of gateway to whoa trade. the us is always of interest to people around the world. people pay attention to work with on here. and it's very good at bringing the news to the world from here. ah. a new ton of bon government about take shape in afghanistan, as carter says, it is working to reopen the boring common claims of bribery and brutality. afghanistan to say they were prevented from leaving, cobbled by special units funded by the u. s. government ah, hasn't taken this is live from also coming up. flash floods from harken, ida kill at least 40 people in the northeast in us. several are trapped in
3:01 am
buildings and cars and the education crisis 11 on the levy schools and parents to fend for themselves. and i just days after the final us troops left afghanistan, the taliban is expected to soon announce. it's formed a new government. it's one that could define the way the country's new rulers engage with the world. and we will cut our foreign minister had been up there, i am on it then he says his government is working with the taliban to get cobbles, airport, back up and running. we are working very hard and also engaging with bought a bond to identify what are the gaps and the risks for having the airport backup running. but we would remain hopeful that we wouldn't be able to operate it as soon as possible of the u. k. government says it has no plans to recognise the
3:02 am
taliban government but is ready to engage directly with the group. britton's foreign secretary dominic rob met his caterine counterpart here in da hodge. a matter shell has more details on the efforts to restart operations. cobble airport, the country from a certain amount of time. he confirmed that a technical team from his country was deployed to of kind of spun off 24 hours ago . they're there to assess how to get that airport up and running. obviously, a lot of it was destroyed either by the huge amount of crowds who descended on it or intentionally by the occupying american forces as they left there. so it does require some sort of reconstruction or rebuilding. but the more important one is who is going to be running? it was going to be money gets into that. the country foreign minister said that his government was in talks with the turks as well as obviously to talk about the new rules on the ground to come up with some sort of
3:03 am
a mechanism. although that deal hadn't yet been finalized. he did indicate or point to the fact that they do expect something to be agreed within the coming days, which was corroborated to us. that's an extent by word we're hearing from sources inside of kind of son who said the taliban are hoping that domestic flights will be resuming in the next few days and possibly international flights within a week or so if you knew or what the resource told me that the initial flight pattern would be helping to operate would be either humanitarian or evacuation ones . that is their main focus for now. not necessarily civilian once. oh, let's speak now to us fun. the mere, he is a senior expert at the united states institute of peace, where he specializes in afghanistan and south asia, joins us via skype now, from redwood city california. thank you for being with us. let me ask you, 1st of all, what do you believe itala bon government is going to look like,
3:04 am
not just in terms of personnel, but broadly speaking, the kind of policies they will pursue and whether they will own or their commitments to, as they say, respect women's rights allow girls to be to, to go to school and so on. now the bun will restore deity stomach emerett, which might tend to will be brocky, similar to the government before the $911.00 attacks before david gene was stopped by the us into southern one. the political loan of the taliban today has many need is from the 900 nineties. so do do that. i think there is abundant, continue to be in howard the one think about the politics, the good values of the group, and very similar. i did extremely committed to emulate this is something that, that the, you know, constantly push back on when the international community dock mentors ask them to reconsider the see their leader as a, as a religious figure, as
3:05 am
a supreme leader and not so much as a political leader only obviously the reject elections in the center, the feelers. lot, he already in the political vision of the country. you know, i'm a key people obvious the i think money hibbitts on that at the head of the movement . he will be the supreme leader off the emory. i will be a prime minister like figure could well be and will a brother was a lead the taliban political office out of the law senior leaders expedited dining lighting b, but also have major rules. and you know, security sector positions might be dominated by senior military commanders from the south of the country like southern abraham. and can you me, when you say, when you say that this taliban government is going to be a lot of similarities with the one the last time around in, in the late 900 ninety's. what exactly does that mean?
3:06 am
because that's hearing that is is going to worry a lot of people because that governments, back in the late 1990 s was seen as one of the most brutal in afghan history. the way treated his people didn't allow girls to go to school at the summary executions and so on is the, is that you, you saying that they are going to return to that? i think they're going to be returning to some of the dead debts. that's my sense. and when it comes to rachel, when the taliban now insist that they have reconsidered some of their views. but when you ask them to unpack, you know, where do they exactly stand they, they don't clarify their position and you know, they tend to be fairly invasive. so that is concerning yet. and that, that suggests that there's something that they have been holding from the international community when it comes to the judicial sector. and again, they're going to be some continuity. i think the ones eugene would be harsh when it
3:07 am
comes to punishing people. i think they do, they're likely to be fairly straight. and i should add that there's been some pushed by the international community to create an inclusive government, which would obviously depart from what we saw in the 1990. and in letter the taliban appear to be. but in spirit, the taliban and the international community really defied on what inclusive actually means. the u. s. government wants to talk about complete space. boyd deform critical rivals, like former president cars, a chief executive of de la de la dollar by do not appear to be open to that there's been some tedious debate in opposition to this idea according to news reports. and my sense is that the vision of inclusion invoice representation often not the dawn and non dollar bond groups, and not so much the inclusion update on a critical driver. so that's another way which i think this upcoming government is going to be similar to what we saw, the $900.00 ninety's could to get your perspective as fun. yeah, near,
