a possible repeat of the 2015 micra crisis. and 20 years and 3 trillion dollars later us political commentator shares his thoughts on whether the war was worth it about. we invade the inner cities of america and we bring a health care to those people. we bring shelter to those people. we bring medicine, those people, we bring counseling to those people. how about we invade america and we start trying to help americans. ah, my brother because he wanted to read from our studios in moscow. this is our to international. i'm showing thomas in the glad to have you with us. now 3 people are confirmed to be killed in the african city of july, about where telephone fighters opened fire on a protest against the groups. seizure of power a dozen more were injured. it comes

a day after the militants bound to bring peace to the country. the. the group opened fire after people started taking down the groups, black and white banner and flying the african national flag. instead. public resistance to the telephone takeover has been limited, though similar protests have been seen in other provinces. for example, further south in the city, of course, people also tore down the telephone's banner from the main square and hoisted the old african flag. instead. taliban fighters opened fire soon enough, but no casualties were reported. their local journalist belong, worry, says the militants are under greater scrutiny these days with everything ending up online. one's going to install the african national flag. if you are the taliban, you would have not expected this 20 years ago. today, it's a different up on it's done. there's

a younger generation people have access to social media. so we will have to see what is the official position of this other bond about this issue right now. this is a major headache for the taliban soldiers trying to police the city a city. i don't. busy know a city that's too complicated and vacuum. some people have just thought ok, this is the time. let's go and pick up some vehicles in weapons on for more facials at the thought of. i have been shedding at their what's up number, the number of cell phones asking residents to basically get in touch if they saw such incidents. and they have been rather swift in quick, in terms of responding 20 years ago, no one could speak and had access to social media. did i want to start watching in the world is watching? in the meantime, a more serious threat to the telephone's power grab is forming in the countries north. it is reported that around $10000.00 african army soldiers are rallying in punch here province. it's the only region of afghanistan that is still contested.

it was an outpost of telephone resistance in the 1990 s, and was never captured during the civil war. it also held out during the soviet invasion, pancillo province is located within a valley of steep mountains that form a solid natural defense spearheading the resistance. there now is the afghan, 1st vice president, umbrella sally. unlike us nato, we haven't lost spirit and see enormous opportunities ahead. useless caveats of finished joined the resistance. sally has declared himself afghanistan's legitimate acting president after his former boss fled the country. amid the telephone's advance on cobble, he has fought the islamist before and was also in charge of spying on the militants leading the national security director and other key figure is helping him rally the resistance altogether. mother masoud, the son and namesake of a prominent african warlord,

who opposed the 1st taliban rule. here's what my food was saying back in june about defending his homeland. they're going to fight for the rights of the people. they're going to fight for the rights of women and they're going to pay for many other values. the church. busy and you look at you from the past to see that you're the 1st line of defense. we're defending europe, you're defending division, and i have cancer fighting, not just for themselves, but for everyone. and videos have already started emerging on line of the resistance forces. here you can see the troops flying the green and white flags of the northern alliance. this was formed after the telephone 1st came to power in 1996 and the father group until the last led invasion. we discussed the emerging resistance with a number of experts and opinion is divided over whether it poses any real threat to the telephone. whether you to remain machine how strong this is going to be. but it is a moment to sort of symbolic way because a ton of banners one control of the country, pretty much all of

a small package resistance could be remaining there and they could develop designs can doomed in the short term not get very big. but i think one big question will be whether any foreign countries don't recognize north and line any other resistance group and to try and ostracize. and i'd like to try to been given that once the value, the conser district has a history of standing up against any kind of an italian rule legged with soviet, later to the civil law. i'm the one that did a good job. all those were pushing on the rally around the literacy of i met some some who at the moment i'm given that to vice president stared back and he's making the claim he's going to be very, i'll on the mental in terms of going listening, that particular opposition which was in there pretty slowly coming together. this fight promises to be

a bloody one. as the taliban has got its hands on the high tech arsenal worth billions gifted by the americans to the afghan army. the us national security adviser faced some embarrassing questions about all the weaponry left behind. those black hawks were given to the tall one. they were given to the african national security forces to be able to defend themselves. we don't have a complete picture, obviously of where every article of defense materials has gone by. certainly a fair amount of it has fallen into the hands of the taliban. and obviously we don't have a sense that they are going to readily handed over to us at the airport. taliban fighters have been parading around a couple showing off their new made in america, rifles and humvees, and telephone social media accounts have been posting videos, films in other cities and regions of arms originally supplied by western powers. earlier we spoke to the founding editor of the online new site. this can't be happening. he says, the seized weapons wouldn't stand

a chance against for an enemy. because of the nature of the tele, bon african army wasn't being armed, fight against a, a high tech opponent. so i'm not sure that it gives the tell, but a lot of material to oppose a force that's getting arm saved from the wes, they've got some pretty fancy stuff and they may have a lot of like hardware they don't have any of the really high tech stuff they don't have any aircraft, missiles and things like that because the, the afghan military wasn't supplied with those. so i'm not sure it gives them a great advantage. they wouldn't have things for attacking another power coming in . because the they were being armed against the telephone. remember, comedian jimmy, dora has some advice for washington on how to avoid such humiliations. he shared it with option ritathui on r t is going underground. you want a u. s. intervention

a military intervention. tell me about which country you want the u. s. intervening . and i think it's about, i mean, because a lot of people are saying we need to stay in africa and they help the women. i say, how about united states takes about 3 or 4000 troops and invade los angeles and brings health care and medical aid, and shelter to the 60000 homes, people in los angeles. how about we invade the inner cities of america, and we bring health care to those people? we bring shelter to those people. we bring medicine to those people. we bring counseling to those people. how about we invade america? and we start trying to help america. when is, when is america going to care about the women? and, you know, one out of 5 kids in america lives in poverty. so if you want to help people, why don't you give women and children want to have women, a living wage in the united states give them health care and give them an education . ironically,

that's what the government up gavin ended up until we invented the taliban. if you took said there's 600000 according to statistics or 600000 homeless people in america. a lot of those are women. lot of those are children. now if you gave them each a $1000.00 stipend a month, a $1000.00 a month, to go get housing. that would cost $7200000000.00 a year. 7.2000000000. you know, we've been spending 2 trillion dollars or the last 20 years, 300000000 dollars a day to kill people and get it then. so the united states ever really cared about women. they could spend a $7200000000.00 to do or take care of the homeless people in the united states. give them a 1000 that they won't do it. so yes, joe biden, nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, mitch mcconnell, all the leaders and both parties. they know that they're, that one out of 5 children lives in poverty in the united states,

along with their mothers. and they don't care. ah, for afghanistan itself, it's international airport in the capitol saw more chaotic scenes on wednesday sobs and cries, this unverified video shows african women at the air hub, pleading with us gods let them in america and other western countries are prioritizing, getting their own nationals out. first, meanwhile, with crowds of afghans queuing outside the perimeter, it is now confirmed. the us troops have fired warning shots as quote, a crowd control measure. now the area surrounding the airport though is being patrolled by telephone fighters who also opened fire to disperse the crowds. they are reportedly not shooting at people. the long queues have also formed outside different embassies in cobble made up of people hoping to escape. france has moved

its embassy to the capitals airport to speed up processing and ensure greater safety for those trying to flee the fall out reaches beyond afghanistan, borders, several european nations are refusing to take in refugees from the country ripping wide open old divisions over mass migration with many fearing a repeat of the crisis of 2015, when more than a 1000000 people came to europe, ortiz policy here picks up the story there. while an increasing number of european nations are refusing to accept refugees from afghanistan, what they most afraid of is a repeat of the 2015 migration crisis and countries. i'm not afraid to admit that you have, for example, austria saying that it's against immigration. the interior minutes to say that the aim of europe should be to keep the bulk of the african population in the region. at the same time we heard from hungary saying it's refusing to take in more refugees. it is,

it won't make its citizens pay for the quote floor the decisions of the united states wanting from the french president in manuel crohn has come under fire for using the term irregular migration coming from a gunny son. and this had left a lot of people angry micron disorder and france. he mainly wants people to stay there. he doesn't give a damn about anything. it is important for him that no one comes to us. what about the right to asylum? what about these children? these women, these men, her flaying the terror of the taliban, france must not stand aside. concret actions are needed. now, no venial wait for this has agreed to pay. can 5, not 50, not 500, not 5000, but 5 refugees. how many times in the last 3 days have we heard your pin nita's talk about human rights? they seem to be saying all the why things when it comes to love and compassion and justice. and yet the reality speaks

a very different story. these huge coral at the moment between brussels and member states and that quarrel is over quoted. it's over protective measures and the like . at the same time we've heard these european needed practically weeping when it comes to the issue of women's rights. and yet it just remains words, it's almost like it's span cpr. the overall sentiment really is one that europe does not want migrant and they're not going to be offering any kind of helping hand . and just in case you need further proof of this, germany has come under fire for using military ships to bring some 65000 cans of beer to germany instead of bringing hundreds of guns and their families who have hoped the german authorities in afghanistan. these people were not going to be

and they have not been evacuated in time. the german president has said that the gun turmoil shamed the waste the images of desperation at campbell airport. shameful for the political west. we are experiencing a human tragedy for which we share responsibility. pearlin must do everything it can to bring our people and all afghans who stood for years by their side to safety, germans are increasingly worried about an influx of refugees. almost 2 thirds of the population has admitted that they are concerned about a repeat of the 2015 migration crisis. now this comes as important. elections are to be held next month, a general election in germany, and presidential elections that will be held in april next year in from the issue of migration is likely to be a hot potato. come those elections, which is why you have politicians fighting over the us gun migration. attention

crisis. the u. k. parliament has been recalled from its summer recess to debate the situation and i'm going to stand including repatriated, people, and taking in refugees. britain has pledged to resettle 20000 afghans, but only 5000 in the 1st year. the withdrawal and in suing chaos has left many in peace, incense. the reputation of the west to support democracy across the world has suffered recent offence, not gonna stand, shade and the west trying to infiltrate the western example of democracy, possibly was a roots that we should reconsider. we look at many options. mister speaker, including the potential for staying longer ourselves. factoring complacency from our government. was our intelligence really? so whole. what would the, what would i do differently? i wouldn't, i suppose sexual failed shouting now shop, take the time,

doing everything the time to get these people. so what does everything that mean that evacuation had to go ahead? we get this done in a expeditious fashion as we can all sacrifice deserves better than this. and so to the people they say on lives on their life for that's when i'm can i hope it will support just 5000 in the 1st year. what are the 15000 men to do the final round and wait until they've been executed? case issues are working, run the hundreds of thousands of british people have flown tough, going to serve the prior to flu, to avoid public service. this is off the mac marketing point, rafael, the filing system. the politicians decided to withdraw. the politicians must be responsible for the consequences. while parliament was debating inside protesters gathered to condemn the government's response to the current events. mon goes where people with family entrapped in the country, with some carrying sign,

saying africans have been left to be butchered. the protesters are demanding more people be brought sooner to the u. k. also in the crowd, the british ex position leader. i'm hoping that the government will both explain the chaos of the evacuation will agree on a much larger number of refugees, counties. this count for them dropped the anti refugee rhetoric presence to tell us in the past few mom bubble, give us something thing thinking to learn the foreign policy. lesson britain. after all, the chances of training the afghan britain, after all set up a timing cool to the army and the result is not going to go by earlier we heard from for reba. have bt the daughter of a british national stuck in afghanistan. she told us officials have done little to help bring back her elderly mother. her mother is a 79 years old, fragile disabled woman was previous history of

a stroke. and she is currently going through severe arthritis and which is waiting for our surgery. and so she cannot travel without a wheelchair access, and she has services from the airport and freshman issue is not on the twice at the airport by crowd boston. just trying to get into these slides and other civilians who was trying to flee couple. so she wasn't able to afford the slides because of her medical condition when she attended in the office. was it extra on and the couple on stress? surely she was constantly being dismissed by the guard. i tried literally bombarding their twitter account, the social media current, trying to get their attention to and bear in mind and pay attention to my mother's condition. unfortunately, every time i contacted them, i was given. the same call continues on. the embassy was insisting and encouraging

. all citizens to try and seek commercial flights, which on question me day full, been suspended because of the u. s. groups trying to control the airport. us president joe biden says he knew there would be chaos in afghanistan, but he decided to pull out the troops anyway in an interview with a b. c. news by an admit, he knew the withdrawal would cause for the turmoil in the country already torn apart by decades of war. i don't think it could have been handled in a way that we were going to go back in hindsight, look. but the idea that somehow there's a way to have gotten out without chaos and suing. i don't know how that happens. i don't know how that happened. the decision seems to have caused biden dearly back home with the u. s. president's approval ratings sharply hitting an all time low. here's our correspondent, kill him up and with commentary. the chaotic scenes and cobble have certainly not

been good for the white house. the approval rating of joe biden has now dropped to less than half only 46 percent of americans say they like the jobs the new president is doing now. the events in afghanistan have certainly been a factor because prior to them he was at 53 percent. so a 7 percent drop seems you have resulted. some polls are now showing that joe biden was handling of afghanistan is less popular than george w bush's handling of afghanistan. and we now have a situation where a senator bob menendez, representing the u. s. foreign relations committee of the senate. he's coming forward with this statement. the events of recent days have been the combination of a series of mistakes made by republican and democratic administrations over the past 20 years, including the trumpet, ministrations, flawed negotiations with the taliban. and the biden administration's floored execution of the u. s withdraw. the committee will seek

a full accounting for these shortcomings. now republicans are being far less forgiving. they say that jo biden's decision to rapidly pull out of afghanistan is harming the united states, discrediting the country, hurting relations with allies. there's been a fire storm of anger from the republican side of the aisle this by did ministration said they planned for every scenario. they told us today prior that coble cobble was not imminent, he told us less than a month before that this would never happen. yesterday. president biden would accept responsibility and explain how he would fix the catastrophe of galveston. instead, he blamed his 3 previous asses and against the ford. beside our troops for 20 years, thing pointing won't solve this crisis boaters. there should be top to bottom accountability at the pentagon and within the administration for this disaster that this stunning failure has been met with silence from biden's cause into serious question. his ability to carry out his duties as commander in chief, the president,

failure to acknowledge his disastrous withdraw, provides no comfort to americans or afghan partners whose lives hang in the balance . now to add insult to injury, there are millions, if not billions of dollars of weapons. we're talking gun ammunition tanks, helicopters that have simply been abandoned. these were weapons that were given to the u. s. trained afghan forces and they seem to have been left behind. and from what jake sullivan was, the national security adviser to joe biden says it's pretty unlikely that the taliban is simply going to hand them over at the airport. now. nancy pelosi stepped up and defended the president on this point. i command the president for the action that he took. this is what happens when you withdraw you some stuff. some equipment is left there. now joe biden stands by his decision. he says that there were not ever been a good time for the usa to pull out of afghanistan. this would have resulted at any point in which this happened. he says he did the right thing. polls are showing

americans are not pleased. there is also some outrage in the international community, not a good day for the white house. biden's, denial of american nation building enough dentistry has been slammed by china with beijing saying u. s. military intervention has not only been unproductive there, but also in plenty of other places as well. would you lead all by then? i have noticed that the president biden said that the goal of the united states and of scanner stern is not to reveal the contrary. she was right in iraq, syria, or a dentist, and wherever the u. s. military goes, it leaves behind turmoil, division, and destruction of homes and people. it has always lived behind the shambles. the power and role of the united states is destruction, not construction. the chinese foreign ministry spokesperson affirmed that beijing respects half dentist and sovereignty and avowed that china will help to rebuild

the war torn country and sword. anyone seeking to harm china from afghan territory? we discussed pages, criticism of america's actions with politics. professor joseph gregory mahoney, who says u s. involvement in central asia has always been destabilizing disengagement from afghanistan is generally recognized as part of washington's efforts to re position strategically against china. so for this reason alone, we shouldn't be surprised by beijing's criticism, you know, american involvement in central asia, starting in the late 19 seventy's up to the present, has always been the stabilizing. when the u. s. entered after 911, was incredibly due stabilizing. that not just for us, but the whole region, especially as the americans put our bases and several other central asian countries, creating new security risk. also for china and russia with the current american

withdraw. tony's criticism is not the u. s. is leaving. rather it's the complete mess it's made and it's departure starting with trumps unilateral deal with italy. bon, followed by by these incredibly, the stabilizing character. i think china will try to work positively with the taliban. but keep for some time a little bit of a diplomatic distance. i think they will. ready work through their pilot later, but pockets time to try to shape the situation. now spend more positively. that's a rap on this ours coverage of the unraveling situation in afghanistan. we've been following closely and we'll continue to do so. this is our live international from oscar. the

the look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except when the short or conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. the point obviously is to great truck rather than fear take on various jobs with artificial intelligence, we'll summoning the demon a robot must protect his own existence with now we have e cigarettes. i just heard that it was a healthy alternative to figure out how do we trust tobacco companies with their message that these new products are actually going to reduce? are these,

these are making the tobacco have been tours ah, this has been bus one visit. sure. you can't afford to mess, i'm ready to 11 and i'm friendship or in washington coming up. the u. s. has moved to stop the taliban from recessing afghan funds stored in the country just as days after the group take over the nation straight ahead. we break down the decision and we have received further insight into the future of monetary policy from the u. s. federal reserve. when will the paper begin? we have an expert on hand to discuss, then to be the subject of an investigation over a soft driving cars will discuss why to us senators are telling the fcc that tesla is misleading customers and endangering the public tac toe. today for dive right in

the we leave the program today with the latest on the state of us data found central bank and the site for $9500000000.00 in reserve stored here in the us. the vitamin ministration says it has frozen those assets, which are mainly held by the new york federal reserve with government officials fleeing the country and the taliban. assuming control washington says it can't give the group access to the money because they are on the us. sanctions list while the white house says it has moved to cut off funding for the afghan government that is no longer in power. lawmakers here in washington are now calling on the i. m. f. to cut off a plan, deposit of $460000000.00, which will be sent to the country on monday. and the name of corona virus relief funding. that people have asked janice that have survived 20 years of the u. s.

military bombing and constant occupation now they're transitioning into the side of war that is felt by countries like men, waylon, and iran were washington is at odds with their leadership and attempts to suffocate them financially. while hoping that other countries like china and russia don't get to quote. so joining us now that discusses professor, well, 1st of economic update and author of the sickness is the system. now professor, we have president vitamin saying he is done with this war. yet, at the same time, his administration is still trying to control the country's money. why is that? well, you know, it's a mystery to most of us in the world that are watching the fact that the united states was going to leave. afghanistan has been known officially for many months. and it was known unofficially and many capitals around the world for at least the last year and a half. they have prepared all kinds of programs and proposals for the new

afghan government. they've been doing it for
