2:00 pm
hi gor, then there are own a dog. how can this be happening? we take on us politics and society, and that's the bottom line. ah . after 20 years of config, the united states is no less stuff going on. i need to say they're ready to work with the world. ah, how am i doing? and this is just the right life and so home also coming up that far as after the last. yes. like because completing it back. you ations and bringing an end to america long before we have exclusive access to capital international airport,
2:01 pm
just about officials prepared to make an operational again. for many afghans who want to leave has been left behind us. security council passes the resolution calling for a safe passage. ah, nearly 20 years since us forces invaded afghanistan to remove the taliban from power. the group is once again fully in charge of the country. the earth has completed its withdrawal. after days of often chaotic evacuation flights of complex ports, taliban says of can astonish, finally, free after 20 years of military occupation. and it insists it wants good relations with washington and the rest of the world. and he's going to tell me, no afghans will surrender to force the way americans left us. going to stop is a good lesson for the future generation. they were damaged financially. it's
2:02 pm
a good lesson for everyone else. it's a historic day with no doubt. it's a free country, it's a sovereign country. america was defeated. they could not achieve their targets through military operations. and on behalf of my nation, we want to have good relations with the rest of the world. well ours, earlier, the last american soldier bought it in the final u. s. flight. out of cargo at 1159 p. m. campbell time military c. 17 to come from the airports. and as they did, the taliban celebrates it's on the grounds. well, the group is now in control of billions of dollars worth of equipment left behind by us forces and from thing to form and inclusive governments and pull to human rights. we've got global reaction from for correspondence for you. this our white house correspondent, kimberly how can i stand by in washington d. c. m. all. hi, there has been reporting on the conflicts and i've got to stand for decades. he joins us on the border with pakistan,
2:03 pm
sent him co fuel louis and his son booth for the government is based sergio refugees 1st though, let's go straight to charlotte palace. she joins as i live from inside. it looks like cobb rural airport. charlotte or what's happening, this are virtual side of the airport right now. we've just had a tour of the airport inside the perimeter with the telephone, with some senior ladies. we were taken over to the military side, which was where the americans departed from last night. and i can tell here, there was a lot of flames. there are a number of helicopters or a number of equipment, but it was all broken. and those images you saw last night of the taliban, joyous celebration, shooting in the air. overjoyed that the americans had left that is not the same and surveyed and what was left behind. i would have been very disappointed. they told me they feel betrayed because they were,
2:04 pm
they told me they were expecting that they would be able to use some of this equipment and that as well as a broken and disabled everything from tires lesson to electronic, pulled out to the glass and the play broke, it makes sense that we should have been able to use the plane so they should have left them functional for us because we're now the government and it would be a national asset. so very disappointed. so there are a number of leaders down here, and actually they tell us that they want to get the commercial side of vehicle functioning. in the coming days. what showing while evacuation has ended on a military front, that doesn't mean that if people have bases and passports that they should be able to fly out of here on commercial flights and the coming days, they do need help with that. and as we've been standing here, the number of cars, hurry, forces and technical personnel, engineers that have a lean thing, some technical expertise to the taliban along with turkish forces to help them get
2:05 pm
the function. and again, because at the moment, a lot of things broken, a lot of things missing that's going to take some time and money to get at least the commercial side operating more. okay, charlotte bell is the live for the airport. charlotte, thank you very much indeed. well, that's the reaction from kabul. let's take united states to the us for our white house correspondent, kimberly hall could join us for washington, d. c. and kimberly, they may come to some cold comfort, said josie, this is in the us to learn that this equipment that has been left behind us is not usable. i mean, i have american reaction thus far to the images that we've seen ice of cobble as the last americans departed. well, it's been a rough week for the us president joe biden, who's also the commander in chief of the u. s. military because well, he is able to say that he kept the campaign promise. he ended the forever war. as
2:06 pm
many americans referred to the conflict in afghanistan. the final stretch of that conflict with marred with the images not only of soldiers, deaths, but also in the final hours. there are the hours after the united states left soldiers parading around in american military uniforms with american weapons. so it's, it's unclear if there will be any consolation to the fact that some of the equipment wasn't working, because certainly there's enough equipment working that it's going to make some americans uncomfortable. it's not just the voting public. it's also members of congress, the president support dwindling among his own democratic party. and his republican critics are irate calling this withdrawal, a national disgrace and a disaster. so it's up to the u. s. president. now to make the case in the coming hours that there were. 2 gains, and there were there achievements in
2:07 pm
a positive outcome from the 20 years that the american taxpayers paid because there is a lot of confusion about what the purpose of this mission actually was. the fact that the united states ended up at the end of the conflict working with the taliban, that the american public had been told that their soldiers were fighting at the beginning of the conflict some 20 years ago. add to that job by the will have some answering to do with regard to his broken promise to the american people in recent weeks that every american that was to leave afghanistan will be able to leave before the true withdraw. that wasn't the case. the white house has admitted there are least 200 maybe 250 people that are now stranded in afghanistan. and while the united states says it will work with the taliban to try it and get those people out . there is a lot of skepticism and distrust of the taliban. add to that the concern about the path for the diplomatic presence that the united states as promising is perplexing
2:08 pm
. it best is yet to be fully informed to the u. s. congress. given the fact that there is no embassy at this point, and right now is operating out of the cutter. so there are a lot of and asked or questions for americans who are, if they didn't know this news as they went to bed last night, their waking up to it here in washington. and that's why this is going to be a challenge for us president joe biden, if he takes to the airwaves in the coming hours, who's going to have to make a convincing case? and one final point that we should add 12. this is that joe biden came into this presidency saying he was different from his predecessor, donald trump, that he was going to work with his allies in order to bring about consensus in every action that would be the foundation of foreign policy. but the afghanistan withdrawal is an example of where he ignored the advice of the g. 7 leaders who asked him to extend this withdraw date instead, being very stubborn and even some may say cold hearted about the sticking to that
2:09 pm
deadline. so it's going to be a challenging week for the president. certainly a challenging speech to convince the american hearts in mind. ok, well we'll keep a close eye on that speech as it comes out. but for now, kimberly hall cut their emotions in dc. thank you. kimberly, let's begin come all hide and he joins us in the talk. i'm crossing in pakistan along the boards with afghanistan and come all these boards. there's these lands borges. now we're going to be increasingly a significant in the days and weeks ahead, given the upheaval at the airport app hello lay. because if you look at the border radio, ron red, 30 minutes dawn are the biggest on gift on the movement over there. not much 3 of those relation countries that are already latin rock dependent on other countries and so on. so the land border crossings between pockets on and one is done will be
2:10 pm
crucial indeed for all don't want to leave off on and get nor take the option of taking a flight out of god, but also important to know or dead for budget on that would be a relief budget on it now or dividing the international community, not to a bar and enough while they're gone to repeat the mistakes of the 1990. the words are also understand that the dollar bond came into power as a reaction to the war large where rick had walk while fighting amongst themselves, rendered russia and redrew in 1989. and the dollar bond came to the support of the people and although they became unpopular and the fact that after the 11th or dag, the international coalition ran into why they've gone by guest of god. now, okay, that, that they should not be a repeat of the 1990 the word in gauge the h are continue to move in an order to mitigate the problem of the paper. supplies
2:11 pm
should go back the bugger studies. i've already said they're bonaire bridged, are allowed to un wide forward programs to be able to take flights in to car of rust on. and so did room for the day. but the culture dropped damage and my dad started up garage advising, even the german foreign minister would rather didn't budget on that, the war need to engage and nor did bond and star. okay, come on. how did that bring us up to date from the telecom border crossing? thank you so much. come all. let's take, you know, to turkey. we can speak with him because he lose you is why for us in a stumble and send him, 1st of all, turkey has a presence enough kind of stuff right now. i don't really, it's just explained since what, what the turkish military are doing there. yes. hello, exactly. as i said, searches, presence still in afghanistan. turkey has been enough down is found under the mayor umbrella for almost 20 years. and currently,
2:12 pm
the turkish embassy is operating inside a military section of the how many cars i international. a ports in carville, and along with the turkish diplomats, there is a small security group that is protecting the embassy. but the turkish troops that have been inside the inside of them have completed their evacuation right ahead of the weekend. as the taliban wanted full withdrawal from the troops as they came to the country in a natal mission. turkish mission was actually an uncle about mission and afghan as some of the other military forces. but the turkish presidents announced last june that turkey is willing to stay and roam the cars. i international a board, but the telephone says we need technical assistance from you. you can run a force, but as the taliban who's going to be forming new governments here,
2:13 pm
we will be providing your security. this is where the logger have starts because the true believe that taliban doesn't have the sufficient security is security talon to provide this a port for now. as paula bar wants to provide outdoor security turkey phase, it should be us who should provide that. but apparently, as the taliban is trying to prove its legitimacy and the country, that's why they're insisting on providing on security. that's why the turkish officials, including the president, the foreign minister, author saying for the last couple of days that this is a delicate issue. yes, they have. they have a demand from tolerable, but they should be evaluated in detail. you're waiting for them to come. and a decision as the turkish president announced last week that the turkish diplomats and the cobble and the taliban officials have been discussing this issue. and shoot
2:14 pm
for a while, and the turkish embassy that has moved to the military section at the couple a port, but ok for the turkey side. there is also an important sake here because i've got to stop in the middle of the turkey countries. and for tricky to extend it influences to turkey countries. this is important for them to stay in afghanistan and run their port. okay, senate we're out of time. unfortunately, we'll have to leave that. but thank you said, because the life form is some bull stay where this is, what's more still to come here on our era. we're going to look at how china is deepening. it's of the taliban and i was belt. i'm rude initiative could bring benefits. ah, it's another beautiful sunny day at 35000 feet. the weather sponsored by cattle airways, boated world's best airline of 2021. hello there, let starting east asian as more wet weather on the way for central parts of china.

2:21 pm
the americans have created this issue to degrade our nation. they want to show a comparison of getting me hanging on to us helicopters, after thursdays attack, there's been a lot of concern about i saw in afghanistan. what is the telephone strategy to counter iso? didn't he has had ample trash last monday we felt the world empty handed and came this far as we can get rid of such a group like we have in the past. this is not something to be stressed about the and yet many a skins are municipal reasons, not just my. i saw that by the telephone. no knowing what to expect from the group . 20 years since it was last in power. charlotte bellis al jazeera campbell 0 has been granted rare access to the city. city of july, 11th said, fell shortly before cobble was captured from i've been job. is there before on life, on the telephone ro we've just entered july about then we've been speaking to
2:22 pm
people on the street. it's catholic as usual. shops are open and people are going about their business on the way to do a lot about the stuff that a couple of places and the spoke to people who came out there was surprised to see if they haven't seen many cameras around in the last few weeks in these areas, and they were telling us that they are actually happy at that. there is no lawlessness. there is no unrest. there are no killings that is happening around you know, all about between a lot about that on a traders were telling us in truck di was that they're happy that they don't have to pay bribes at every check point at every entrance as they go from door all the way to couple on their charging them a flat fee and that is applicable all over the country. we've also been talking to people about their fears under the taliban, and they say because it is still the early days. and we had, if you, with all of the roundness, they were speaking completely freely. but so far,
2:23 pm
the feeling is of relief. that there is no more fighting. and there were a lot of power button fighters who were with us were very happy about the united states. finally pulling out of of gone on demand driving the lead vehicle was telling us that he was kept in belgrade for 9 years. most of that time was spent in solitary confinement, and he wasn't even allowed to see the son. so there is a lot of angst that is those up in the last 20 years. according to all of those people who support the galvan, it is a day of joy, and they have been especially prayers and that they have been going to the mosque and thanking their leaders as well as their elders that they have now given being given this opportunity that they can establish their brand of harry in this country . more one. shara is al jazeera senior political analyst. he says, a canister transition is not likely to be a simple task. when you know, i was listening carefully to our correspondence from various parts of the world,
2:24 pm
sort of a to do force reporting from the various angles. and if i could bring it all into one phrase, i would say that almost every player of significance in this issue was to see the curtains close on the past 20 years. there is a sense that ok, these were terrible tragic years. whatever, including for a gun stand, and as we've heard very well from all i wanted to thank you, sent that. thank you sense for just as much or so for the law. and clearly we have the humiliations, the america. we have most of paced by the british and, and so on, so forth. but even the chinese now wants to see the curtains close they want and you're beginning everyone is talking about that when you're beginning. of course everyone is talking about and you beginning in new different ways. not everyone agrees on what the beginning should be. certainly the chinese are saying this has
2:25 pm
to be unconditional. in generally speaking, no sanctions nor this. and that time to talk to the taliban, talk time to work with a tally, but with the advancement can stand by the course. as we know, the french and the british and americans would like to see more, you know, we'll see the behavior of a pilot bon in order to judge how we move forward in terms of working with it. and the 2nd thing briefly is also i've noticed from, from charlotte and her reporting from the airport and against on is this iraq paradox. right? a sense of over night celebration and anger the following morning when they saw the reality of what the americans left behind. basically destroying their own equipment because this is the challenge for the family right now. they won the war . perhaps the biggest challenge for them as, as counter insurgency would be building a gun stand, governing the gun stand and taking. i've got to stand out of its isolation and that
2:26 pm
is going to be huge chunk un security council has adults at a resolution holdings of the safe passage of people who wants to leave afghanistan . us hope the us hope so that the resolution will protect people's rights to leave afghanistan, no matter. the reason. christian salumi reports not from the united nations. as the u. s. was completing its withdrawal from afghanistan. the security council was voting on a resolution meant as a message for the taliban, that the world is watching. one such commitment which the taliban has made publicly and privately, is that those who wish to leave afghanistan will be able to do so. today's resolution signals just how seriously the security council takes that commitment along with the commitments to allow humanitarian aid to flow and prevent terrorism . russia and china express concerned that afghanistan could again become
2:27 pm
a safe haven for armed groups who could attack other countries. but they abstained from the vote. more with perhaps a fleet had more time. the result of the vote would have been different. at the same time, we can see in this an attempt to shift the blame for the failure to collapse after 20 years of the presence of the united states and their allies in the region onto the taliban. and all the countries in the region that will have to deal with the results of western powers had hoped for unanimous support and even stronger word. but said, further action is possible in the coming weeks, including when the mandate for the un assistance mission in afghanistan comes up for renewal in mid september. today's resolution is an important step towards a unified, international response to the situation in afghanistan. we will continue to build on this to ensure the council holds the taliban accountable on its commitments.
2:28 pm
what leverage does the security council have over the taliban? one possible tool is lifting of sanctions. the taliban wants existing ones removed . council members said they could impose even more if the taliban doesn't follow through. on its promises. kristen salumi al jazeera, the united nations. china has been urging the international community to engage with the taliban and respect, have kind of stun solvency along with russia. it abstained from a un security council vote on monday. katrina, you has this update for baking china. so it had very strong well lecturing sort of woods for the international community, especially for the us. and so that it was against any withholding of funds. international sanctions, anything that would really antagonize the taliban and prevent which one would consider a smooth transition and for the us, well, china, very much pointed fingers and blame the chaotic situation in afghanistan at the
2:29 pm
moment on what it says is hasty withdrawal of us forces it said that this moment in history proved that the u. s. imposing its origin values, democratic values on other countries would be doomed to fail. those were the words from the foreign ministry spokesperson. and he said that this was not time to turn back and just just run away. he said that the u. s. and other countries need to take stock of the situation and correct the mistakes that china's as china sees it . what china would like to see is the u. s. and other countries play an active role in guiding the taliban contributing humanitarian support, economic support. even china, very much has not draw any conclusions yet. it's not recognize the taliban of the official government in the country, but it is very much giving them the benefit of the doubt. i think been beijing's approach right now is to give the taliban space and
2:30 pm
a chance to prove itself going forward. and it's watching very closely as to what it does next. ah, this is al jazeera, these are the headlines. the taliban has taken control of couples, airport r. as after the u. s. completed its withdrawal from afghanistan. the group says it wants to establish good relations with the international community. here it is a historic day. we proud to have reached this day. we congratulate the people, the arabs and all muslims. we are finding, gain, our freedom and independence. the future will be brightened. we will have peace and stability as the government will take shape in the coming few days.
