things are very much chaotic here. people are still getting used to the taliban, which barely a few months ago was the a, you know, the fringes of the country. and now in charge of the capital, people are desperate because they can't get money out of atm, the bank to shop many, we were many of the banks we were driving by the close data that is promising to get the move and people be able to get money added to pay for their lives, but so far that remains only in promise. so the situation here in capital is certainly very desperate at this top or gas. you have reporting more. russia has begun evacuating people from ca, bullied by the kale stricken international airport or russian air force planes. i'll plan to rescue 500 people, including citizens, all russia, batteries, ukraine, and soft kinda stands for most soviet neighbor to jacob stance us and we buy it and i'm happy that we're going home and always children can do for school. i went to

thank christ for helping us in this situation because it's very difficult now to get to the airport. what we've done. we haven't expected the evacuation to go to this. well, it's been very good. it's usually taken 5 or 6 days to evacuate. we were told yesterday and today will already on the plane because i want to thank precious president and defense minister for taking us out of the dangerous place and bring us the jigs then they fed us too many thanks to them. done me more american troops to have currently the largest presence board airport in mid. what could be the last days of evacuations? from afghanistan, the taliban, which controls practically everything apart from the air. how does say that afghans who gathered there should ny return home and say that they won't be allowed to leave any longer, but also vaccine for the safety of those who stay in the country. so with the
5:06 pm
taliban no longer allowing the evacuation of afghan citizens, the children we see here could actually be among the last to make times of the country american troops to entertain them at the airport while they wait for their flight. that is previous screen, sebastian refugee flow and i still haven't reached their final destination. they've been transferred to us holding sites like just wanting to wait. in the meantime, kimball was mad who kept his office throughout the taliban takeover said that the mass departures up spot to panic, respond in the hysteria that has been created around surrounding the departure of many people from up on the sun. this has created some sort of anxiety among the rest of the population because the country has been at war for 40 years. ironically, know that there is no war. people are trying to leave because they have
5:07 pm
a fears that what might happen in the future, and they're also living in a country that is poor, a lot of unemployment. so this is very good opportunity for some people that even if they were not affected by war, they would like to take this opportunity and go elsewhere. ah, political course for the country is not known yet. that's why people are so anxious and confused, and they're very worried. right now we don't have any government or any course of action. it will depend on the behavior of atalla on how they deal with the liberties of the people, what the freedoms of people need, and have to enjoy their women's issues. girls going to schools administration being handled by professionals watching,
5:08 pm
ah, women's rights are one thing in pictures and advertising's or not, i think. so. the total of 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 sherry. yeah, it's very clear that islamic sharia has certain conditions, certain principles and certain guidelines. now an afghan, a stan 2nd biggest as he can to her. in the say, thought video agency managed to film the taliban, imposing with seized weapons and vehicles. they had been discarded by retreating.
5:09 pm
nato forces early this month, a billions of dollars worth of advance weaponry and heavy has been abandoned in the country by the u. s. and his partners. this video does show a form and nato bass. there is the pentagon rushes to retreat. the u. s. president also says that america is on track to finish its mission. enough can a stand by the end of this month, the top us diplomatic way, but just say the different options are currently being discussed. the tall about have made clear that they have a strong interest in having a functioning airport. we and the rest of the intricate national community certainly have a strong interest in that. primarily for the purpose of making sure that anyone who wants to leave can leave pass the the 31st. and again, with regard to our own potential presence going forward after the 31st. we're looking at a number of options. 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
5:10 pm
its allies by this time because they have the capability, they have plains, they have the airport, they must evacuate all the troops, and those people who are linked to foreigners. despite the patrol being well under way, prominent us politicians am retired, generals are demanding that troops should remain. but it does seem the mainstream outlets. these people are being heard on or ignoring the fact that some do have vested interest in the company's profiting from the war. to spend 2 decades on quarter explains, 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 work with the military. there were a lot of partnerships and ball. this is a national security threat. or these just
5:11 pm
a bunch of overly patriotic americans. it's unlikely you see the taliban victory 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 is a partner at a global private equity firm called k k r,
5:12 pm
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, 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, sand doesn't stay in afghanistan, we will be archived a 3.0. they are working closely with the taliban and they do tend to attack eric and former secretary of state conduct. 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
5:13 pm
needed more time. once again, rice's place on the board of c 3, a i, 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 a ways out of the base of europe. africa, back into the head of a trend that in the goal, my goal is to have in local and for some reason the mainstream
5:14 pm
media doesn't seem to find it necessary to tell their viewers that the experts they invite to inform public opinion on the afghan war. have a very specific agenda of their own. well, the scale of american failure in afghanistan has been revealed in 20 declassified documents published by the u. s. national security archive. one does show the extent to which the calamity was consistently and deliberately hidden from the public back in 2002. then defense secretary donald rumsfeld, is worried that the afghan mission was drifting, but never mentioned publicly. rather arguing there was no point in negotiating with the remnants of the taliban more than a decade later, to 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 is of get this 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 taliban. then we said we will get all the
5:15 pm
truth. the tell about works with then further to have in our exit strategy, be a stable government and again, it's done. we have to say good enough is good enough. that's why we're there 15 years later. well, as we heard back in 2011 junior sons did assert the ultimate goal of the us military campaign in afghanistan was to generate massive profits for american defense companies. we can, each editor in chief told my colleague, call him bright earlier today that the u. documents to vindicate new groups leaks over a decade ago to supported by all the revelations that came out of the documents published by we can use 11 years ago. some of them, of course, went from earlier period ca, documents, diplomatic cables, military documents, you know, all the, the, the truth, the true picture of what was going on. and i'm kind of some 11 years ago. and it
5:16 pm
was somehow didn't register the, the ly continues, and that is the, the most of pricing out there. the, the current events basically is. and the thing clearly mainstream media cars come to record with this. how was it possible for 20 years to maintain the law? what was going on inside the union? a santa also said that the afghan war was being used to launder american and european money. what did he mean by that trillion dollar plus the trillion dollars? probably under estimate did go into us the pocket, the military industrial complex, the, the private contractors like dunkirk who were supposed to be training the police, etc. it was a massive flow of money that went into the wrong pocket. it could only be called corruption on a large scale. on top of that, of course there's a,
5:17 pm
the corruption inside the sun where basically money was used as carol zone to, to pump on the fire. or there were no logs could on the fire just to gasoline being pumped on the fire that does not create a lasting bonfire. everybody knows that a search of people currently fling afghan astonished, creating a security nightmare for europe because among those flame, the taliban are convicted criminals early deported by the u. back to afghanistan, along with suspects on various global security watch list. it's a topic that came up to me and talked earlier on wednesday, between the russian and austrian foreign ministers in vienna. the size grows. buster has the 2nd biggest community of africans in europe, much more than other you states with only sweden having more than us. i think the austria has shown the loss of solidarity with them. now we have many problems within our country. we are not interested in becoming
5:18 pm
a failed states. we also don't want africa understand to become a tara base. we have seen how the americans have enforced their way of living on libya, syria, iraq, and afghanistan. they should mind their own business. i've listed for military campaigns that have resulted in nothing but a surge of terrorism and unprecedented drug trafficking, while illegal migrants flooded into europe following nato's bombing of libya. the main conclusion is rather simple. here don't interfere in and other countries internal affairs and don't use force in violation of the un charter. well, illustrating some of those security concerns in afghan, national on britain's no fly list made it into the country on a military plane. he was declared not to be a person of interest and was free to go in france, police arrested one of 5 afghans with alleged links to the taliban. that suspect had failed to comply with the state home order. the other 4 under surveillance, and in germany some previously reported africans with criminal records, did manage to sneak back in by evacuation flights hungry. meanwhile,
5:19 pm
for its part is emphasized, it won't accept an unrestricted flow of afghan refugees and says to it won't let its people suffer from fraud geo political decisions made by the us angry states sex re added that the chaos in afghanistan probably could have been avoided. what we're seeing right now in capital, in other parts of a garrison is frightening and i think it could bring about an airing migration and international terrorism that we didn't want and perhaps could have avoided. meanwhile, turkey has been reinforcing his border with a ran fairing, an influx of african migrants turkish authorities, risks for expanding the existing concrete board of all, stretch some 240 kilometers by the end of this year. a border area is not covered by the wool being bolstered by the cheese, barbed wire, and also patrols last week. president erd, one more that turkey would not become europe refugee warehouse,
5:20 pm
as it's already home to more than 3 and a half 1000000 syrian refugees. turkish political analyst on him told us that america is trying to pass off its responsibility for the afghan crisis to other nations. this is a worldwide international problem, just because we are the, the nearest physically, the nearest country that the african refugees seek refuge to. doesn't necessarily should mean that we should be the only one dealing with turkey has been housing millions of syrian refugees. now adding more to this, it's really hard to bear with us is undoubtedly the only source of what's going on . and that can stand right now. they've created the best and that now they're trying to avoid the, the, the consequences of that message. they have already started, you know, lifting out people afghans to african countries and they have also in the past week or so have leaked. i'm calling for statements to the media from the back channels
5:21 pm
that the cherokee may, may accept. most of these refugees on behalf of us and the, the turkish, 1st of all, the president, the foreign minister, everybody has said, you know, as totally was a kansas and they had never heard of it that way. from the crisis after the break, we look at how jim chance was chosen successor, has barely a month to win over public support. that is poles put the policy behind the 1st time and well over a decade. that story to come in a couple of the driven by a dreamer shaped by those in

5:24 pm
though, because it's long regard to the island, which is about 160 kilometers east of mainland china, to be a breakaway province and on the sofa and see response to the new china has demanded the way these baster li, begging recall is that an envoy from the professor benjamin came in. shanghai warns us as a long track record though of breaking its promises to allies, if they aren't within its course fear of interest and luthey, i know they did not. who has, who had to the one to provoke china? yes, no boundary dispute with china has economic benefit to china. apparently, did us trying to maximize the use of is less and less strategic partners can use to afford competition with busha by crossing the bottom line issue of china, which is the one china, peaceable to for andrea, we would then need to completely rely on the us and its allies for economic benefit to us wants to have full control of luthey and yet to fulfill its strategic needs.
5:25 pm
we have russia, so we all see that the u. s. trail was almost all the time to sustain long lasting your political influence of countries. so far away, i think area such as pie was to see that the u. s. is not as powerful as one, ford to be able to win a war. what influence your politics far away from the us, the u. s. have failed. so many of these allies mccain you tons of from the support open night for whatever countries not of decor, inches of the us. finally, anglo merkel time is german chancellor is almost up. but if her chosen successor does thing keys inheriting rock solid public support, he might want to avoid the polls in the papers because for the 1st time in 15 years, the dominant coalition party is actually behind speech. oliver explains happy days for the social democrats in germany. they are the top of the opinion balls in the
5:26 pm
country for the 1st time. in 15 years they lead the christy and democratic union, christie and social union. the conservative union block by 23 points to 20 to the greens coming in in 3rd and the most recent polling. it doesn't make good reading for the christian democratic duty when it comes to the opinions or public opinions on who should be the next chancellor. either in not metric, also good reading for the social democrats all i've shown the candidate coming out on top with 30 percent in 2nd place. there is an all in a book on 15, while way back is and lashes to of the christian democratic union. now he's been trying to put out some fires and do some, some face saving. he said that he's the man to look after both the environment and jobs. these criticize the greens in the social democrats for overly politicizing. the climate crisis says you have to factor in social aspects when you said such big goals. and that's also my idea of what lies ahead of us. it's not about making the
5:27 pm
steel industry uncompetitive with more restrictions and having to relocate elsewhere. that will give us a good climate picture, a 6 percent less emissions, but no more jobs. the goal must transform the still industry so that it uses green energy and becomes green itself. and that's what we need in the chemistry industry in the german automobile industry. where the greens in the social democrats say that mister lasha just isn't ambitious enough when it comes to climate issues. there's also been serious criticism heading the way all the conservative union coming into this election with party grandees wondering where it's headed. is burning everyone in the fire trucks. we have to tell the germans what they will get if they vote for the c. d used c s u and the federal elections. after years of the grand coalition, we have to press the bushel reset button for germany. instead,

borders and the blind to emerge . we don't have authority, we go to the back seen the whole world, leads to take action and be ready and not a joke. people are judgment, commoners crisis. we can do better, we should be doing better. everyone is contributing each in their own way. but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenge is paid for the response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we need together in just financial through. i was, i did a little about money laundering person to see different. oh good. this is
