ah, ah, ah, let me, i moscow time and headlines this morning. western countries, one of the imminent risk of a terrorist attack in kabul airport and tell their nationals to stay away from the thousands is still amassing the desperate to get out before the looming evacuation deadline. passes. president biden's approval ratings hit a new low,

the veteran's voice there i get, and how the current situations unravel. my fellow veterans that i've seen everyone's lead don't. everyone's upset, not pulling out of just even invading up. santa sam was radius taylor on turkey, accusing the e. u of tell you the country to it's warehouse for refugees as europe trying to plug the micro exodus. ah, welcome to the program you want to international law. re kevin, in from a world you sent to your moscow 1st and this says there's yeah, a lot of these coming from i've got to stand to brief. you on the u. s. u k. destroyer. now all warning that there's a higher risk of a terrorist attack cobble airport. and they've told the citizens to stay away from the area. so i've got to stand fell to the taliban,

thousands of both foreign nationals and afghans alike of the desperately trying to flee the area around the airport. these pictures into us that resembled something of a disaster zone. certainly chaotic, messy, crammed with people sitting there, mich countless bags and suitcases and rubbish. student over the place. after the taliban rejected claims, it was going to stop us guns with international visas from leaving the country that gave some people some hope of maybe getting out even at this last minute. these last few days to senior correspondence in that conflict with the nation reports back for us next about what life is like at the moment. under the new regime. as we were landing, we expected the situation to be desperate. her end is evil, and we certainly weren't disappointed it isn't quite the bad that mooney. and we saw the early days of this evacuation. so the mobs and the hordes crushing each other in a be to get to these crawford to flee the taliban to flee of gather some things are

a much more ordered. now nevertheless, it is still very much desperate. as we said the down from the aircraft we were, we were greeted with with an air field that is listed with the shell casings, bullet casings as well as mt flashback grenades. tear gas, cad. this is the also be news, sleepers shoes, close children's clothes, leave it all over the place. what is the most striking things was also the barbed wire. it is. it is everywhere. i haven't seen bob was laid as high as it was. that is veritable wolves. of barbed wire to keep people away from the field as we were driving out of the field. we had made the 2 meters. when we saw people trying to rush the main gate and the taliban pfizer wildly firing boarding shot even behind his back was a miracle that no one was hurt. there were thousands of p,

literally thousands of people. many of them young, many of them, evidently trying to use the opportunity to get out of i've got to start, but among them, elder people, people with families, children, women, but we're carrying, you know, baby's death desperate to get them out of the country. as of the taliban ease, ease being relentless, very harsh, and keeping people away. as we drove further away from the field though it must be said that they were much more ordered. shops were open business, his we're open, people walking around with with groceries, with, with food, with necessities doing about their lives, work, things are much less desperate. there was traffic, but it wasn't that that was in the early days sort of one way towards the airport. but nevertheless, things are very much chaotic here. people are still getting used to the taliban, which had the barely a few months ago was the a, you know, the fringes of the country. and now in charge of the capital rush has also been

evacuating people from kabul. by the tail stricken international airport for russian air force planes have been taking part in the rescue operation. taking $500.00 so far, including citizens of russia, better rose ukraine. that's kind of stands, former soviet neighbor to g cust. oh, [000:00:00;00] i wish we hadn't expected the evacuation to go to this. well, it's been very good crowded. it's usually taken 5 or 6 days to evacuate. we were told yesterday and today we'll ready on the play.

ah, i want to thank precious president and defense minister for taking us out of the dangerous place and bringing us to jacob. they fed us too many thanks to them. oh, i distribute them we had to they were doing home and children can do for school. i went to say christ helping us in this situation because it's very difficult to get to the airport. mm. well right now, more latest in pages to show the situate on the streets a couple remain. 10, telephone fighters patrolling and vehicles and brother, extensive weaponry. adding to the problems as well as the physical thing of a lack of money, long queues forming outside banks in the hope that it might re open anytime soon. let me close. no cost for $10.00 days ever since the taliban swept to power. so how to make ends meet? well, in the face of adversity,

some citizens taken advantage of the situation basically come to a bit of a livid this vendor, for instance, setting up a shop as it is outside the abandoned us embassy and cobble will snapshot a life phase selling taliban flags. susie bought them to nearby market, putting a little bit of a markup, not much to sell them in to cars passing by that embassy building. the maybe the power shield feeling is can the caching on, as it's not been confirmed, 82000 people have been flown out of afghanistan since evacuation efforts that figure in from the us secretary of state. and although many likely to make it up by the looming august, the 31st deadline, anthony blanket assistant, they will not be forgotten, is no deadline on our work to help any remaining american citizens who decide they want to leave to do so. along with many afghans who has stood by us over these many years, the expectation of the international community is that people who want to leave afghanistan after the u. s. military departs,

should be able to do so. so the tele buttons repeatedly said there won't be any extensions to that evacuation deadline with the us seating control of couple put them in just a matter of days. the fate of those still wanted to get out after that will be in the hands of the militant group. we told us how me could lead diplomats and right believes that while most african people will be pretty much happy to remain in the country, there are reasons that thousands will still want to flee. the great majority of the 38000000 people that live in ghana, stan are not leaving the country. the ones that are primarily are the ones that have worked with the united states government. and then there are some other afghans who saw the opportunity of going to another country. many afghans have left the country because of the lack of employment that actually give enough money to support your family. but the people that have worked with the us government over the last 20 years,

certainly feel that their lives may be in danger because it's all a bond. may take retribution against them. yeah, there's a dust settling in the political side of this is coming out news to the 3 quarters of americans recently polled. now believe afghanistan, but once again become a breeding ground for international terrorists, just like it was 20 years ago. it goes down off reports, next and on what went wrong with the u. s. mission. gaston americans were promised a triumph. a whole generation was raised to the 2. no vows that the mission will be a success. we will win this conflict by the patient accumulation of successes. we will disrupt this mantle and to feed al qaeda while preventing, i've got to stand from again serving as a base for terrorists. but instead of 2 decades on the u. s. finds itself in the middle of an exodus of truly biblical proportions. the american military has

evacuated more than 80000 people in less than 2 weeks. as of gunnison crumbled under the advance of the taliban, the scaled and pace is unprecedented. 80000. yet this still swarms of people besieging the airport and bearing the fact that despite all efforts the u. s . withdrawal is still a catastrophic failure, especially to those who spend months and years thousands of miles away from family and friends trying to build an american dream. amid the sounds of of gaston

ah ah, when i joined the military, i was pretty ideal as i wanted to go out and serve my country right out of high school. i had sent back with my knees and stuff and i kept trying to get into mess . and i finally did, and i wanted to serve my country and the whole lot of men, i'm 35 years old now. it's wildly different now it's you see things they really are and i feel like i feel like the war and i'm gonna send it over so they didn't have to last as long as that we went there to go for those. and then it should have been just that and the worship ended some time in the 2009 drag on the way as the ra schools of veteran organizations apparently seeking to secure

a chat with the commander in chief who so far has remained elusive failing to meet obligations to leave against would not be a national security risk. it would also condemn veterans and survivors of the conflict and have gunnison to lifetime of moral injury. but the bite and administration is taking a stand here. the mission is a success, and that's the hill. they are ready to die on. what you do is you adjust and we've adjusted. and while we are continuing to face genuine challenges, we believe we are making progress. i would say that this is and now on track peter to be the largest air lift and us history. so, and that is bringing american citizens out, it is bring are asking partners out. it is bringing allies out. so no, i would not say that is anything but a success. well, it's not hard to tell how convincing they actually are. job biden's approval ratings plummeted in the wake of this operation. and the majority of americans, well,

they remain unfazed by the supposedly high evacuation figures. and believe biden is not doing enough to help those stuck in taliban ruled of ghana. stan, this is the mitigated do those 2 of epic proportions. there should be a stain on buttons, presidency. i think he's going to have blood on his hands from what they did. another bitter irony allies in the fact that the us invaded afghanistan to get rid of the terrorist threat that was emanating from the country. yet now the hasty evacuation has raised concerns that some people who bought at american plains weren't vetted properly. you know, people are upset with people. i talked to our ag it's completely botched. there is no. ready political will, and there are still americans trap in afghanistan and still haven't been able to get to go. and as far as lessons learned from, i mean other previous words. i mean,

if we haven't learned from vietnam, if we didn't learn from, you know, from iraq in the early, 2, thousands. i mean, we're just going to continue to make the same big mistakes because we're not the ones that are pocketing the mit. and we're just being used for the will of the m i c. and that's and that's what i'd say about that. the 2 decades of america. and i've got to stand wrapped up with a resounding fiasco. and one can only guess how much more time it will take to mitigate whatever fall out it is still to bring. yeah, a lot of it to a we just saw and he goes for pull the army veterans voicing their anger at how the current situations play that we also heard from iraq, war veterans and former marines snipers. sergio could chug in who also believes entering. i've got to start in the 1st place, was a mistake the real failure of this war and up can expand or whatever you want to

call that a conflict was explicitly pointed out in the dentist and papers where a lot of generals basically spoke about the fact that there was no mention, they had no mission, they didn't know what they were doing there and they didn't know what they were going to do in the future anyway. so yes, of course i think, i think not even pulling out of just even invading up dennis was a radio taylor. historically no one has been ever able to conquer a dentist. and so do you think that military us know that child and more able to succeed in iraq, we're going to succeed and i've got to spend that. so that's really finding. so here's how often i've got sounds triggered fees of another refugee crisis with slaying off cons. now looking to find a solid when the u. a neighboring states, but next to peter, all of us been finding out. not everyone is waiting with open arms for these new arrivals. the european union is yet to set any figures for how many african refugees they intend to take in. we'll have been clear, though,

is european leaders saying they have no intention of seeing a repeat of 2015 refugee crisis. we do not want to relieve what we experienced in 2015. it is not the duty of the e u o slovenia to help them pay everyone on the planet who is fleeing. instead of fighting for their homeland fights. like foster has the 2nd biggest community of africans in europe, much more than other you states with only sweden having more than us. now we have many problems within our country. we are not interested in becoming a failed states. the australian chancellor says there's no way more refugees will be arriving here on his watch. people on the streets of vienna though much more mixed in their opinions. i think we should take refuge here because we have space. we have the money, we have everything, no more refugees, we have enough. and if we have the ability to help, why not everyone in europe hesitate, refugees, in fact,

demonstrations in support of doing more to help african refugees being taking place across the u. and in the u. k. the ah, the news like in 2015, 2016, it was germany that took in the lion's share of refugees coming to europe. now the german president is calling for europe to act with compassion to the need, but recognizes that there has to be limit. we cannot take in all the people seeking

a better life for good reasons. but we must grant refuge to those who have the right to protection and asylum under our laws. b, u wants refugees to seek shelter in neighboring countries and has pledged monies to hell plot. but those who decide to try and use the route through up galveston to europe through northern iran and across turkey set to face strong obstacles. ankara has approved the building of another 64 kilometers of border wall to keep refugees out. we want to show the whole world that our board is on possible. our biggest hope is that there is no migrant wave from afghanistan. we need to remind europe in france of this fact in europe, which has become the center of attraction for millions of people cannot stay out of the refugee problem by hostile sewing its borders to protect the safety and well being of its citizens. moreover, with this attitude, europe not only violates international law, but also turns back on humanitarian values. turkey has no duty, a responsibility obligation to the europe,

refugee warehouse and run and pakistan are already home to millions of african refugees, according to the united nations, germany and france. and right here in austria, also hi, you are on the list. notably right down at the bottom though, is the united states switch as of 2020, it only take it in 2000 refugees from afghanistan with the current chaos. the result of the united states is decision to pull out the ship to be called to washington to do more, instead of letting its allies do the heavy lifting, feeder, all of her all the vienna is kind of thing echoed by turkish political listener into believing the u. s. is trying to pass that responsibility for the african crisis on 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 have create the best and that now they're trying to avoid the, the, the consequences of that. they have already started, you know, lifting out people afghans to african countries. and they have also, in the past week or so have leagues, i'm calling for statement to the media from the back channels that the cherokee may, may accept. most of these refugees on behalf of to us and the, the turkish. first of all, the president, the former, this or everybody has said, you know, as totally was a kansas and they had never heard of it. thanks to choose. now, since national for your news, this is a huge choice out there. so me in the team appreciate it. mona, this is a, had meeting the needs of an industry, desperately shore to stuff. but is this a good idea?

prisoners in the u. k. could be put to work under the scheme of labor prices caused by the double whammy of covey. breck said critic, so already as exploitation. what you think is one of the stories we got ahead here on odd t international ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy. even 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, a very critical time. time to sit down and talk

when i would chose the wrong. why don't i just don't the yes to shape out the thing because the after an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves well the parts we choose to look for common ground. well america, crazy friend party gamma stan is over to 20 years, leaving behind quite a map the i get like money from all schools. so prison the u. k. the could be used to avert a major shortage of work in key industries, including road haulage and albatross, for instance, it made should be released on temper licenses with the initiative. i mean to try to

integrate them back into society. the lack of manpower is being blamed at them. i want to both breaks it and the ponder, making it so ready. seeing big gaps appearing on supermarket shelves. the kern shortfall of run $90000.00 heavy goods vehicle drivers, placing unsustainable pressure on retailers and their supply chains. and it's not just the lack of transport. food, food produces in restaurants, a source outside at the sources of manpower with currently about $40000.00 vacancies. according to the association of independent meets, the buyers may processes on the latest sex of the government, if the daily prisoners can fill the gap. right. and we look at corona irish prior to breaks it, we had a large number of a migrant workers based in the country who were to the major party processing sector. we're not just looking at prisoners and prison leaders to

fill the shortage. we're also looking at service personnel through their recruitment agency, given that we've tried to recruit from the case domestic labor force for months, a months and months. and we still have a lot of vacancies. we have to look at other pools of labor that are available. the public response to the idea of prisoners plugging the shortfall of that mix on social media and also on the streets, forced labor is morally wrong. an unpaid job merging animals on the killing reduction line wouldn't be 1st choice for paying them back. oh my, let them use prisoners. you mean you want slaves because that's what you're saying for you. information. under no circumstances can this be allowed to happen? the nightmarish combination of brazenly re slavery criminalizing of protest, and extraordinary hiring could cove it in mid pro setting plans makes this a recipe for dystopian, considering that there is

a lot of jobs out in the market right now that are not taken by, as i can say a lot of people they think that are a bit like, you know, below them. so i feel like there are a lot of opportunities out there. why not to give a chance to people that have already of that time and out there. and can actually do the walk and make their contribution. you have to give them a chance to be reintroduced in the society and not to be put down. and i look at them like nothing. well, where does labor shows taste and things that like starting up the streets and things like that because of the scripts in productive work like him to cope thomas some of the other come i think the national grid as well. they employ release fish business. otherwise, people out of prison family, the job to go to the probably we commit the crime. let me supplies say that the prisoners pay and conditions are the same as regular employees. they also claim inmates or model workforce. they didn't for you again. when released prisoners

under the release from temporary license program eligible for voluntary labor. if successful such a program could set a precedent for the increased use of prison labor. any initiatives that assists prisoners gain employment upon release reinstate themselves back into our communities. is beneficial for society for ex offenders, so we welcome these initiative stuff. give the opportunity for people to change their lives for the, for the benefit of everyone that are oppertunity to serve in prison. again, skills and get them, gainful employment or partner release, which can help them change their lives, benefit society and reduce the overall re offending rate with a 1000000 job. vacancies, 92000 prisoners in the u. k. this sort of workers might say, won't be suggesting it's close to exploitation. certainly a gray area when it comes to using cheap labor from a literally captive audience, a saudi all see in london. let me bring it for a minute as well. it's just more than

a minute. 75 2nd rough as some of the world news is thursday morning celia israeli forces foreign gas rubber bullets on live ammunition at crowds of palestine. protests at the board defense just because of the gaza strip, a number of people injured that we can report that demonstrated with them on to get to remove the blockade. and allow rebuilding the game after the area was counted in that 11 day or so back in may, over the states that hundreds protesting and new york against mandatory cove it vaccination among the personal freedoms. but if many to crying the jobs is experimental, the city's government has mandated that school teachers and stuff must have at least one dose by september. the authorities have also introduced the same requirement for people accessing certain indoor activities, like restaurants and encoded worries in japan activists that confronting tokyo police outside the olympic stadium that were demanding. the government cancels the

paralympic games, which just got on the way to prevent further spread, a coven infection, to surging right now in the country, breaking all time highs. the vol. ready being a set of strong opposition to hosting the long awaited olympic games the earlier this summer. that is just not sure what we're talking about so far this thursday, but so many more very stories were talking about to great conversation points to r, t dot com and socials. check it out if you get a minute. but for now, we are in the team. thank you for watching. and wherever you are around the world of a great day me, ah, ah, ah, ah ah,

ah ah, ah, ah, is the earth still large enough to satisfy the ambitions of jeff bezos? you know, it's got its tentacles in so many aspects of the economy. there's nothing that amazon isn't trying to get into to step by step. the amazon empire has extended its group on the world that walks by conducting quacks like a dog. so amazon looks like monopoly trays like a monopoly makes money like the monopoly behaves like monopoly. amazon essentially controlled the marketplace. it's not really a market as a private arena where a single company controls the distribution of daily products. and the infrastructure of our economy is listed,

according to amazon. ah, the a military mission against dam. we'll conclude on august 31st. we're ending americas longest war one phone. so who did a good to us all the quote unquote, a young girl who will bundle you through so much. you got to bill the southern company, so the cut, the cut over the whatever the month. okay, but i'm going to get a quote to show that this was the right weapon
