regional and, and asian powers to organize an orderly withdrawal. and the creation of a stable government in kabul. that one that might have been a government of national unity or a power sharing arrangement or coalition government. instead, the u. s. deliberately left mass. and as the us lead alliance withdraws, what about the afghan nationals who helped foreign troops while they now fear reprisals from the taliban? one group of afghans who desisted. u. k. forces run it on the streets of cobbler friday, demanding protection from the british government. and perhaps it seems that that calls have been heard. 600 british troops have been deployed to safeguard u. k. nationals, and they evacuate from the capitol as well as supporting the relocation of for my afghan stuff. but not everyone's been included with one former interpreter, pleading directly with britain's prime minister to get him out. he says he now lives in fear for money
9:31 am
and the day on that time i'm stay and i can go that entries, any interest for me. you know, i always give it to me. you are eligible for the game on that time. i have been to my in my job and the new way came from me from h one that and that means you must be you. you have to finish all fine and you must you like to reach me. why
9:32 am
did you not? you didn't out in amy interview. tell you the other yellow in the evening. you're not appear to be that in the evening. i was in that you mean to me you of you are in the button for the general not just brought with them. you're not meet the reason it's a desperate situation for them. we also spoke to another interpreter who worked for both british and american forces and who was asked to remain anonymous atmosphere for his life. my family has received threats in the post sometime my some be home was attacked twice. my father has been given
9:33 am
warnings and threats many, many times. my dad name was called that his life will be severely at risk because he offered not one but to offer some this against the italian. recently, one of the interpreter, his father was caught in bacteria a province. he was beaten very badly. and he was asked to ask his son, who is an interpreter, to come and change the cause of the taliban in the past year. and so a number of interpreters have been appealed or targeted by the taliban. recently, one of the interpreter who used to be an interpreter for the american special forces was assassinated by the telephone. of course they will be coming off to them . they'll be coming off to their families and those interpreters. so there will be but should they will be different. americans have gone away versus going away.
9:34 am
everybody is running away. who are they leaving behind? b interpreters who have served for years and years or status. and i've gone to some tracing risk and benches. however, the, you could government instead of saving the lives, bringing them here to live in peace and safety with their kids. they are making excuses and new conditions put in place only to reject their case. it's all i'm hearing from my colleagues is that their cases have been rejected, rejected. there was a number of cases which were told that they were good to go. there were even given they were sent an email confirming that when they were ready for their flights, they are told now that they can really take to the u. k. i and my brother, both of us would interpreter for the coalition forces. my brother is still enough, the british government is making accumulations and excuses to
9:35 am
withhold. not only my brothers, but many of the interpreters who genuinely need the british government's help and are very high risk. it's frustrating for the people who have served the british forces and currently are oppressed. and i think it's a huge is a moral and moral big asian to, to protect those who have worked alongside them enough to understand. i strongly believe that the telephone will hot down every are going to interpreter who so if the british american forces, it will be the african interpreters or who will pay the ultimate price. when i leave this week, britton's defense secretary warned the afghanistan was on the brink of collapse, calling the u. s. decision to leave a mistake, but also predict that the nation will once again become a breeding ground for al qaeda. shoddy edwards dashti has the details on that
9:36 am
paying the tale from totally taking control and shipping that balance of power. now not only will a poverty of course increase on political destabilization, but what's a key worry is terrorism could also still be on the rise and that's why the u. k. the sudden secretary is now saying that pulling out of the region is a huge mistake. now we're in this position where the house click manage across the country. united states are leaving that with an honest yesterday we are leaving alongside them. and that leaves a, as you say, a very, very big problem on the ground developing with the taliban failed states around the world need to instability lead to a security threat to off on our interest. we, we are very clear about that, that fly that the west has to learn that you don't fix problems, you manage problems. pro button wallace has also said that the united kingdom may acts if asked on a star again began to hobb a terrorism, particularly if it posed an international threat like it did arguably some 18 years
9:37 am
ago. but many on to activists argue that the foreign policy has never been to humanitarian mission, nor was it about democracy and only ever saw the land become the place of conflicts and battle ground giving rise to the taliban. and what we see now is the tale about all accelerating the dominance, according to the united nations, the afghan war has now entered his more deadly destructive phase with casualties climbing over one and a half 1000 in the past 4 weeks alone. and all of this really has cause a lot of anger here in britain, even with many m. p, some of which have even served in the connie occupation over the last 20 years. that incredibly angry. and all of that pulling out is a complete mistake. and a huge failure, the operation brokers worse it took families apart, left children orphans and parents to cry alone. the to withdraw is like
9:38 am
a rug pulled from under the feet of our partners. that's why i'm angry. it's wasteful and unnecessary. and why is it personal? because i've seen what it costs and what sacrifices are being thrown away. and i know who's going to pay for it. we will, is incredibly, a tragic and scary time for all of them as a tally, been relentlessly takes over, but ultimately for nato allies, britain and america, the last 20 years ending up like this is incredibly humiliating because they tried to rebuild that unsafe allies. the region and now it seems as though with the telephone takeover, the country could be worse off than us life for moscow. you're watching our see bringing you a full hour of rolling coverage as the taliban retakes afghanistan. just the capital left to go as far as weight on the outskirts of the capital city will have the latest, including all the key developments so far this week on this sunday,
9:39 am
plus international reaction and talk about what next for it's terrified population . the the join me every thursday on the alex simon show when i was speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport, business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me my recent studies, 90 percent of all the money printing for all these different programs never leaves wall street. right, so it just stays on wall. fidel saying, here's an infrastructure bell road tunnels bridge is and they the 2000 paid bill.
9:40 am
they numerated all the things where this one is supposed to go, and then they pass the bell. then they authorize the money to be printed, and then they sent it for distribution to wall street. they want braces on it to be that very clearly in the money philosophy charge, which is always going toward 0, that never goes anywhere. assisted on wall street balance sheet and they use it to buy expensive property. and that's been the story now for more than 20 years. i think it's part of mental health revolution. we increasingly freeze political claims. it's like the language of mental health became more common . so if you disagree with something i said on this program, you know, just say i just agree with you. i think you're wrong because of the following problems in your evidence or logic. you say your micro grass mate,
9:41 am
you say you triggered me. you said your heart be again, so psychological way because news or psychological terms. and i guess an enormous problem for politics because it's almost impossible to have a discourse on that terrain. the the welcome back to remind you that the key points this sunday, everything, golfing the african capital there's the taliban surrounds cobble following rapid national games throughout the week. the medicine group says it's in talks with the government about a peaceful surrender of the see the happen reports in recent hours, the president hash rough gone, a may resigned soon with local media. now saying that the former interior minister is currently heading an interim. government does uncertified video circulating on
9:42 am
line, which also purports to show inmates being released by the taliban from afghanistan's largest jail earlier. they also seized the bag or a military prison, which is located to just 25 kilometers north of the capitol. reports say that's around 5000 conflicts of been set free. mostly taliban fighters, ready to join the assault? ah. meantime this is cobble on sunday, trying to flee the city residents in huge numbers. hundreds of cars stuck in traffic jams as gridlock, procedures, the city. some locals, even just trying to run away on 1st. the river, massive cues is all correspondents in the city of been telling us outside atm says people try and take out as much as they can before they try and leave the city. we discussed the crisis. what's happening there this sunday with an afghan journalist
9:43 am
the few from you because of this already and. busy no peace and situation of the solid on capturing the. busy big cities such as come to my city, why he thought about god into the reaction cover the cheese on a bit. they don't. they don't want to give up to the level so then don't was thought of on and cobbler i myself, i'm afraid and as well as that pupil enough gang. some are afraid because of the parlor long as they are so near to the call. we'll see there is no any support from the government officials yet about the us can journalists, so we are worry about that. we work with some national news news, the genesis and with, with, with, with other like the late fees and the other. this can be done too far for
9:44 am
journalists, so i'm very good. but it's some nation's clothes that cobble embassies and evacuate diplomatic staff. the taliban says that it won't stop foreigners from leaving the country. meanwhile, russia says that its mission is not under threats. and currently has no plans to shut a member of the russian federation council is worried though that a resurgent taliban will try and spread its influence throughout former soviet countries. their reports to the taliban on negotiated with authorities and most likely on the surrender of the city and the transfer of power to the taliban. who's to blame the usa? they brought in troops 20 years ago, supposedly trained an army that's losing ground, that a fight under being abandoned. now, if they are trying to attract the world community, then let them call the un security council and let them decide how to stop what's happening. and i've got this done because bloodshed may begin,
9:45 am
the security council may decide to enforce peace and may even use the troops of other powers to restore peace enough ghana, stan, let's compare that to the withdrawal of soviet troops back in 1989. that was an organized pull out. we left nancy buller there who defended. i've got to stand for the movie, had deemed for years. the americans have not yet managed to leave the territory of afghanistan. and this army, which they supposedly prepared, has turned out to be completely demoralized. we can say for sure that it's unlikely that russia will enter, got this done. and even if there are some peacekeepers, it's unlikely that russia will be part of that. one of the most dangerous things though, is that if the taliban head to the north, where are allies tajikistan and cut a guest on our, we will have to do our duty and protect those states of hostilities in afghanistan . i'm taking a serious toll on the countries humanitarian situation. don't forget, it's already heavily burdened by the corona virus pandemic. we heard from one
9:46 am
charity worker about the pressure the local populations under. as the conflict has escalated over the past few weeks, we've seen a massive humanitarian disaster playing out. the escalating fighting has led to civilian casualties and large scale civilian displacement across the countries. and particularly in the past few weeks, we've seen tens of thousands of people fleeing the fighting to safety. here in cobble, this was also on top of an existing humanitarian disaster in which there was conflict . the ongoing impacts of the 1910 and a drought was announced earlier this year. so half the population even before the latest escalation and fighting with a need to monitoring assistance and those needs are even greater right now. the un warned that nearly 400000 civilians have already fled their homes this year with a particular spike. since may, most of the displaced are reportedly women and children. i hear just some of the
9:47 am
heart wrenching stories we've been hearing from refugees during the week. i have been just from telecon, the telephone call to my son, because all the belongings from my house, i'm satisfied with them and not the punch me in the mouth, causing my teeth to fall out. they demanded my son, and i told them that she's a teacher. so she recently became a teacher and had not even received salary. had a cautious, broken, taken hostage at the fighting for 7 days. but i'm going to go outside and we managed to escape. and now we cannot many african asylum seekers. i'm going to come to the where they might find the normal that welcome with the block now loggerheads over what to do with migrant. since i was fleeing violence next, our teeth pulled. a slayer explores what happened to europe's open door policy. your opinion is split from what to do with african refugees speaking, assign them. in the letter to the european commission, civil countries insisted they have the right to force to be deport those whose
9:48 am
cases have been rejected. they vote that not to deport them, would motivate more refugees, to flee to europe. we would like to highlight the edge of need to perform returns both voluntary and non voluntary to afghanistan, stopping return, send the wrong signal, and it's likely to motivate even more afghan citizens to leave their home for the e. u. the situation in afghanistan is deterioration by the all when it comes to the us and nato prepaid to what's called a troops at the end of the month. after decades long war, the situation is so bad that the netherlands, germany, and france have decided to port the deportation can be for now. the situation in afghanistan is likely to change, and events for the coming period are so uncertain that i have decided to introduce a more atoria on debt partition decisions and departures. greece or spread belgian
9:49 am
and denmark standing. they want that would checked, it assigned them because the e u is not really and does not have the capacity to kind of another major migration crisis. why haven't you guys are waiting make up around 10 percent of asylum seekers there. the 2nd largest group off the syrians and for a continent still scarred by the migration crisis of 56 years ago. there was a feeling of a who, a feeling of having been they before, that has your opinions worried. they might be on the verge of a fish refugee crisis. those people who are here from a gun in time, they're not my. there's a few gees and asylum seeker. and that is why it is very important to remember at all best in countries have signed humor a convention refugee convention. and they are duty bound to has anyone, not only of guns, but syrians are anybody who come to the, to their country?
9:50 am
and as far as them, because you are in the country, are any conflict personnel true to the life? so i think then the western countries say, oh, we don't care if a wonder if you go home or you for them. i think this is a violation of humor. right. and we should do that kind of thing on a week, the scene, i've got to stand situation shift rapidly. i've been discussing with regional analyst how it might develop. hello miss. say that the day the american signed the agreement with the taliban and then they begun to execute it without fulfilling. getting assurances from the taliban side, they started the withdrawal. this in itself involved in the taliban. and the fact that they started taking one district over the other this was not really surprising . i think this was bound to happen. and they cleared the americans have given an
9:51 am
open house to live on. and i think this is somewhat of an agreement. this is found to happen and the fact that they haven't really opposed the sided mind take over the date. in fact, the solid line stopped or hold to the tax against american forces. what little and left of them this region has been destroyed by the united states, and be 19 made 970 is the 1980 is the united states created the taller bond along with the saudis, and their european allies. they were brutal. they constantly bombed ordinary people, 90 percent of the casualties from drawn strikes, according to some numbers for all civilians. over the last 2 years, the hatred towards the united states increased as time went by. and now the americans have been humiliated. i think the human nation is greater than vietnam because in vietnam, rival powers were funding north vietnam and be at the time. but enough on
9:52 am
a sign that you just see a few groups with on motorcycles, with clashing cars and weapons. and they've humid humiliated, a superpower that has spends trillions of dollars in the country and, and wasted so many so much money of the assets of the american people for the imperial war. that for nothing else. okay, just to recap the latest on the taliban advance say not gonna stand. the militant group has now surrounded the capital. cobble with fighters poised on the outskirts of the city, a situation they've been in for the past several hours now. also right now, taliban representatives are reportedly at the presidential palace for negotiations with the government. they claim fighters will won't enter the city until those talks are completed. there's no word on how long they're going to take. meanwhile, there are conflicting reports on the countries president sash rough connie
9:53 am
resigning. he's undoubtedly a weaker position than he was this time 24 hours ago. as for his future, that's still uncertain. there are also reportedly ongoing emergency talks between president ghani the us, and also nato. here's what's going on on the streets of the capital right now with people trying to flee the city in their cars. some abandoning that vehicles in the middle of the road has much of the city get struck by gridlock. all this now means the medicines effectively control every major city in afghanistan. following what spain are rapid and decisive offensive in recent days. they also reportedly control every boulder post across the country to any way to get this house kind of stuff right now is through the heavily defended airport in cobble has been very limited traffic there. a few charter american flights and a couple of other international airlines. but very little else getting in and out. and of course only those are largely got money and managed to get tickets. all
9:54 am
those who be able to leave the city that way. the taliban says that it's also taken bag room add base, a major military facility hastily abandoned by the pentagon. last month without warning. thousands of taliban fighters and islamic state terrorists were held imprisoned there. but not any longer. i'm calling brian moscow. i'll be back with the key development in afghanistan this sunday, plus bringing more international reaction from the region and around the world. and about a few minutes from now. this is our t international from moscow. the rather driven by dreamers shaped by those in me i
