4:02 pm
the taliban form and inclusive government and allow the safe humanitarian passage. i've also asked a 3rd term for it's influencing context to really help all parties of done is to reach an inclusive political agreement that ensures stability and future prosperity of all people. and i've got a son, and of course we've discussed situation of the vulnerable position of religious and ethnic minorities and women and girls. and we would like to contribute to this process. and i've also off his excellency by kindly to, to agree to the relocation of the netherlands embassy from couple to doha. qatar is urging afghanistan's new, laid is to uphold the rights of women and girls. it's calling for african women to play an active role in rebuilding the country, women on an extensive part of the negotiation that took place and daughter between the taliban and other factions,
4:03 pm
was centered on woman and the role and society. we reiterated the woman to play a vital role, and this was emphasized, especially considering the majority of the negotiation team was made up of woman. we also reiterated to the taliban that they should care for the review of their policies and rhetoric and narratives towards women. and they should reconsider and readdress the issues of woman's rights and allow them to take an effective and active role. so they could for the enjoy and exercise the rights and tell a bunch should not back down on what they have promised on the ground, the taliban has taken charge in the middle of an economic crisis. un secretary general antonia good. terence has warned a humanitarian catastrophe. with one in 3 afghans facing hunger in a moment, we will be live in cobble with charles stratford. but 1st keys jamal al shy l, who was at the press conference here in doha and sent us this report. a message that com is that there needs to be engagement with the new orders on the ground in
4:04 pm
afghanistan. that engagement is needed for a multitude of reasons. first and foremost is to ensure that the humanitarian needs of the african people are met. because you need to deal with people on the ground there. so whether that's through getting the airport up and running again, whether it's through signing and g o z to try and help those in need enough kind of done. all of that needs to be done with that engagement. second reason for that obviously is to find political solutions or at least to find some sort of a partner. and i'm going to start will enjoy international legitimacy and recognition. but as each country has been stating that will come across some of the key points there were outlined by the car 34 minutes to shift from the not the amount of money. listen to this somebody that's doing heavy for study. we have heard the taliban to preserve the freedom of movement and provide safe passages to all citizens, including foreign nationals and afghan, holding these us to leave the country. this will be insured till the airport is
4:05 pm
operational and the movement will be normal. this will also apply to foreign visitors who wants to come to their homeland yvonne, these talks are going to continue. these diplomatic discussions are going to continue. what people are waiting to find out to see is how they're going to yield practical results on the ground. first and foremost, were to come up with some sort of a mechanism for the re operation of couple international airport. because if you want to engage with a government lease, if you want to engage with a country movement, you can't do that without having trade, without having missions going down and so forth. so key to that will be a solution to the situation of couple international airport. okay, let's head live to charles stratford in cobble and child. thanks for joining us. the taliban says the government will take shape in the coming days, but how cohesive will it be given the different factions within the group? that's a very good question. we understand that these talks between top 10 of and lead as
4:06 pm
officials are ongoing in kandahar and helman. province, which is the hot land for charlie bond, we understand that it is actually included in those talks, representatives of the various ethnic minority communities. but yeah, there are questions of sickness with respect to various factions. and it's all about the may differ on ideological lines. for example, there are also big challenges with respect to the basic governance. when such an administration, such a government is actually formed. huge questions with respect to money. how is the taliban going to convince the western world international community that each is basically standing by its commitments, the promises that it's made in the last few days or so. the west is saying that he's not going to release that money until it sees proof of those commitments being realized. there are also problems of connected to that money with respect to,
4:07 pm
for example, paying taliban fighters. you speak journalists and they say, well, there are concerns that money isn't seen sooner or later sooner rather than later. then then we're looking at possible questions with respect to maybe even defections, 2 groups. now, that's how a bond has been very false, right? in saying that it will not allow afghan, it's then to be used as a platform for groups to launch attacks. obviously here we're not going to stand but likely abroad as well. so again, that needs to be proof of that coating to the west. there also questions about how it's going to look after and include for the government employees as well, of which there are tens of thousands across the country. in fact, we were at the bank earlier today, and there were literally thousands of people lead queuing up for money. many of them for the government workers trying to withdraw the some of the last government salary. so there are all sorts of questions with respect to k, he sickness,
4:08 pm
as these talks go on in trying to form some sort of administration, that he's not only seen as legitimate here, but vitally if that money is going to be freed, seen as being legitimate by the rest of the world on top of all of those issues won't walking. tell us about the pockets of resistance against the taliban that remain north of the capital. well we know that very cool dementia valley, which is about 100 kilometers north of cobble, a place of historic resistance that was never taken even by the soviets during the eighties and the battle with them was dean. the taliban never took bish area either . is a stone hold for a mainly tragic population? now they have pulled up arms, taken up arms and being led by a man cooled upward masoud. the son of a very famous was a dean fighter who for the soviets, they, according themselves the organization called the national resistance front and foot
4:09 pm
last week or so they've been trained to the taliban the unless you can prove that, we're going to have some sort of major role in these, in this government, they know we are prepared to to potentially fight for it. we know that that happening negotiations ongoing between the n r f and that's all about the warranty . in the last few days, we've seen or heard of reinforcements. taliban fighters going up into that area. we now understand they pretty much sort of surrounded the valley of worryingly last night. there were reports on local media clashes between the n r f and taliban fighters. casualties reported as well among the taliban. we've had no confirmation of that, but certainly an example of something that could become quite explosive in the next few days, unless those negotiations work out both sides have said they don't want to fight. so we know that seemingly all efforts being made, but yeah, a potential flash point that has obviously huge ramifications for the security and stability of the country. okay, keep us updated their child strapped,
4:10 pm
said live for us in campbell, appreciate your time for more. let's for more on katara mediating role. let spring aim al jazeera is senior political analyst, my when sharra, he joins us on skype from paris. let's just see, we've got my, when there. hello there. my one thanks for joining us. told us more broadly about catch has role as the diplomatic bridge in facilitating discussions between the taliban and international community. we'll look certainly it is the western compass choice for the time being. we've seen 2 for ministers and i've heard this coming tuesday and i thought states move it to the my tech mission from around sound to the so in a sense, there is a desire on the part of the east west and the community diplomatic community that is to assign that sort of a role for patrick to be
4:11 pm
a mediator of short with a pilot by now clearly, judging for the past few years, has the experience in do you think negotiations and finally on it has certain credibility and it has the will the means and as a conservative country, it has a certain sense ability to deal with a family by in a way whereby it doesn't sound like it was preaching, but it like it is a partner that is interested in a better future than it's been described as a huge political and ideological to fate for america and its allies. and yet the international community will likely be called upon to help. i've kind of said, how do you see that playing out quite, but i don't actually think there's so much interest by what countries in the
4:12 pm
future can stand and the government funded by me as a funded bond was a partners not an enemy. even though we all know it was a very staunch in the past 20 plus years. and that could be explained by the western nations. and just to close the curtains on the tragedy and assets. and when to see through that stand does not fall into factors of the past, whereby it will host various extreme machine federal organizations in the likes. and it does not create a certain political vacuum that would need to have civil war or, or interventions in the part of some of its neighbors, to the civility. we're going to start moving forward. the bottom parcel of the security policy, as well as it seems of those trust powers that have been involved in
4:13 pm
a while. we appreciate your insights. there al jazeera and senior political analyst and my when shower there, appreciate your time. it's business. as usual on the talk and border crossing, this is a vital cargo and an umbilical cord is applies to the chemist on pakistan's prime minister has already said that a sustained effort is needed to engage with that kind of stuff. and the world needs to engage with the afghan people to restore, pays essential for the revival of economic activity and perhaps open you up with unities for opening trade routes to landlocked afghanistan, the region and beyond. come all honda reports, it's another day of life door come border, the people from of what it's on a crunching into budget on and all the ones who are stranded in august on on now going back across run. it's done that david deed,
4:14 pm
people are now hoping that withdrawal of foreign for today, and dollar bon gaining control over most of the country that they will be the ability and piece of runners on the album dollar bond have already sent a signal to the outside world that day really engage with anyone who wants to talk to them. the bugger, saudi prime minister had also stated that it did essential to have a sustained effort in order to see base return to what it's done. it goes piece and i've run it down. well, all for dividends, for the entire region, and be rid of one is gone. when offered an opportunity for an increase in trade. and all sort advice can make activity in a country that badly needed more people that we have talked to here will tell you that the united states gave a boarded show and registered brand of democracy. something that people say, it's not workable in this region. now the u. s. president has confronted his critics for ending america's longest war and the chaos that followed showed bought
4:15 pm
and held the evacuation operation as an extraordinary success. but 1st, alan fish in washington dc own joe biden speech with signaled a significant shift in america's foreign policy. hello, the ellen, thanks for joining us. mr. bonham was vehemently defensive of the us withdrawal. how is the speech being received? if you're a republican, you thought by and large, it was terrible if you're a democrat, you liked it, i meant to call, he's the leader of the republicans in the senate. he was critical of what joe biden said, but then to be fair, he was also very critical of donald trump's decision to pick up dennis that kevin mccarthy was the leader of the republicans in the house. his view was very much that the united states should have kept back them air base and not just operational, but for a long time beyond the withdrawal. later on, he was priced. well, how are you going to do that?
4:16 pm
and he said, well, i would listen to the military, which is exactly what joe biden did when he decided to close the background because it would take too many people to secure. and also with mean that continued presence in afghanistan, which the united states a degree to end the freedom caucus, which is the far right of the republican party. they are calling for the impeachment of job biking for the way you handled. the evacuation enough dennis stanford common law for not invoking the 25th amendment to remove joe biden and also for nancy pelosi, but they want to make sure that she starts those proceedings for those impeachment proceeding before she the peach. that's not going to happen. the impeachment process simply is going to stop here. surprisingly, ann coulter who is a right wing, common teacher, has been largely a big supporter of donald trump. actually praise what you're biting said and said that he had the courage to do. although she didn't use the word cottage the cottage to do what, joe, what donald trump didn't want to do,
4:17 pm
which was pull the troops out of a forever. busy war, but what you're by no, so it did was say look, we're not done enough gun this time, they will continue this over the horizon view to try stuff out any threat to americans of the american whole month. and of course, just under a week ago, we were talking about suicide bombing cavil airport, which killed 30 marines that didn't go unnoticed by joe biden as well. he warned the ice ok that the war for them isn't over with the departure of the united states into ices k. we are not done with you yet. as commander in chief, i firmly believe the best past, the guard our safety and our security lies the tough, unforgiving, targeted, precise strategy. because after the chair where it is a day, not where it was 2 decades ago. that's what's in our national interest.
4:18 pm
people i've been speaking to over the last day or so as they look, joe biden was always very keen to get american troops out of dennis done. when back obama was talking about putting more troops into, i've got to stand the search in 2007 as a situation room in the white house. when joe biden was vice president, he argued against that, but he was on the losing sight. so he's always been very keen to end the war enough . got to stop and get american troops out. and he made that clear several times. what he said, look, we're not going to commit to another decade of sending americans to fight in afghanistan when the afghan government wouldn't fight for themselves. but here's that, that insight for that job by no means that whatever comes out of afghanistan, whatever consequences the out of the decision to an american presence in afghanistan after 20 years. it doesn't matter whether you're biting blame the afghan government per collapsing quickly. whether he blamed donald trump or coming
4:19 pm
up with this deal that he thought was a bad deal. the fact case president joe biden know owns the withdrawal of american trips from afghanistan and all that will flow from that. allen fisher, thank you for your time. with that updates in washington, they say the u. k. farm is there is also the facing questions from a parliamentary committee. nadine baba joins us live from london. hello there in a day. the foreign secretary has been accused of being missing in action during the ask and the stan withdrawal. what more can you tell us about the pressure he's under? well, it is considerable the quotes that you've just given us, but he was missing an action. that's something that's been leveled against him by the shadow foreign secretary, lisa 90 of the opposition labor party. she wants to ask him, not just about what's happened in the last few weeks, but about the last 18 months she says, but he had time to prepare. and she's compared his performance with other foreign
4:20 pm
ministers around the european continent. but some of the faces questioning has already started here at the foreign affairs committee of parliament from a conservative m p. who chairs that committee tom to get how he himself served with the armed forces in africa. and it's done, he has asked dominic rob, exactly what kind of contact he and his ministry have had wave that colleagues in neighboring countries to i've gotten it done namely pocky stone, tajikistan and whose back histone now britain has in the last few days sent officials to those countries to try to facilitate the evacuation of perhaps thousands of afghans still eligible to come here who are left behind dominant, rob admitted, but he has not been to meet his counterparts in recent months. but he said that judy administered did trouble to pakistan, and he said that this is all perfectly normal. well, tom, to go hot, drew
4:21 pm
a distinction between him and efforts made by the german government to reach out to regional partners and in effectively to get an evacuation plan going before britain did. he's been very critical. we're also expected to have questions about the reports of thousands of emails, but m p, 's and charities here in the u. k. sent to the foreign office in recent weeks with urgent cases needing to be evacuated, but didn't even get looks at now the u. k. stressing it is stepping off its efforts to evacuate the risk of guns right now. well, they saying that if they actually make it to the border, they will be helped to be evacuated. and as a resettlement scheme for the coming years, they're also insisting that everybody who's been flown into the u. k. so far and there are around $10000.00 people in quarantine hotels right now. they will now be given the indefinite right to remain in the u. k. so to work here and to start new
4:22 pm
lives. but as for dominic, rob number 10 has said that the prime minister has full confidence in his foreign secretary. but it really does depend on certain answers. but he'll give as to whether the, the pressure will continue on him because it's not just against his department, but against his personal performance. for example, going on holiday, like boris johnson did the prime minister just before the fall of kabul and refusing to put in a coal to guarantee the safe evacuation of interpreters who worked with british forces. okay, will you let us know how that parliamentary committee goes? nadine baba live for us in london, tara golly, is the author of the 40 war in afghanistan. a chronicle for told he thinks it's time for western palace to learn from their mistakes in afghanistan. i think the 1st thing which has to be said very clearly and bluntly that this has been
4:23 pm
a huge political and ideological defeat for the american empire, for nato and for their lives. and it will bring hope on that level to many others who are still struggling like in palestine and other parts of that. this is possible, this can be done. and that is the principal reason. in my opinion, why there are so many saw faces. because normally when you bring a war to an end, you shouldn't be given some credit for it. and i think biden is absolutely right to have decided to withdraw from, from his, it was a war that was going know where it was a war that it wasted corinthians. it was a war in which the only people who benefit it was the large corporations linked to the military, industrial complex of the united states. and that's where, and it's a war that have to be ended for the sake of the people. there was no other
4:24 pm
alternative mean biden is right. the, the other alternative was to send more troops get down with no guarantee whatsoever that they were going to win the war. so it's a huge to beat politically, an ideologically, and that should not be for about. and the fact that the liberal media in europe and elsewhere is moaning, is because they got it wrong. they told they could win the war, were some of us predicted. this was a war that wouldn't be one, it will never be one interesting thing here is that the united states knew this decade ago. they had the intelligence, who were some cases very clear that we've gone when the wall. so the question that should be asked to buy another american leaders is not why did you pull out that, why you take so long to pull out and do you not realize what a mistake it was going in there in the place?
4:25 pm
these are the question that should be posed that are not being posed by most to be networks like the b, b, c, c. and then there are others actively attacking by them for pulling out without giving any reason or explaining what the alternative was. it's the total collapse of the this thing government which betrayed the illusion of western politicians and their favorites, or media outlets. it's nothing else because they were committed to it. they actually began to believe the untruths that they have been peddling for 20 years. so it's a defeat on many, many levels for the united states and we have to learn the lesson. ok, and a change of pace. it's time for whether he's everton. hello there. the main front continues to bring some very heavy right now says central china into the korean
