreme court aid of a crucial ruling on the protection of their land. ah, ah, it's time for the journey to winter sponsored by kettle airways. hello. thank you for tuning in our summer rains across india. we're getting a bit of a breather. in particular toward the northwest, so that includes new delhi $37.00 degrees. but i want to take you where all the
