the women's issues. girls going to schools, administration being handled by professionals and by, by experts. these are all the things that people are waiting and watching the news. women's rights are one thing and pictures and advertising's or another thing. so the paula one have announced officially at least, but they will wide by the law and sharia and islam has given rights to women. and according to this slumming area, they will allow women to go to school, go to work, pursue their careers as long as it's in the confines of the slavic sharia. it's very clear that islamic sharia has certain conditions,
6:05 am
certain principles and certain guidelines, right. more pictures we want to show you day to day life has to go on bestbuy. com, but things are different with the telephones. policies on women's rights, for instance, yet unclear, this little snapshot of how life's been affected. check this beauty salon reportedly taking preventative measures. painting over women's faces on their advert. local se, the owners are afraid of repercussions from the taliban. elsewhere though, for those who stay life appears to be returning to a bit of a semblance of normality case and point to the taliban. patrolling the streets seems helping traffic police. this is in the city of god. as in eastern afghanistan, markets are open. st. same the see for yourself full of cars. local say the security provided thus far has been okay. well, also mentioning to a growing worry about a shortage of some supplies, businesses and shops are again open in july to july,
6:06 am
about the 5th largest city in the country. then there's this billions of dollars worth of advanced weaponry and heavy armor. it's been a ended by the u. s. ms. partners and i've gone, the son was not going to go. this video shows the inside of one former nato bass in the country as they beat that hasty retreat. the us president saying the success of the evacuation is reliant on the cooperation of the taliban completion bargains. 31st depends upon the tale bond continuing to cooperate and allow access to the airport for those who are trans, we're transporting out no disruption to our operation. in addition, i've asked the pentagon and the state department for contingency plans to adjust the time table. should that become necessary or the other one? let me remind you that the deadline for the american withdrawal is the 31st of august. i can very my message again to the americans to evacuate all its allies by this time because they have the capability, they have planes,
6:07 am
they have the airport, they must evacuate all the troops and those people who are linked to for this. so the message is clear with the withdrawal and the way retired us generals and problem and capitol hill. politicians have been calling on the continuation though of the 20 a campaign the it seems the main story made it. these people are being heard on, however, may be ignoring the fact that some could have vested interest in companies selling weapons done. one quarter covers continue, the afghanistan occupation calls to delay the pull out of us led coalition troops have hit the mainstream media. when the decision was announced. months ago, i said that i fear that we would come to regret this decision. and we already are, this again, is a nightmare when we were there, we had the cooperation of the afghans we worked with the military. there were a lot of partnerships and ball. this is a national security threat. or these just a bunch of overly patriotic americans. it's unlikely you see the taliban victory
6:08 am
crashed the prophet party of america's gigantic military industrial complex. and the mainstream media often omits that many overly jingle western military officials have investments in that very institution. take former us general j. kean. he also happens to be the chair of the company that produces humvees and sits on the board of another company that produces military equipment. so wouldn't you know, he thinks it was a bad idea to leave afghanistan. i think the administration made a terrible mistake and, and pulling our troops out and, and given the talem on the opportunity to take the country over and, and now we're going to inherit the epicenter of radical islam, right inside of it inside about canis. and it's going to become a more dangerous place. there's also retired us general david portray. it's a partner at a global private equity firm called k k r, which has assets in the u. s. defense sector. and richard hoss is a former white house adviser who sits on the board of the investment firm lazarus,
6:09 am
a firm that also serves defense companies. and we can't forget former us defense secretary leon panetta, senior counselor at beacon global strategy is hardly an unbiased party. another fare mention is florida republican mike waltz, who made up to $25000000.00 in profits. after selling a defense firm, which has offices in afghanistan. the problem is terrorism. that opens up ghana. stan doesn't stay in afghanistan. we will see all kind of 3.0. they are working closely with the taliban and they do tend to attack. i'm a former secretary of state condo. liza rice offered her $0.02 on y. america's longest war was not long enough. 20 years may also not have been enough to consolidate all gains against terrorism, and the sure our own safety we and they needed more time. once again, rice's place on the board of c 3, a i,
6:10 am
a defense contracting company is conveniently left out of our article with all these powerful officials having one foot in the capitalist pool and the other in that of the u. s. government. it's not hard to imagine why endless war is a very lucrative business decision for some stock returns from 2001 to 2021 for government contracted arms. companies like lockheed martin and northrop grumman totaled more than 1000 percent and wiki leaks, founder and whistleblower julian assange tried to warn the world about it years ago to use wash money out of the way out of the tax base of european africa back into the head of a trend, that is the goal. my goal is to have in local and for some reason the mainstream media doesn't seem to find it necessary to tell their viewers that the experts they invite to inform public opinion on the afghan
6:11 am
war. have a very specific agenda of their own. meanwhile, the scale of america's failure and kind of stands been revealed in 20 declassified documents published by the us national security archive. one shows the extent to which the calamity was consistently and deliberately hidden from the public poly way back in 2002. then defense secretary donald rumsfeld, was worried that the african mission was drifting, but never publicly mentioned it. rather arguing there was no point in negotiating with the remnants of the taliban and more than a decade later, an american diplomat had the same concerns. the 1st question of did we know what we were doing? i think the answer is no. if there was ever a notion of mission creep, it didn't get done. we went from saying that we will get rid of ok. so they can threaten us to say we're going to end the television. then we said that we will get all the truth the tell about works with then further to have in our exit strategy b. s. table government. and again,
6:12 am
it's done. we have to say good enough is good enough. that's why we're there. 15 years later, we spoke to scott ritter, he's a former marine corps intelligence officer and he believes that documents can affirm what was already an open secret. documents may not have been available. ready the information contained in these documents was well known to experts and specialists, and could have been well known to anybody who took the time to do the research. the reality is the united states has not had a co haired afghan policy since from the very beginning. look, defense companies in united states, you're going to profit whether or not, i mean the united states has one of the largest defense budgets in the world. the largest defense budget in the world, $700.00 plus $1000000000.00. and a lot, a good portion of this goes to, you know, the acquisition of weapons and material equipment from defense contractors.
6:13 am
you know, afghan is stand, was an opportunity for specific technologies. and the companies associated with those technologies to come into prominence and there was some money to be made . the surge, vast surgeon, people fleeing off gun astounds, causing a security nightmare. so euro, because among those sling the taliban a convicted criminals in some cases earlier, repatriated, buddy you back to i've got to stand alone with suspects on various of the global security watch lists sub couple of cases in point in the u. k. one africa national on britain's no fly listed make it into the country. the military played. he was declared however, quite quickly, not to be a person of interest and was free to go. but he shows how kind of laxity is in some cases that in france, police arrested one of 5 afghans with a suspected links to the taliban. he'd fail to comply with a stay at home order, in that case, for others are under surveillance. and in germany,
6:14 am
some previously deported afghans with criminal records managed to sneak back in via the hasty evacuation flights. berlin says it's not screening people on the ground in afghanistan, where you begin with the current procedure is a pragmatic one, which means that security checks on the basis of police finding this will only take place in germany and it was deliberately decided that we no longer carry out checks on the spot, but after arrival in germany in a moment. meanwhile, hungary says he won't accept an unrestricted flow of migrants from afghanistan, emphasizing that the government won't let its people suffer from what were described as flawed jail lifted geopolitical decisions by the u. s, leadership, the hungarian state, secretary underlining to that the chaos there probably could have been avoided, which were seen right now in capital in other parts of garrison is frightening. and i think it could bring about an error in migration and international terrorism that
6:15 am
we didn't want and perhaps could have avoided. we talked about it some more with security expert shell shoe bridge. he's a former counterterrorism intelligence officer. he thinks the chaotic situation and cobble could result and even more complications know the near future. some degree the concern is justifies because often you've got a situation where g to the arctic situation on the ground. and we're talking about the ground around. i didn't start the capital airport in some way that is taking place. it means that got together with these problems that are taking place to collect documentation. a lot of problems around the actual nice know fly lists themselves. today, authorities attention many times in the past, for example, in actresses. and there's also the ease with which people can get around. there isn't any case, it's not surprising that some cases have arisen, and i think we can expect more to happen in
6:16 am
a beta. try block refugees and from getting to europe. know poland is planning on building a wall. log is bored with bellows to double the number of troops stations along it to we are dealing with an attack on poland. it is an attempt to trigger a migration crisis. we will not allow the creation of a route for the transfer of migrants via poland to the european union. while so this about well over 2000 asylum seekers from north africa, the middle east of attempted to enter poland via barrows just this month, according to official polish data. neighboring lithuania is also planning its own federation board of all of us to come next year. you countries claim better us has been facilitating a migrant corridor as a form of hybrid warfare for the claimants in retaliation and for sanctions. the block imposed on minsk also recently came on the fire from rights groups over the trapped refugees that are on the border who include women and children. they said to been stuck there for more than
6:17 am
a week. poland is denied demand trees saying that the responsibility of better us a form, a vice chair of the european council on refugees and exiles, keith best told us, was building by these kind of countries as previously proven effective. we remember 2015 hungry built a wall against refugees coming in from serbia. i mean the, these measures which may be particular to better route lithuania is now trying to build a will v you money against better is for the same reasons as, as potent. so it seems to be an endemic problem that people keep on wanting to build walls. sadly, they're not very effective in achieving the objectives, but the originators want the answer is to have an international agreement about how to deal with migration flows that are caused as a result of war or oppression. or. busy change in regime countries coming together,
6:18 am
not trying to so these things individually as countries by building the piece of work, but actually by having a concerted effort, i'm afraid it is one of the massive failures of the european union as an institution. i mean, it's been based upon nimbus. i'm not in my backyard. so every country has to be exclusive in saying is not prepared to take refugees. wrapping up this with another story from afghanistan and we've got some of these are the break the store of enough gun anti taliban fight to send to guantanamo back in 2003 by the us military suspicion of terrorism. well, he spoke to us, he said he was taught shipment of a gave up and off for eventually being fund innocent. he returned to have this done to fight for his country. the ones who did a good to go to go to the roof so much you got to do
6:19 am
something that company will cut that chicago. what i'm going to get to the show this was the right hon body filled out to reveal the finding of the us all about agreement to lay the groundwork for the road ahead toward the last thing piece that afghan, the stand the mcdonald's into those who know that stories going to be on a or not, it's actually our about 10 minutes in fact. want to see more of it. now off the bright us vice president come la harris touches down in vietnam. well,
6:20 am
6:21 am
oh, when i would show the wrong. why don't i just don't the rules. yes to fill out this thing because the after an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves, well, the part we choose to look for common ground in this again, for the sake of combating racism, the museum of archaeology, than in cambridge in the case, to play special plucks next to some sculptures on display there. to explain whether a white move comes in response to an open letter. apparently it was sent him from students and staff criticising museum for the allegedly misleading representation of the ancient world. but a mixed reaction to the letter and what happened after it have you ever wanted by
6:22 am
roman and greek sculptures are white? well, the answer may seem obvious. that's because gifts and the material they're made off is why? that's why camry, teen diversity classic faculty. the question hangs in the air they plan to put up signs next to the white blood the cath explaining why they're not diverse and color the university playing. so the current display gives a misleading impression of the whiteness of the ancient world. the cluster cas collection of the museum of classical archaeology, both from the cas gallery and distributed around the lecture. rooms of the faculty building gives a misleading impression about the whiteness, an absence of diversity from the greek and roman world. but highlighting the diversity of the aged world may come as a challenge, mainly because be the $600.00 piece collection of room and in great cath, it's primarily a depiction of well roman and great. don't be the story history. you know, he's impossible to offend anyone. also we're talking about something from
6:23 am
a made to go. so that doesn't make any difference. what the now is the message by you have to or with the referral, what was the message a bucket to stager? i think it's a great decision. i think any decision to explain previous coaches and justify that decisions is a good one. the most to see sculptures here, applause the costs anyway. then the plaster is white. for formation, open minded people. people will discover things, they turn things. why? if it isn't true representations, maybe it's useful for those who are particularly concerned about that to have a plot suggesting. so i just want to tell you what we're going to do now as part of any you to russia for going to says love robbie. so michelle anders me to austin, counterpart, alexander schellenberg, going to to day trip to vienna, waiting live to it. key topics are expected to include the crisis. i've gone,
6:24 am
astound the north stream to gas pipeline project and collaboration on the coven. 19 pandemic cameras. folks, again, it's translated less, less men here and again, that's the 1st one that's going to come by level of business in 2009, and it's hard to believe that wire itself. so there were a number of father meetings in vienna, but that's it for isn't lang bilateral meeting since 2009 austria and rochester, logan back, and he very long hand changing history and we know russian, russia knows johnson, we have said that our relations recently have been under a lot of stress recently, even del, we have different views. we stand on different scientific theory, but there is still a bridge between us because russia is still part of the european reality in russia . it's our biggest geographical neighborhood. so it's only logical that there are a number of areas where we could calmly cooperate and come with fashion to think
6:25 am
about energy, about climate policies. and alex about zalman talks with the ran. and of course, we should continue cooperating because no country is as reach as large to believe that they don't need neighbors. we shouldn't forget that the european union is your biggest trade partner for russia, so it is important to continue the dialogue between ourselves. so i appreciate a lot our openness on pretentious dial like that. miss fear that allow us to talk about matters where that we look differently upon the stuff that we don't share and opinion upon fan based dogs. they happen at all levels and it's very important for us all such a dialogue that we have and our motto shouldn't be dialogue instead of silent sized be the same deal with your account ration, for example, joined historical nation,
6:26 am
who work on our common history. you, we remember to be that in december of 2017, my visit to saint petersburg part of this business. we build a new way toward the cultural corporation. and of course, it goes without saying that the damage del, how be blow on our economy corporation before i make this in and ask them or not. and it's offered a lot, and i'm very glad that the 1st month these are the import has increased from the russian federation. so the increase was a 13 percent, but it will take a lot of time before the trade turnover will reach the former volumes that we had before the crisis and other topic that is very interesting for us. and to reason that we got to trade defends a lot on terrorism in case of tourism that it took 2 times in the pen. dennis here decreased by 61 percent and hopefully that soon we will be able to welcome gathered
6:27 am
from russia and once again as many gaps as we had before, the damage our by lead a look ties and we shouldn't hide the fact that there are a number of contradictions that we have boss, read the bride member of the european union. so that's why it hurts me that our relation between the european union and the russian federation. our lowest point is a gap between the wet and the ease to have been becoming bigger of the way i see and, and that shouldn't happen. that's not in our best interests. and we have to say that the make ready cried like freedom of speech, paid him up, but lenient. shouldn't be seen as a threat in any country few days ago than if there was the anniversary. all the points ending about like the volley, and he's for roster or the european union is something unacceptable, so we demand his immediate release on the you want the fish dobby,
6:28 am

6:29 am
the wave of silence secret will should help people who leap in their region and we should support. i think a little slant, we shouldn't wake up on the opera. the migration way will reach our board or is it russia or austria the or administered the are sure, once again, i can go. you welcome, you and dana and i'm looking forward to continue our talks today and tomorrow. thank you very much. was with them. i guess by the latest and channel names that extend them suddenly we've alexandra, shall in our, our counterparts we have had very constructive social down 2 talks about a wide range of bilateral in the international matters that are being raised to both of bots and we have stated that this by the machine, but after the me a logical situation, the relations between our countries have been developing on our system. please remember that the federal a chancellor is the best to encourage participated as an honorary gas and st. petersburg internationally cannot make for him and june, and 2 weeks,
