camp is like nothing you've ever need access to health care, it's something we want to know. how does these things affect people? we revisit places day, even when there are no international headline houses, there are really invest in that. and that's a privilege. as a journalist, i this is al jazeera ah hello, i'm samuel dan. this is the news i live from doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes, pushes diplomacy to bring stability to. i've got to stand on the olive on the rule as pressure grows for an inclusive new government. facing a financial squeeze, the increasing desperation of afghans at

of people out of the chemist on. i've also asked a 3rd to employ. it's influencing context to really help all parties of his time to reach an inclusive political agreement that ensures stability and future prosperity of all people. and i've gone on, 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. carter is urging afghanistan's new leaders to uphold the rights of women and girls. is calling for afghan women to play an active role in rebuilding the country woman. she was an extensive part of the negotiation that took place and daughter between the taliban and other factions, 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 taught a bond is taken charge in the middle of an economic crisis. the un secretary general antonia good, tell us his warning of a humanitarian catastrophe. with about a 3rd of afghans facing a hunger crisis, jamal to show you alice, in doha, says western governments realize the need for some level of discussion with autonomy. bon, a message that's come is that there needs to be engagement with the new world. ours, on the ground in afghanistan, that engagement is needed for a multitude of reasons. first and foremost is to ensure that

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 son or 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've got to stand that 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 pottery foreign minister from the not the amount nathaniel efficient to this somebody that doing heavy for study. we have urged 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 operational and the movement will be normal. this will also apply to foreign

visitors who wants to come to their homeland body on 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 are movements, 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 child stratford in cobbled brings it's up to date now with internal tony bon negotiations on forming that new government. these talks between talk taliban leaders. 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, they're all questions of us with respect to various factions in the toilet. bomb the may differ on ideological lines. for example, there are also big challenges with respect to the basic governance when such and destruction and such 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 it'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, for example, paying taliban fighters. you speak journalists and they say, well there are concerns that if 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. do armed groups as these talks go on, trying to form some sort of administration that is 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. technicians from carter, i've been arriving in afghanistan. they're expected to help bring cobb lab pulled back online after it was damaged. during the recent evacuations, the airports, runways still operational, but the terminal and traffic control talent need repairs. western powers are pushing for the airport to be opperation to allow people to leave, to help maintain a deliveries. and the need for aid is readily apparent on the streets as i can scramble to get the basics. many as rob mcbride explains, can even access the bank accounts the trying to get a grip on an economy that is faltering, get best outside one of cobbles,

main banks, the taliban allowing just 10 customers at a time as hundreds more weight that turn not very patiently but if the commander abraham probably didn't expect to be controlling frustrated crowds when the taliban stores to victory will be a home. yes, of course we understand the problems and that's why we've brought these much idea of how many customers are government employees who say they hadn't been paid for months and caught by the speed of the former governments collapse. everyone is running out of cash. but like men will not because men should have 100 over everything in good order. instead of running away like a did, i have money in a bank like $4.00 or $4000.00. but, but i can't cash my money from buying people's access to the bank since it cashed

remains. the real problem, the banks have largely remain closed when they are open. there are strict limits on how much you can withdraw. it all pointed to a much bigger fiscal problem of how f kind is done is going to pay its way taliban government. the country central bank reserves have frozen by the us while world bank and diana funding has stopped. just surviving is the immediate concern for many businesses. it takes like 6 months, the husein family completed the expensive opening of a 2nd coffee shop branch 2 weeks before the taliban takeover. i very contact with the people who are have restaurant who have from individual businesses. so they're all down. further down the street, taylor made raheem. he doesn't know when things will improve. my name is also a phone call, but a model because the bang fact lost in people's mind is stuck in the banks. there is

no business. the banks are open, the people come own his rac hanging, increasing number of uncollected jackets and suits they were ordered before the taliban victory by people who no longer have the cash to pay for them. fabric for all who've left the clothes and that country behind in search of something better. robert bride al jazeera couple the war now the scanner stan was expensive. president joe biden says it cost and estimated $300000000.00 a day. the u. s. spent more than 2 trillion dollars and it's 20 years. they're more than 800000000000, was used to cover operational costs like weapons tanks, aircraft carriers and ass strikes, minute free training for afghans. i did. up to about $85000000000.00 a campaign to deter afghans from selling heroine and opium cost over $9000000000.00 . a further 4000000000 went to humanitarian aid. on joining us now is solomon

ben shaw. he served as afghanistan, the deputy minister of industrial commerce before cobble fowl. he joins us now live from the afghan capital. so does the inability of afghans at this point to get cash, whether it's from salaries or wherever does that mean people are going to start going hungry pretty soon. so now i'm to, you send me into everyone listening and watching us. yeah. are the concerns are quite high, you know, i mean, everybody is on the street, the trader, the economist, student teacher, your name, and everybody is what he did the economic situation for the most part of it. because except for the airport dress part of the city and the problem have really seen a car and table few day have ever non and it's not there and there is no commercial diploma can happen. it

is getting worse and worse, people are expected to take out just a few 100 dollars, 200 dollars a week or $220000.00 apps from the bank on a weekly basis. and this is that the central bank has no cash. the banks are ready to locked into the organ and start delivering their services. and the all concerns regarding activity in the near future is growing among the private. let me jump in here. i mean, there's a lot of focus on the banks and the cues outside of the banks, but how many afghans do the majority of our guns keep their money in bank accounts, given the majority of people in the regional day wages online the dora so it's not only how many people are maintaining bank accounts and not running it. the number is quite low, to be honest with you and there. but the whole concern that you know, even be, have all

a system where people use local services to transfer money within the country or having the, or either gas or low wages that are finding on the basis. they know all in some point required services either either they're working for somebody to tell you, you know, the higher group in the, in the, let's say, the middleman, the private sector and people who are doing some economic committee or been unable to pay the lady. so she process everybody's effect, everyone's getting impacted with us. now cutting off the flow of dollars, will we see the value of the local currency, the afghan start to fall pretty soon. and is that in turn, go into prompt inflation.

right now prices are growing, just like the report said, it is stock for it is more one more month. the bigger problem there is that pressures cannot cons for money to dear partners outside the country for votes or on the tv and import. they want to bring to have on is done in this. in retrospect, create a huge problem. it both medium and long term, creating more challenges on food security and access to data commodity on i guess what you could call maybe the plus side has the rise of the tiny bond meant a reduction in the, the levels of fees and bribes. that one had to pay the various factions before that's very true. that's really true. we have taken several measures for the last few days at the customs and other places. and people are reporting to me and talking to me and informing me how the problem has now been resolved that were

pending for months because of corruption issues or other critic processes that were there. but, but this would, this can not be in answer forever. i mean, for now, you know, making certain decisions or measures would temporarily help people. but in the long run there is a need for macro economic policy overview for, for certain actions, or as got to like, the after on worst economic got. because it's not only about micro economic use in the country, but a lot of other macroeconomic functions are needed to make sure that it gets back on track and starts moving to or if there is just in stability in the country. and that's going to need a lot of good international cooperation between i've kinda sounds, new, rulers and powers. what about the apple in talking a lot about the apple for obvious reasons. does the current level of operations at

afghanistan, airports, in general? what does it mean? full industries effect is reliant on exports and in pools. what we call the airport has a very significant value compared to any other airport in a year. we're experts also going through several items that were important through the airport. and in that respect, yes, the, the, the call from the private sector in basically every group of the society and even international, the 80 to the airport is when it's possible. we have to wait and watch how soon this is happening. but at the same time, because of the disturbance and the economy for the day carbon fall, we have seen multiple reports of exports being stop at the pricing points as well on the line, a couldn't crossing points that we have with,

with our neighbors and the export distance to other countries, so it's not only just because the airport is not functional, a lot of majority of or important exports. and then it has also be in effect that we see that it leads 15 to 20 percent of the economy portrayed to be on the board has decreased and lowered. but the high concern is i was speaking to officers from the minister from the chamber of commerce and industry. told me that a growing concern among private sector is the financial services in banking services rather than the regular business artic normally do in stock. because right now we're able to transfer money outside of one is to either get material for their factories or purchase a stock of good they are trying to get this done in the next few weeks or months. all right, thank you very much man. been, shall there thank the,

at times chaotic end to the us led war in afghanistan has re ignited conversations among european leaders about becoming less reliance on america. and it's military meeting to discuss the crisis they've discussed. and e, you rapid reaction force. we do not know the such joke, political event to dress that you must twice for great decision making your turn to me. it's great to get back to for action. do you agree in union city? is this to protect interest, to defend in the values. and there was based on tradition of order to promote. and of course, we cannot each know to i teach development in the world. we do not meet more strategically to know me. because we want to be stronger and more influential because we want to have greater impact. and because we want to strengthen alliances,

let's take you to paris now for european reaction, more european reaction, saying that we got joining us. natasha butler. natasha. what else is shells? michel been saying, well, the shell michelle ahead of the european union council was talking at a conference in slovenia when he made those comments. and basically, what he has been say is that you must learn lessons from the afghanistan crisis, namely that they can no longer necessarily rely on the united states. now you heard that show, michelle saying that the you must become more. we'll talk more independence when it comes to defense when it comes to security. and his comments basically echoes those that we've heard from the foreign policy chief use burrell can recently say that it

is clear to those in the european union that the u. s. is disengaging with the international see more and more, and that is why many in the you and now calling for the european union to become a lot more independent as a state in terms of defense and security, which is due to address m p. 's, members of the european parliament shortly, and he is expected, of course to talk about. i've got them. alright, thanks so much. we'll leave it then. natasha butler from paris moran. shara is out here as senior political analyst. he joins us by skype from paris to so model one, i guess, the discussions going on in slovenia right now. demonstrate that, that concern that we saw that you repeat the concern we saw flare up during the, the donald trump era, about america's reliability. that hasn't gone away on the by no, it has not. and clearly they are opinions and they are opinion in particular have

been quite good at exploiting crises of various kinds in order to sort of consolidate their european union. having said that, i have been associated with the european thing, thanks for a good quarter of a century. now, if we're, every time i heard something about common defense and military deployment of sort, i would have been a millionaire by now. there's been talk about such a joint military operations and a neuro corps and so on, so forth. same submitted on an court got together and the 1980s through sheer rock and shoulder onto shoulder and cozy up to today with micro and merkle. he's always been french. german attempts at uniting europeans under some sort of military structures or some sort in order to create some kind of

a rapid diploma force. they created something called you a corpse at one point, the 1500 soldiers. it's deployed once, i think in africa and malley particular but the idea that europe that speaks so many languages that have so many parliaments, with so many processes within their countries on the when and how to deploy forces . and what does pilot and play a role in the executive when you deploy force? my sense is there's a lot of talk and there's probably a lot of goodwill. but they, your opinion is so frustrating. it's processes that i don't think something i'll be huge, will come out of it. okay. even if nothing huge comes out of this model on, is that the very least this increasing worry or sentiment in europe is it weakening the us european alliance? it's not so much weakening it,

but it's certainly creating the urgency for europe to act more autonomy mostly within the nato alliance, acting more autonomous be in relationship with the united states. because the right in the united states has proven once and again, not to be dependent. but again, so we've seen that after the, the balkan wars in the ninety's. we've seen it after the civil wars. you've seen it after 911. we've seen it after the big rupture between the germans and the french and the one hand and the bush administration after or during the 2003 attempt at going invading and occupying iraq again. and again, we've seen that happen that we've seen that kind of rupture, and we've seen they are trying to get their act together and they have in so many ways, it's just what it comes to, you know, i think the military structures talking about the united army or, or headquarters or military headquarters of sort. this has been frustrated once and again, but certainly there is a real intentions on the likes of macaroni medical and others. and we've seen that

today from the dutch french summit, that there is a european desire to break away slowly, but surely from dependency on the united states. something that is not so unwelcome to washington by the way, i mean, the americans have spoken once again, including from obama onward, that they would like to see europe and scary more of the burdens and spend more on defense and so on, so forth. so i think you will see more about kind of a board side of the atlantic speaking more favorably, 40 or appear to carry more of the burden to unite around some kind of united i would say, you know, security defense that goes beyond the theory and into practice. all right, thanks so much more one shot or the case. foreign secretary is being grilled by a parliamentary committee over the countries withdraw from afghanistan. these

defended britons operation at the airport, claiming all intelligence expected cobble to hold out for longer. likely slightly. the central proposition was given the troop withdrawal by the end of august you would see a steady deterioration from that point and that it was unlike eco, would fall. this year i thought was the central assessment and of course we will, the usual cabinet that you will be familiar with. that doesn't mean we didn't do contingency planning a game out to test the other propositions. and just to be clear that something that was widely share about view amongst nato allies. and for more on the view from the u. k. now nadine bob joins us from london. so he's getting a grilling in palm on. how exposed dizzy was. i mean, it wasn't easy going the session of the foreign affairs committee here in

parliament and exceptional one because parliaments in recess ended around half an hour ago. so around an hour and a half of questions to the foreign secretary and the committee was chaired by a conservative m p. tom to get hat, who actually served the forces in afghanistan. he's being one of the 1st is critics of dominic ra peach. previously spoken favorably about germany's foreign minister high, tomas and his contacts are the counterparts in the region before the couple take over by the tyler bond. well, in the last few hours tom to get hot actually repeated his assessment. this was the biggest foreign policy disaster since the soon as crisis in the 1950s for britain, specifically on the intelligence dominant. rob you heard saying that the prediction was that there would be a slow deterioration. his stress that there was contingency planning for a rapid escalation. he put it before april of this year. he insisted that there was

contact with counterparts in the region right up to mid august. he admitted that he couldn't put a figure on the number of people left behind eligible to come to the u. k. u, he put the number of, of u. k. nationals in afghanistan still in the hundreds, but some here estimate that the total figure of those at risk as well as those on the u. k. don't lists for relocation could go into the thousands dominant. rob refused to enter to go into details about his own actions on the weekend when the telephone actually took car bull. he and prime minister for bars johnson what both on holiday at the time. he has criticized the focus on that previously as a back biting bugs his colleagues. he also refused to go into details of

allegations the thousands of emails outlining urgent cases, meeting evacuation, going to the foreign office, went on read an on on search. his basic message was the u. k is continuing to try to evacuate. people from afghanistan, officials are already in a neighboring countries. park is done, is back on subjects done dominant rob himself is heading to the region on wednesday . it's expected he'll visit pockets on as well. as cutoff where you k officials already holding talks with the officials to try to guarantee safe passage for people who have the right to come to the u. k. to do so in the weeks and months ahead, dominant rob is on the pressure, but i don't think his position is going to change right now. number 10 has said bars, johnson has full confidence in him. and even some members of the opposition labor party have said it's not necessarily that he needs to step down. but the need to account for all of the 4 of his actions in the last few weeks and months. all right,

thanks so much. and dean barbara set a head on al jazeera. why health care workers in the philippines are protesting against their treatment during koby 19 and tennis? well, number one novak yoke of which avoids an upset of the hands of a danish teenagers. he begins to use the historic calendar grand slam. ah hell i once again more sunshine across the middle east as per usual, but a little lower the way of cloud and some rain across the northern parts of the region. so we'll see some wet weather. they're just coming into the northern parts of turkey, just around the black sea, the caspian sea, around the corner. it could see some flash flooding into a ga, maybe it's armenia and as a by john, as we go on through the next day or so, skid,
