and get back and we will have to do our best and countries the processes people. why do you feel it? so personally mr. wallace can undersold because it's 20 is a sacrifice. is what it is. parliament is being recalled back from some research on wednesday. it begins at 9 30 in the morning, some 5 hours will be dedicated to a debate on this ongoing crisis. i'll be speaking of everything from the war on terra's gender and foreign policy in the 1st place to the very fact that 5 weeks ago, the prime minister far as johnson said that a bon takeover would be out of the question. obviously, that is actually wrong at this point. so many people will be questioning the prime minister on all of that. but what about the intelligence that provided this nato ex, this in the 1st place? i'm crucially, what will happen to all of these refugees over the last 18 years, millions of people in san have been displaced,
10:46 am
and now we are set to see quite undoubtedly another refugee crisis, and as much pressure here in the united kingdom to provide safe and legal passages but in light of quite a hostile context from the home office in terms of its refugee processes as a lot of criticism against the government at this point. so what we'll see on wednesday is a huge array of purchases and most of all, of course, 50000 civilians died during this 18 year occupation. 500 british troops and many people. question. what was it for my colleague research i spoke with our correspond to pull a slip about europe's reaction to the fall of off canister. i think it's fair to say that not just your opinion leaders, but the world in general is in a state of shock here in france, the priority is on evacuation. we have heard from the french president seeing saying that the immediate and absolute power, she is the securing of both french nationals and african citizens who are there
10:47 am
enough can. he's done on the spot. and here they particularly talking about african citizens who have assisted the french government. the 1st flight is slated for monday. and it comes as the french military scenes reinforcements to the united arab emirates, to facilitate with the evacuation process. now all of this is happening as i balls are being raised and questions are being asked as to how the taliban was able to achieve such a quick victory. and certainly we have more more people asking questions as to the policies of foreign countries when it comes to engaging in was i uploaded the u. s . defeated vietnam? i'm sick and by the routing of galveston. it is time to think things over before embarking on data and wars. because if word doesn't solve anything, defeat changes everything at the moment. there's no clear statement as to whether or not countries plan to recognize the taliban as the official government of
10:48 am
afghanistan. we have heard from the british prime minister, both johnson urging countries not to act bilaterally in terms of recognizing the taliban. what he wants to see is a kind of united front with like minded countries responding in the same way. and he believes that that will be the way to prevent of counties done from becoming a breeding ground for further terrorist activity in the past 10 years and less. we've had just every now and again, an exodus of refugees and migrants flooding into europe. now it looks like it's going to start all over again. do you think europe can handle another ways of us as the 1000000 dollar question? many people here don't want to see a repeat of what happened. 56 years ago with the migration crisis that unfolded. then, and certainly speaking to people here on the streets of paris, many of them are nervous that we could be seeing a dish, a room, a piece of that migration crisis. again, as far as europe itself goes,
10:49 am
the continent is split, particularly in terms of what to do with african refugees who made their way here. but actually don't have the white papers in terms of remaining in us as refugees. we did see a number of countries, right, and later to the european commission, insisting that they have the right to same back to afghanistan, those african refugees who don't fit the criteria. but subsequent to that, we did see a number of countries backtrack. so we certainly seen the split inside europe itself in terms of what to do with these migrants. the main concern being expressed by european countries is that they don't have the capacity actually to handle another huge wave of migration. the clock has run out on how long we can wait to adopt the complete overhaul of europe's migration and asylum rules we need. now at the moment they ask gun literature community comprises about 10 percent here in
10:50 am
france. it is the 2nd largest refugee community after the syrians. we are expecting the president emanuel crohn to address the nation at 8 o'clock this evening, local time on the situation in afghanistan. so it will be interesting to see what exactly he has to say at that point. okay, let's go back to the un security council of the emergency meeting that's taking place on what's happening in afghanistan and listen in i thank the representative of ireland for her statement. i now give the floor to the representative of mexico. you have the floor piece which was about to have. thank you very much. president mexico supports the convening of this meeting, this emergency meeting. i think the secretary jennifer has their port on the most recent events, enough son. i also wish to thank the delegations present here today

10:52 am
future must be democratically decided upon by all means, no doubt in my new mexico also and critically deplores the deliberate attacks on the civilian population. those report to reports of summary execution that delivers attacks on women meetings and restrictions and the censure of means of communication are all alarm signs for the international community. and the highest, the price of the political and military entrenched pension of stuff being paid for by the most vulnerable pickup that i did. so yellow, the catastrophic trajectory of funds affect population which finds itself in increasing the precarious conditions with very few options, particularly for women and girls are not money that you made humanitarian personnel . doctors, interpreters,

10:54 am
approved and that the highest international standards be applied to contain because it's traffic impact of the situation i've gone to son is going through. despite the agreement signed and the existence of a robot bust framework of international fighting terrorism, we are also concerned that the door is opened for our son to once again become a safe haven for terrorists. now you wouldn't have any scenario for us, and his son's future must ensure that this is not happen. senior, mister president, the international community, particularly the security council, must prevent a common present a common friend to show that the use of force is an acceptable and the breed commitments must be expected. and that all and political negotiation are given prime chase. we also call those have direct contacts with
