and the responsibility of afghan people alone to decide their future and how they want to run their country. the us military moving out in a hurry, afghan, astounds already facing new challenges. afghans have been selling, plundered us goods after looters ransacked. what was america's main military base in background? us troops out of the field in the dead of night, without even notifying the local forces us the claim coming from afghan officials. the pentagon denies that saying that the african military was well informed of their withdraw. nevertheless, locals living and working yet i are worried about what lies ahead. i'll call them they got everyone who's worried about how long the uncertainty will continue. no one is doing business, the markets, and the people that work there have been badly affected. businesses collapsed because there is no stability before when the u. s. didn't plans withdraw, things were stable, but the instability increased since they left me. i'm very clear the yes had
7:03 am
contracts with market owners here and we used to purchase from them the withdraw will affect our business. we can buy any goods because there are transportation problems or funding questions from the mainly the president rejected comparisons with the 973 us pull out from south 5th. now, when the government fell 2 years later, biden playing those little chance for the taliban to take control of ghana stem. but his remarks come, that the group is already making sweeping territorial against the latest estimate is that the taliban now controls more than half of all districts. well, this is the scene. it's one of a number of front lines between taliban fighters and afghan forces. the army has been forced onto the back foot with more than a 1000 soldiers recently fleeing across the border to fully nice
7:04 am
nations weapons inspector scott ritter told us that the us mission in the country was far from a success. if, if all our all we want to do is kill been lot, and in the and i laid out, we could have done all of that much sooner without undertaking that, which we did undertake. why didn't can say otherwise. but the reality is we were involved in nation building, we did build a nation in afghanistan, a failed nation. and now we're abandoning it. you know, i will be the last person to argue in favor of a continued american military presence. but we need to be honest with the people, with their neighbors, the regional neighbors and the world. what we did for the last 20 years was bail we last. and now we should be looking to the international community, especially afghanistan's regional neighbors offer assistance in helping come up with a solution by pretending that we're a mission accomplished. that we,
7:05 am
we did what we wanted to do, and now it's on the ask and people to, to fix this mess. that's just disingenuous. delegation from the town is in moscow for negotiations. we'll have a rundown of what has happened so far from our correspondence covering the talks later. now in less than a week's time, the us military operation comes to an end in afghanistan, whichever way the future plays out. it will affect lives both inside and outside the country. according to recent estimates, the exodus of african refugees is on the rise, considerably the numbers closing and on 3000000. putting an incredible strain on countries forced to cope with the newcomers, germany, france, and remaining the list of the countries taking in the most africa migrants in austria, a 5th of all refugees, and now from afghanistan. and the last numbers are also bringing with them a host of problems. some gruesome as leap trendkite exploits. imagine you're in
7:06 am
charge of a country shocked by a creepy rave skin. the victim who died had just become a teenager. the suspected rapists are young and again refugees, you've got no choice but to take action. if you don't, the public won't get it. and that's if you're lucky. if you get too tough on those who escape misery and war back home in their home countries, political opponents will give you a p r b t plus that will raise some liberal u eyebrows. let's hear from the man who's lately been facing this precise challenge . sebastian kurtz, the chancellor of austria of bit often i find it intolerable for people to come here. thing da, seeking protection, and then commit cruel and barbaric crimes in austria. politically, this means for me that we will stick to a line with me there will definitely never be a whole to deportations off. can he's done or a watering down of asylum laws for asylum seekers who permits crime just?
7:07 am
what exactly did he mean by barbaric ah? and austria, more than 4 percent of all rapes, an 8 and a half percent of all murders are committed by afghans. of course, not all refugees are thugs, but e statistics in 2020 show that afghanistan citizens have the highest number of asylum applications in austria and for 3 years in a row. they also are the 2nd largest group of asylum seekers arriving in europe as a whole, right after serious. some are worried that higher numbers of refugees could mean more potential trouble. i want to be clear, u. s. military mission can stand,
7:08 am
continues to the end of august, where the future of of dennis day and looking murky beyond the withdrawal of us troops and the taliban making large territorial gains. it's only natural that a new wave of refugees from there is expected in europe. it's obvious that austria can close its borders. it has already regularly tightened its asylum policies. recently, the justice minister from the green party says more such steps wouldn't be right for the country. the asylum law has already been tightened in recent years. i will lose often enough options, but we just have to apply them in a consistent manner. moreover, in 2019 the european court of justice ruled that you members have no right to the port a refugee even for committing a serious crime. if he or she prove that live back home would be in danger. all of this does seem to tie the hands of cancel or curts, who like you've heard, is in favor of different patients for criminals. the minister of interior from mr.
7:09 am
his party has locked horns with the greens justice minister saying he will push for more rigid migration and repack ration rules at the level. the asylum system is not working, migrants who committed criminal offenses have to be reported immediately. while the advocates of the harsh approach towards refugees in the austrian government are teaming up with colleagues from hungary and the czech republic, the iraq received doesn't exactly paid the way for quick changes in a solemn rules. certainly, they won't be as quick as job biden's, keen of gannett, stand, pull up number the austrian federal council from the freedom party. dr. hannah's who now says it's astonishing that austria hasn't yet sent back a single ask and migrant asylum system as we have it in europe is just a way to turn illegal immigration into legal immigration when the illegal
7:10 am
immigrant arrives in any country. europe. ready and he, he says asylum, asylum immediately becomes illegal immigrant in the european asylum procedure, which usually takes place is a general problem which you cancelled was one or 2 measures at least the mini stick minister of interior mist. anyhow, my has now admitted that the asylum system of europe in union is a disaster, austria and the government has done nothing to change that or to avoid it. because austria, through the dreams of the european union, has collaborated in creating the system. we didn't send 11 single africans. i've gone home for years in austria, not one, and hundreds we street, for example, have a quote of about 50 percent, the austrian citizen in the long run. this is a huge problem because it tracks and facts migrants from all the 3rd world.
7:11 am
meanwhile, austin, feminists have been having that issue. they've accused local media of racist reporting. they say vilified. my group to group more besides website r t dot com in fun video story and a whole lot more besides website r t dot com. now trouble is blowing in the front says plans to build off shore wind farms turbines as high as 80 story. skyscrapers belgium is lowe's, legal action against the move of to locals outlined their objections. paris, nevertheless, has the wind did it? said the president of the commission for energy regulation, even suggested opponents suit of the energy cut off. or the shallow davis ski travel to the area to discover more. it may look column, but a storm is brewing. and it's a huge one front plans to build an offshore wind farm just off the coast here. the
7:12 am
turbines would be as high as the eiffel tower, around 300 meters tool. so they'd be pretty imposing. the idea has caused a fury in neighboring belgium so much so that the q e u countries, a set to go head to head in court as belgium threatens to sue a complaint will be launched with european commission because our country has not been consulted about the location of the area, while european directives require it independently owned the french belgium border, that anger is palpable since it is very close to the boarders. about 10 kilometers, it will be very visible from our beaches, this landscape and the feeling we have of liberty and seeing the seeing the horizon is actually our main products. that is why people come to our shores. that is why
7:13 am
people buy property with an ocean view is because as he does horizon, they don't come to the planet to see windmills for francis, a very important project, i understand that. but that doesn't mean that you have to put all the burdens with the neighbors and take all the advantages as a nation. so as you've heard that there is really strong opposition to this wind farms from the belgian side, but say you're not alone in this. we're about to cross the french border, where there are protesting groups who have been opposing this windfall ever since. it was suggested that if you do a little bit of research, you will find that this project, this planned in the heart of meaning that this project also does not respect history from, says president storage site of operation dynamo. meaning that this project also does not respect history. francis president not call and has set himself up, is this defender of the environment. now he won't strong to have 40 percent of its
7:14 am
energy to come from renewable sources. so wind farms that by 2030. now, those wind farms are crucial, kogan not idea, and the pressure is also mounting off. the high council for climate in france says that the country is going to miss its greenhouse gas emission targets that failure would be embarrassing, but we didn't foam like the one that's planned for here are not popular with everyone. looks like we launched a petition, and despite that, when the minister came to don cack and we tried to meet her, she refused to talk to us. and then she came to tell us the details of a press conference. she told us that this project will be carried out no matter the opinion of the locals. if this has any impact on the territory. why is it not the inhabitants to the side? why is someone in paris making the decision?
7:15 am
locals here have even demanded a referendum over the project, but that has been completely dismissed by the state france. he's also ignoring the, please from its fellow e. u. member. the government is determined to conduct offshore wind. foreign projects will of course continue the dialogue with our belgium and france to take into account the concerns. but the fact is that the dunkirk park is strategic for the implementation of our energy program, and that we must not waste any more time. however, that could be scuppered, not only has the french military now decided on new restrictions and constraints as to where wind farms can be built. but the senate in france has also just adopted a measure that could allow local meds to veto such plans. meaning that france's idea to be greener than green could soon have the wind knocked out of
7:16 am
them. charlotte diva ski for all see on the french belgian border. former police officer could become new york next man, after winning the democratic nomination. he was picked despite a year black lives matter protests which included the funding. the police is one of the state to dames in the city. crime is soaring though with new york state govern under coma declaring a gun violence disaster emergency. well, the new mayoral candidate is eric adams. he served in the police for 22 years and is currently the brooklyn burr of precedence for front of his platform commitments to combating gun crime supports police reform, but is against the funding the false. if black lives is really matter, it can only be against police abuse and has to be against the violence that's sitting apart our communities. people want to feel safe. right now. they don't feel safe. crime is happening all around them. shootings are up. robberies are up,
7:17 am
homelessness is up. they see in the subway. they don't feel safe in some ways. they see it out in the streets, in their homes, in the neighborhoods, and they want to feel safe. so this gentleman ran on a platform of public safety and making people feel safe in their resume with them. and that's it. you know, the, to find the police movement has been a large failure. demonizing and attacking cops has been a failure and people are ready for change and hopefully this is the catalyst of some sort of change. and it's not just new york polling shows concerns about violent crime or at a 4 year high nationwide with homicide rates climbing across the u. s. chicago's mass us, the president, held them to the city. witnesses bloodiest weekends on july, 4th with more than a 100 people shot policeman, z cock him again says to the public demanding action that he's unsure that lead as a listening to violence is right in people's faces. you can put all the crime
7:18 am
statistics out there, say your crime is going down. you can have all the feel good moments, but people know what they see. they know be here. and you can't deny that. so people definitely want to change. they want some sort of action to be taken. they want to feel safe. that's what's all about public safety. well, you're not going to convince someone that just finished watching someone get robbed or know about shooting is going on in the neighborhood that they're safe. they want something done literally we spoke to the owner of a food truck in portland to just become the victim of st. louis. thing. he said that he and many others feel helpless. i was arranging to instruct for different places in down in downtown on. so someone broke into my food truck, i just called the police guy, and i asked them if they can, they could do seeing upping. but they said no chunk of code, but i was like,
7:19 am
you like so i will now my customer food like, you know, i shouldn't move to the face down so it's not a, you know, isn't staying down the line doing it's okay. i don't ready to night. i don't know. you think staying without international can take a very short break. more news coming up in a moment. the ah, with me
7:20 am
ah ah, i use alas may end appears to be near washington's 20 year, half or 2 nation bill and half denison was always going to end this way. a complete encoder failure. it is doubtful. the corrupt government in kabul will last long after the american withdrawal of dennis and remains broken and the american people, pork and no one is held to account. ah,
7:21 am
welcome back with the taliban, claiming he currently controls 85 percent of afghan territory. a delegation from the group is in moscow right now for talks comes after a number of african soldiers fled across the border into neighboring to g, kissed on an iran fleeing from advancing taliban fighters. the back dropped to that being the imminent to last of all us troops from the country correspondence spoke to a number of the group in the russian capital. send this report. well, essentially this media conference, it was a massive p r. stand by the taliban. the situation is quite out of the ordinary. see the taliban as a group with their band in russia. they're designated as terrorists. but lately in the past couple of years or so, moscow has been offering itself as a platform for talks between the taliban and its opponents. its enemies and so one, so the trump administration, they broke it a deal with a talent, a troops pull out deal. and now the now basically all the processes within the
7:22 am
framework of this deal. they have, they have been set in motion. and in general, the tone of the taliban delegation has been quite civil and especially compared to what we've heard from them back in spring when the threatened military action against any foreign contingency against all foreign troops staying in the country past the may is the 1st pull out deadline, more of the negotiations with the u. s. resulted in a deal which stipulated by may american troops would completely withdraw from african territory. however, due to reasons unknown to us, the official deadline was postponed. recently the us troops have pulled out from the biggest military base there, but grum, so we believe americans will keep their promises. as the united states troops leaving us guy has done the taliban on the rise, essentially, they've been boasting massive gains territory wise. in fact, according to the representatives of the taliban, they fight is an octave,
7:23 am
controlling more than 80 percent of the territory in afghanistan. that even before all of the united states, troops have had a chance to pull out. it perhaps comes as quite puzzling, if not embarrassing, given how much money and time the united states invested in training and equipping the african regular army. in fact, some soldiers have been fleeing so quickly the fighting they to they had to flee across the borders with iran. and did you get done in the north to jake? it's done being a major rushes ally. well, they are worried and russia is worried as well. it even sent its military officers to monitor the situation on the board. and so i asked the taliban representatives if they realize the consequences of attacking a country that's in the same military block with russia and other nations about your the nation has awarded. they do not have borders because we had talks with
7:24 am
them. we are under a lot of contact with them and bay while we are short of them and that there would be another power that create the water is part of empower and other countries. so that is one thing that they have worries. so this to give reassurances to moscow that their mission will not spill over the territory of a gun. it's done. seems to be the major reason as to why the taliban officials have decided to come here to the russian capital. but the foreign ministry, old russia still reiterated that their response, that russia's response will be swift in case of any military action of the taliban against russia, as allies, pushing for if necessary, additional measures will be taken to remain nation in the spirit of the ration centric alliance to prevent aggression auditorium provocation. so lately, in the past couple of days, the town of un officials,
7:25 am
they've been trying to put on a very friendly face of like for example, they've promised equal rights to everybody like education to women, which is something you do not expect from a radical islamic organization. but all of this comes in stark contrast with the reports that we're getting from inside the country. like for example, reports of sharia law being already imposed on the territories under the taliban control. on verified video footage of the taliban fighters allegedly executing their prisoners of war. so when you have this and you have promises, you those have the nationals that worked as interpreters helping out the us military and the country. well, you'd kind of get that the, i've been interpreted on, not reassured by the promises of safety, but there's only one way to see if the taliban puts their money where there was. that is just to wait a new to predicts how long
7:26 am
patients long term care a likely to live has been developed by canadian research. as the calculator, titles respects aims to improve the quality of positive care those behind it say it'll allow people to spend more time with their relatives. the respect calculator allows families and their loved ones to plan. for example, that can help and adult or child blend when to take a leave of absence from work to be with a parent will decide when to take the last family vacation together. the applications are already being trialed in canada. the developer said that it's designed to help sick elderly people who are often deprived of sufficient care in the last years their lives. but it's raised a number of ethical issues such as patient consent and the attitude of medical work is towards them. we put the development up for debates, the so called calculate the fear if he's a dangerous invention because it gives mister legion of scientific reliability
7:27 am
to some, some that these in truth a little more than yes, talk an educated guess. if you, i guess, i mean this tool is, is a development from tools that are already used by, by doctors to help anticipate, to identify when patients might be reaching the end of their lives. and to help those individuals make important decisions. but used to go predictions can easily be wrong and individual cases we have on elias using the newest model and it is all days you are going to die shortly. so that's not bother about trying to save you these technology i fear might encourage approach. well, like, like any, any medical test, it has to be used wisely and interpreted in the light of other information about
7:28 am
a patient. and so the sorts of concerns about unreliability actually suggest we should be using this tool rather than what people might already be. doctors might already be using which are less accurate predictors of when somebody might be reaching the end of their life. we don't have any reliable tools and this, and you calculate that is not reliable to to predict the time of death. and so you will need to have as proper scientists do have you need to have some humility today . how nice that there are some things you simply cannot think. typically the busy ok that wraps it up for this news out. this is, are tina national more not top stories coming away just over 30 minutes of to see that the i
