this is from us. it's 18 years since. killed nearly 3000 people in the united states. and the country comes to us president donald trump

peace talks about the program. i'm welcome to the program the united states is commemorating the 2001 terror attacks with ceremonies across the country families of victims and survivors were among. the ground 0. to hijacked planes crashed into the twin towers of the world trade center 3000 people were killed in a series of attacks. in washington d.c. welcome 18 years does the united states say yes have closure. phil

would say they don't have closure and we saw that today with the commemorations which have taken place here in washington and open new york of course for many people this still feels very fresh 18 years ago and that may sound like a long time for some before many feels almost like yesterday that it took place and of course the impact that it had on so many people as you mentioned there almost 3000 people died and you know their family and friends still feel you know it's something that they feel needs to be commemorated year after year but the shift is very much focused now on those who have who took place or took part in the aftermath in the cleanup and those who survived will say and you know what what what is the future for them and in fact one of the senators there are elizabeth warren senator who's also in the democratic presidential race said in a tweet that she's thinking about the lives we lost on september 11th and the

courage of the 1st responders the service members and the citizens who risked their lives that day and in the aftermath of that tragedy her tweet was one of many which were very similar and how exactly is the united states looking after those people because there have been so many reports of people becoming ill as a result of the aftermath of the clean up operation which took place and there has been a lot of criticism geared towards how they've been treated. the u.s. responded to be attacks by invading afghanistan which was protecting al qaeda leaders that war is still going on so let's listen to president trump addressing this issue as a memorial ceremony at the pentagon today. we had peace talks scheduled a few days ago i called them off when i learned that they had killed a great american soldier from puerto rico and 11 other innocent people they thought they would use this attack to show strength but actually what they showed is

unrelenting week this the last 4 days we have hit our enemy harder than they have ever been hit before and that will continue as a public phone they have asked in washington what did we learn today that about mr chops a foreign policy in afghanistan. well 1st and foremost phil it appears the president trumps foreign policy is unpredictable and you know these comments have come under fierce criticism that he took away from at the commemorations and focused on his foreign policy in afghanistan now let's not forget that just a few days ago he announced that he was canceling secret talks which were due to take place at camp david and with the taliban it was that diplomatic effort to end the united states in its longest war of course the war in afghanistan and let's not forget as well just yesterday you know john bolton his national security advisor

was fired or he says he resigned and bush you know the shift is focusing now on a diplomatic efforts of this decision and these words today from donald trump have come out in somewhat of a surprise because it was believed there was a different direction being taken by his administration and how to approach foreign policy perhaps a little bit more of a conciliatory tone from president trump so these comments today as i said have been met with criticism and also many people have said it's very unpredictable to figure out exactly what president plans for the united states. how this washington thank you the u.s. envoy spent almost a year ago sitting with the taliban over a possible u.s. troop withdrawal those talks raised hopes afghanistan the peace was coming but now

the peace talks have collapsed afghans fear and the surge in violence. temblor faith the aftermath of a suicide bombing that claimed 12 lives and killed a country's hopes for peace. just days earlier the u.s. is lead envoy was in the afghan capital to finalize a breakthrough agreement with the taliban. but not going to have their needs met months of talks unraveled that day far as i'm concerned that. such a members of the can family were injured in a separate bombing just last week they survived but like many in afghanistan they're mourning the peace deal. one of his soldiers was killed and he stopped the peace process saying he doesn't care about the taliban are in a hopeless piece which doesn't happen now well i think it's what i know is that

victims of the taliban's ruthless bombing campaign lie in the corridors of kabul hospitals these days there have been 2 attacks this month already local politicians say the talks were their best chance of protecting lives. of the majority of the casualties of the civilians without peace i don't think there would be any other way to stop fighting and prevent civilian casualties when you are. working with you know beautiful. wading through what remains of his home zaki can spare his anger not for the taliban but for the u.s. president who holds all the power. of our attacks happening every day with the death of one soldier trump stop the peace talks wasn't he care about the killing of hundreds of civilians here. for those in the firing line of the taliban's 25 year reign of terror thursday's attack may yet be the costliest.
