ah ah, the headlines this hour here when i see chaos in gulf cobbles airport as thousands of bath can continue trying to flee the country. disturbing images show people desperately trying to cling to an airplane as of attempted to take off. we understand that some later funding to that dead janice, there was never supposed to been nation, go with many guys now, fearing for the future, the american president now says the only thing the us had to achieve by entering the country was actually just to prevent a para talk back at home the new gotta reality makes you leaders anxious over a potentially massive flow of refugees to europe. envelopes and everything that has followed has not been successful and has not been achieved in

the way we had planned. we must dentist protect ourselves against major, irregular my great to include it is just after 8 o'clock on tuesday morning here at moscow for me, rory sou, show you the entire new scene. welcome to your stories. as we understand, there was a mass exodus now underway in afghanistan with dramatic pictures coming from the capital where a huge stumpy had formed as people tried to leave. the city of fleeing families also stormed the international airport. at least 7 people that reportedly been killed. the taliban minister seized control of the entire country now 2 weeks before the u. s. is set to complete his troop withdrawal after a costly to decade. war the

on verify footage on social media show some disturbing pictures and desperate afghans fearing for their lives attempted to cling onto the outside of a u. s. air force playing a cobble airport. and us officials say at least 10 people lost their lives when they later fell from the aircraft. the bodies that can be seen on the ground or the airport, or the images that come off to another video, emerged on line, reportedly capturing the moment us troops open. what they call preventive fire, the airport, the usa to confirm the 2 armed men. i've been shot well pictures have

also emerged. those are lucky enough to make it onto a plane on sunday, although they would then met with another crush of people this time on board. 640 was said to have packed inside this particular us jet. that says, the pentagon says it's preparing to accept $22000.00 asylum seekers. well, we discussed the ongoing situation that i've gotten asked on with former u. s. navy intelligence officer, stephen rogers. he says he calling to help, but draw parallels with what happened in vietnam. the goal was to ensure that the app in government was strong, that it was a nation where the people were free. it was a nation, ruled by a constitution and not ruled by any dictator or a terrorist organization. so the goal was never achieve. 20 years of work was put into that we have seen is a for caster feet. how do you leave all these people behind the program,

the afghan assistance to, to, to be met with the baby, torture and murder. this reminds me of us. i got, i was in the air force during the time saigon fell. and when i see helicopters in trouble landing on rooftops in an airport and giant u. s. air force planes having refugees, board, those planes reminds me of saigon. and when we see its history repeating itself, so there is no bright future obviously for our dentist spam, but until we make a change in our nation with regard to our foreign policy, we don't have a much of a bright future. meanwhile, the taliban was seen patrolling the streets of cobbled brandishing weapons and heavy military equipment. they will also seen driving around in the bright, their american humvees, along with a sweeping territorial gains to tell about and seems to have a graph not only political power, but also us supplied firepower, namely guns and ammunition. helicopters and more. we called an update on the recent

developments from local journalist bill outside of wadi. it's a massive embarrassment. it's a hard break, it's a tragedy. and it's also the end result of what the last 20 years. all the money, all the investments looked like on the other front. we do have some developments of senior alabama leader. i'm in hon with that. a meeting with a former president. how may cause a chairman of the law, the law, the taller bonds position publicly through statements is that everyone will be safe . no one will be harmed. it also instructed fighters not to go into people's homes and not to bother anyone, but we still don't have any clarity on when the government will be formed. what type of government id will be? meanwhile, a cnn journalist has been widely marked on line for her report on the taliban patrolling the streets of campbell and had taken what was happening during death to

america. they seemed friendly up the same time as utterly bizarre. the tempting death to america. but they seemed friendly, we're literally living in an episode of south park. only cnn could call the taliban chanting dust, america, and mostly peaceful story. or just i see it and facing the flex or giving our contradictory words. the president biden broke his silence on the crisis more than a day after the taliban took control of the country. you claim the u. s. mission, and i've got to start was never about nation building, but a statement was a drastic tote around from past comments. our mission and can stand was never supposed to been nation building. it was never supposed to be created a unified, centralized democracy or only why last interesting, again, stan remains today. what has always been preventing a terrorist attack on american homeland? the failure to establish a solid national government could create a lawless,

safe haven for and to merican terrorists. when you look at what's happening and afghan, stan, you can hardly say that joe biden is blameless. he supported the war 1st in congress and then his vice president. and now he says that his decision for a sudden withdrawl is correct to many. it looks like he has absolutely no clue what he is doing. what in his mind, it all makes perfect sense. we want to have gans dana was 20 years ago with clear goals. get those who attract us on september, 11th, 2001. and make sure i kind of could not use afghans stan as a base from which to attack us again. we did that. now some are remembering how wishy washy joe biden was when it came to the obama white houses decision to take out the lot. and he eventually praise the decision when it fit the overall narrative and emission that will go down in the annals of intelligence and special operations. some of america's most gifted security professionals track

down osama milan, after the trail had gone cold. joe, what do you think? and i said, you know, i didn't know we had so many economists around the table. i said we owe demanded direct answer. mister president, my suggestion is, don't go, we have to do 2 more things to see if he's there. now biden looks a little shaky when you look over other foreign policy decisions as well when it comes to iraq. he voted for the war and he pushed the false claims about weapons of mass destruction. but now he's for withdrawing their to as vice president. he supported prime minister ma leaking and many of argue that he ended up emboldening isis when it came to libya. biden was very outspoken in supporting the overthrow of what was at that time, one of the most stable and economically prosperous regimes on the african continent . now says. a that one was a big hoops as well,

starting to look like biden doesn't really know what he's doing on the global stage . this is something is critics have been pointing out quite loudly in recent years . i think biden has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy, a national security issue over the past 4 decades. remember our biden campaign for office by calling out? donald trump says unpredictable and untrustworthy. when it came, the u. s. foreign policy. well, recent moves in afghanistan are certainly not an argument in jo biden's favor. you know, it's hard to know what's going through biden's mind because he does change his mind on strategic issues and he doesn't have any clear set of guiding principles when it comes to foreign affairs. yes it's, it's somewhat of a crisis, but the crisis happened a long time ago when democrats stopped supporting a non interventionist military policy when, when democrats were all in favor of going into iraq and going into afghanistan and

when they supported hillary clinton and obama, when we when the united states military got involved in libya and other places, they already lost the logical battle they are in a crisis happens. so this is just another symptom of bad policies within the democratic party. and the democratic party losing the good things that it ever had that it stood for. meanwhile, you laid is a growing increasingly worried about how the situation is developing enough gone, it's gone. and they say the chaos could spread to europe with a huge new flow of refugees. the french president and the german chancellor were among the 1st to raise their concerns. that's, that's unblocked as it is now, a given that okay, it can no longer carry out attacks against the united states from ghana as they did on september 11, 2001 with everything that has followed has not been as successful and has not been achieved in the way we had planned this one was on the c p. we must anticipate and protect ourselves against major irregular my great re flows that would endanger

those who use them and feed trafficking of all kinds. we will therefore take the initiative to build without delay, a robust, coordinated, and united response that will involve the fight against irregular flows. even before recent events, the number of asking people fleeing in the country each week was estimated in the 10s of thousands that is now expected to grow rapidly. the u. s. president has faced criticism for lack of any response to the looming crisis and for holiday and get his presidential retreat. however, on his return to the white house, he immediately authorized half a $1000000000.82 african refugees. in america isn't the destination of choice for most of those migrants. as peter oliver now reports, europe has watched on in horror at the speed at which 20 years of nato occupation of afghanistan was turned around. by the taliban advance sit down north triple a. p

. it is a challenge for peace and international stability against terrorism and those who supported smith and grant. this is an extremely bitter development. the leader, dramatic and terrifying. now have to concentrate on the rescue. we don't want anybody bilaterally recognizing the taliban, and we want to united a position amongst all the like minded. as far as we can get one, as hundreds of thousands of people have already fled their homes. enough gone, it's done, and many more are expected to do the same here in germany, the man who's looking to replace angle, a miracle as chancellor says, we can't be allowed to let recent history repeats itself. we have to give our 1st joint european and trans atlantic response this week. the mistakes in dealing with the syrian civil war must not be made again. 2015 should not be repeated. the us quitting galveston and the return of the taliban is set to see a rise in both seeking sanctuary. but just where these people going to go,

there is already around 3000000 afghan people displaced in iran. over 2000000 of whom are undocumented. to ron has suggested that it could set up more refugee camps on its east in border, but that would require funding with eyes looking towards the you for help. pakistan is home to 1400000, registered african refugees and asylum applicants. but along with turkey, which is housing over $3000000.00 syrian refugees, islam about an anchor, a king to work together to stop more arrivals. take your turkey is facing a growing wave of african migrants transiting through iran. we will continue efforts to enable the return stability in the region beginning with afghanistan. and to do that, we have to pursue and strengthen our cooperation with pakistan. e. u. member states, all very aware that europe is a destination of choice for many fleeing. i've got this done so much so that earlier this month, 6 member states put their name to

a letter warning. how stopping deportations back to afghanistan would be viewed stopping return since the wrong signal, and is likely to motivate even more f considered sense to leave their home for the you many hope the 2015 refugee crisis was a warm, soft, not to be repeated event. it would see know that reality may have different plans. right now. we know that up to 5000000 guns of thinking to leave their country and added would be much more than we have seen. and 2015. the overwhelming majority. we know from the pole in germany and continental europe don't want to see a new wave of mass migration, especially not from afghanistan, where people after 40 years of war for them it's

extremely difficult to, to integrate into the very liberal and feminine european societies. so there is a consensus from the center to the right. don't let them in and don't agree with the 2nd 2015. so the u. k is the foreign secretary has also taken some flack for not cutting short his holiday sooner as it became apparent the taliban was sweeping . afghanistan. dominic rob only returned to britain on sunday. it's all jesus shoddy. edwards dashed you now reports. well, the question here in the united kingdom is, where is the government and where is the leadership in responding to the crisis in the stone? in fact, the last time we heard from the prime minister of ours johnson last week, he says the president should be incredibly proud of what it's achieved in the region. obviously in light of his complete, tiny bon take very questioning response. indeed in today, the prime minister is hosting a cobra. me saying that's

a meeting where the cabinet should all be attending, but the foreign secretary dominic rob is known to be seen as he's on holiday. and obviously it's his job to try and deal with these international issues, particularly in regards to foreign policy that has really sparked and instigated a whole host of criticism against him for the foreign secretary to go a while during an international crisis of this magnitude is nothing short of a shameful, i think it was amazing, staggering that the foreign secretary was still on holiday, while f canister was collapsing to the taliban. you've got to be on duty during that sort of period where we're so deeply and intimately involved in it. we haven't heard from the foreign secretary and about a week despite this being the biggest single foreign policy disaster in suez. so i don't know what the foreign office is thinking over say the united kingdom has been part of this nature occupation over the last 18 years, the brit 1st and initially went in under the international pretense of a pro,

humanitarian and pro democracy mission. however, all of you believe, but the very fact and speed of this taliban take as many people point to the defeat for military politically. the sounds is a very humiliating time for the west and that foreign policy because the west has always predicated its entire regimes on being the most robust. and it's not just on to activists that have this point of view. but even some tory back benches in government, this is completely humiliate for the west. we assembled the most incredible technologically advanced lines. the world is ever seen and were being defeated by an insurgency that armed with a k 40 sevens in all p. jeez. this will be the biggest own goal made by the west. so far this century, the humanitarian disaster that is about to unfold will be catastrophic. the migration challenges will be huge. we will see further terrorist attacks. we know over the weekend, 600 troops deployed as

a rescue mission to try and get these people back safely. that includes british nationals, but also gone is that help assist the british army during the occupation already around 300 people have been flown back. the idea is around 122-1500 throughout the next few days till the coastal full 1000 brought home. but we've seen absolute, chaotic scenes cobble as well. what we do know is the military side of the airport, as in the british side where. a the british planes are in the airport on this point in time, are secure. however, the defense secretary ben wallace here in the united kingdom speaking how they are today. and a radio interview became a very, very emotional. he even became quite choked up. some people get back and we will do our best and countries, the processes people. why do you feel it? so personally mr. wallace can undersold because it's 20 years of sacrifice is what it is. parliament is being recalled back from

some research on wednesday. i think i'll be speaking of everything from the war on terror as gender and foreign policy in the 1st place to the very fact that 5 weeks ago the prime minister of foreign johnson said that a tale 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? and crucially, what will happen to all of these refugees over the last 18 years, millions of people in actually saw have been displaced. 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. there's 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 the russian foreign ministry has said the situation unfolding enough going on is the natural result of the u. s. and nato troop withdrawal critics, a washington's approach all along to the country has played directly into the hands of the taliban. as he is eager to don off now explains they've done it finally from siri and libya in the middle east to venezuela and cuba and latin america. washington has a decades long history of failed attempts to bring anti government militia is to power. and at last they've crack the code in i've got, has done with the taliban. apparently all they had to do is instead of aiding them, they should have just fought against them all this time. thanks to our military and

our allies and the brave fighters of afghanistan, taliban regime is coming to an end. there is little doubt that our greatest military challenge right now is afghan. stan, we must reverse the tale, bonds, momentum, and deny of the ability to overthrow the government. our troops will fight to win. we will fight to win. it all started so well. the us invaded the taliban, fled to the mountains. the us trained and trained and train the new. i've got an army, spend billions on supplying it with more noms. we spent over a trillion dollars. we trained and equipped an afghan military force with some 300000 strong, gave them every tool they could need. all of this in vain, only for the taliban to seize all the equipment as soon as i've got to stand fools

which strengthen their already solid position in the country. the comprehension of the situation on the ground was also far from what you might expect from the country, deeming itself the military and intelligence superpower. the united states currently lacks a comprehensive strategy to gates reconstruction efforts in afghanistan. it also lacks overarching plants with clearly defined metrics to guide its work in a number of key areas such as anti corruption, connor narcotics, health, education, gender, rule of law and water. all this lead to the inevitable corruption, the thriving within the security forces. there glaring ineffectiveness and as a result, lack of trust to the us backed institution from locals. the african population perceives places predatory bandits and calls them the most hated institution. in the country. around 30 percent of the recruited place of deserted whether issued weapons to set up their own private checkpoints and extort money from travelers.

various sources before the telephone calls were preferrable alternative, and that they were perceived as accessible, fast and less corrupt than the government established courts. so when the u. s says something like this, that force proved incapable of defending the country. and that did happen more rapidly than we anticipated. is it that big of a surprise? i mean, really well, but at least this time america is meddling actually lead militant group. even one recognized as terrorists by many states to gain total control over a country of galveston who failed. the united states failed and they failed to train the api and military. but to be honest, this isn't even the 1st time where we've in something like this. remember how much the united states invested in in nation building in iraq and how the iraqi security forces word. at 1st sight of islam extended, it was very obvious to me. as soon as you know,

you said that it would be withdrawing that this was essentially the same thing as hinting the keys to the towel them. but i truly do not believe that the american public understood this. and i'm not even sure that the bite in administration understood the seed. this is what happens when you try to impose a western concept of them, but democratization onto a culture that has absolutely no concept of, of it. i mean, they didn't, they never had an army there before, and they, they were more involved in insurgencies and then we tried to build an army. this was totally alien to them. so none of this is surprising. and many of us very early on were saying this is a, a prescription for disaster. and this outcome is very dismayed. on the one hand, i feel very badly for the asking people because they have really taken the brunt of,

of this miscalculation both by their own leadership. and by the united states government. officer, china, off the arabic, spoke to mohammed, naive from the taliban political office. the group, though is of course, to class by most countries in the world as a terrorist organization. i think that the answer to this question is really obvious. the world can see that the territory of afghanistan is now under the control of the atlantic m. are these law mchenry waged war against the occupation in order to create an independent islamic state? it was claimed that there were 20 different terrorist groups, perhaps more or less operating enough chemist on that. but when the law mac eminence and asked to cease far a few years ago, not a single shot was fired. and then the lama camera struck in agreement with the u. s . there were rumors in the media and reports the different groups were in conflict over this agreement. but the truth is that no one broke disagreement. then the

groups joined the taliban and the invaders announced their departure. then more and more groups began to join the moods at dean oh, no, joe biden appears confused in some of his statement. the withdrawal of us troops had to be carried out in a strictly organized manner. after signing the agreement, we told the us that the withdrawal should take place in a strict order to an agreed schedule. we told them that every meeting and then when they postpone the withdrawal for 4 months or longer, we told them the same. i don't know why there is a chaos and confusion intention. why the dramatic event took place a couple airport. the scenes caused pain to all afghans and also cause fear in those trying to leave the country. well, that's a wrap of this ours coverage of the unraveling situation in afghanistan. of course

you've been following it very closely here on us. he getting as much inside as we can from people on the ground and analysis from experts all around the world. we will continue to do so in the coming hours and days for the meantime. your program returns in half an hour the the the join me every thursday on the alex silent show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politic sport business. i'm show business, i'll see you then me

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy plantation, let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk. the unexpected upside of the pandemic? kenya is experiencing an elephant baby boom. 200. why does kenya have so many cars? and how has the panoramic impacted people's lives? is andree role is a very big along in any fact he end up killing himself. ah, i don't believe nearly. and then you got one via, well, and i will make up

a little was no do to pm media group they get, they say lucky to me. mean thing in it, because at that of the, one of the been a day that the they didn't even notice whether they call to do it, but i know the company just wasn't going whatever it is. this is boom. but the one business show you can't afford to miss branch a bore in washington coming up. volatility continues to slam china as the delta vary and the natural disaster hit the country hard. straight ahead, we discussed the choppy condition facing the world's 2nd largest economy and

afghanistan, and has now been taken by the alphabet. as the last of the u. s. embassy staff has been evacuated from the nation. we take a look at what impact a turmoil could have on international market. and later we look at the recovery in the airlines sector as mass cancellation and delay issues hit the industry hard with impact. so today that right in the and we leave the program with economic data out of the world 2nd and 3rd largest economies. let's start with china. factory output for july and the 2nd largest economy increased by 6.4 percent year over year coordinate data released by the national bureau of tactics on monday. missing analysts expectations after thing 8.3 percent growth in june. also missing predictions retail sales. they were up 8.5

percent in july.
