short form, and this is the way too dangerous for him to be doing. clearly they put him in harm's way. a rural college student does interest get shot in the head and found in a river like that. something else had to be happening with the news. extraordinary success and this mission was due to the incredible skill, bravely and selfless cur, united states, military and our diplomats and intelligence professionals. us a president joe biden called the mission and i've got to stand a success despite the chaos and bloodshed during the final days of us military presence. he also claimed that american efforts to remake other countries in the image are coming to an end a foreign powers race to get the last and there are

people out of couple 100 they once employed, have been left without protection. former interpreter worked for the british embassy tells us that the u. k. has the traded local staff. it hasn't been through . it will put them in a very good rate. i help in more than my compass car and britain's top people that advance, he doesn't know exactly the number of citizens still left in afghanistan. that as he faces a backlash over his handling of the evacuation mission from the country. ah, good testing lab, direct more studios in moscow. this is our to international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. right now,

end of an era of remaking other countries. that's how you, as president joe biden describes the withdrawal from afghanistan, while claiming that the mission there was a success or to get them up and has details. well, the long awaited speech from joe biden was significantly delayed. the press waited quite some time for joe biden to finally come out and deliver his remarks. and now the town of the speech was overwhelmingly a defensive 1. 1 point he shouted about how the united states was facing a choice of leaving or escalating in afghanistan and how he made the choice to leave. interestingly enough, he did go on to then blame the afghan army and donald trump for the setbacks and the problems that have recently taken place. and there was a shift in some of the numbers, rather than saying that it was 6000 us personnel who were evacuated, the number was reduced to 5500. now he talked about how he did not want to make a forever war into a forever exit. and furthermore,

he talked about how the era of the united states using its military to remake countries, had come to an end. now he said the only us interest in afghanistan currently is making sure that afghan, a stan does not become a base for terrorist attacks against the united states. and he said the united states would continue to make sure that afghan stan did not turn into that. and that was really the only interest the united states has in afghanistan. he basically said, as was said by general mackenzie, that the mission was going according to plan. it was comes at a time where we've seen that the withdrawal has at this point, cost $13.00 u. s. service person's lives as well as the lives of $170.00 afghan civilians. now the leaving date was august 31st, and joe biden says that america is reaching its goal. here's what he said. extraordinary success. and this mission was due to the incredible skill, bravely and selfless courage of united states, military and our diplomats and intelligence professionals. now it's also important

to note the context of the speech biden is on the defensive because very much, he has been viewed in a negative light. the situation where the remains of those 13 service personnel who were killed were delivered to the united states. well, family members that were not very happy with how joe biden interacted with them. i said, i swear to god if he checks his watch one more time, i couldn't look at him anymore after that, considering especially the time and why we were there. i found to be the most disrespectful thing i've ever seen. now at this point, we've got a number of republicans stepping up and calling for joe biden to resign, saying that he broke his promise to make sure that every american is brought safely home from afghanistan. but there are also a number of democratic voices that are also harshly critical, the white house and how it's handled things. the creation process appears to have been egregiously mishandled. in order to move forward. we need answers and accountability regarding the cascading failures that lead us to this moment. our

troops deserve nothing less than a complete and unvarnished truth. i think this is the timeline is less important. what do we have to do to get the us citizen and others out of the country? president biden withdrew from afghanistan before the deadline of banding. american citizen, still on the ground, desperately needing evacuation. if biden refuses to resign, he must be impeached. this is an absolute disgrace, joe biden camera harris anthony blank, and lloyd austin and general milly should all resign of face impeachment and removal from office. anger appears to be boiling within the military itself. there are 90 retired generals and admirals who have now stepped forward to demand that general milly, as well as secretary of defense austin, resign in results in response to their actions in afghanistan. joe biden took his opportunity to day to step up and take credit for ending

a more than 20 year long military engagement by the united states and afghanistan. many are looking on at the manner in which the united states withdrew and the human cost and saying that there, this was basically handled pretty badly and that the human losses that took place on all sides could have been avoided. a lot of voices stepping up and saying there was simply a lot of mismanagement here. joe biden took the floor today to defend himself and say that things are going to plan and things are being successful. while biden slammed the withdrawal deal made by his predecessor donald trump, guests we spoke to took aim at biden's policies, as well as the purported goal of the word self widen, was not found by anything from it. and the evidence of that is all the other things trump has done that biden has undone as quickly as possible. so biting doesn't care about anything. the trump did that, that he feels held to be, wasn't held to that fight and started backwards by removing our position of

strength, like closing back run, shrinking our footprint, you half the size of an airport in the city of 4000000 people and then making it impossible to defend that by drawing down the military as he goes until there's not enough people left. it was a disaster waiting to happen, and biden did it all in the wrong order. every death is on him. their blood is on his hands, the only choice he has right now is to claim credit for doing good because that will fool the people who aren't really paying attention. but the whole world knows he did this completely wrong. and in the worst, most inept, bumbling possible way, and i don't see him saving it. there are a lot of politicians and former president should that should have been admitting that we should not have been in afghanistan for 20 years. and that we should have gotten out long, long, long ago. while we know also historically that anytime us forces are on the ground, that increases the amount of terrorist activity in the country. and

a lot of the terrorist activity ends up being killing civilians of that nation as well as trying to go after us forces there. we also have historical information about nation building, being the excuse for the u. s. military to stay and many, many countries, that is the way the politicians, yet the u. s. public to go ahead and say ok, let's leave our military and one more year because we're helping the women. we're helping this, we're hoping that it's okay to go ahead and spend $300000000.00 a day. let's keep them in there because we are helping other people. when in fact, there are ways to help other people without us military forces being involved in i've got to stand is entering a new faith in its history. but under the same old taliban rule, the same regime that was charged 20 years ago. the last us military flight took off from couples airport on monday night, bringing america's longest war to an ent. huh

. and here are the members of the telephone inside the airport and some appear well equipped in what appears to be u. s. military gear. just a small part of the trophies garner from american troops during their hasty retreat . abandoned helicopters can also be seen inside hangers there. after receiving power, the taliban announced a general amnesty in afghanistan for all citizens, including officials who worked under the previous government. but with reports growing of taliban reprisals, anyone with linked to foreign forces may be in danger. we spoke to a former interpreter who worked for the british embassy in cobble during the 20 year campaign. he asked that his name and location be kept secret. we had a lot of government because the government we never thought of, we will in this situation wouldn't be for us. i don't know why they did. why without protection, without any. it's almost when we call that the,

i don't have an issue. i'm a, i'm keep changing way, my place. we had order from him on the bus government and i went to the airport, but we couldn't even touch it because there how can they were feeding people like thing if i'm thinking i'm going and some of the 1st be ridiculous to me by the way. but also with this being able to not i think i tried money, parents call them even then they have to show another when i was but they are not getting the response. i lost everything with the hope of the the i will, i will buy from the taliban has deployed to extra guards around

a couple airport. the only air quarter out of the country after last week bombing, which killed at least $170.00. that blast tore it through a crowd, throwing bodies into a nearby open sewer. people had been gathering at the airport for days, tried to flee the telephone. that former interpreter again talked to us about the explosion and accused the british government of betraying its local staff. from 11 to make the way you can smell the blood of the last minute that i saw by my own eyes. the body i saw there devoid is my way. i'm going to bid and you couldn't, i couldn't even walk. it was a note of what is inside. there was a note on the wall. that's a very good of interest in also that it wouldn't be clued then there was no food in . so do i been informed about this can be i didn't inform

you. ok about it before this happened, but after that the time was too late. it is a bit res. i will put them in a very good way. i had been more than like, ever since the 1st day when the the clear, you know, we will not on those people who will be both not handing over the government options, but i do think babies thought nursing house the thought going occupied my house and they were going to tell me all i can do that trying to sort of buy. but when they deal with the i know the like i'm not on on my car. we didn't know if they help us. we believe that the other one will be most that's why they're not even they're not even talking with british foreign secretary dominic

rob has admitted that he doesn't know exactly how many you k nationals are still in afghanistan. you're facing growing anger over the handling of the british evacuation mission and put the number left behind in the low hundreds during a recent interview. look, of course when we are lament the fact that anyone would be left behind. i know that the number of u. k. nationals, the particular responsibility of the foreign office is now down at a very low level specific, well, low hundreds given that we've taken in total $5000.00 out. and most of those difficult cases where it's not clear around the eligibility of their undocumented, believe it or not dominate ra then went on to say that no other department and the united kingdom has handled the crisis in austin east on any better than the foreign office of course, the very department that he is in charge of now that has rates numerous consent and res, many eyebrows. among many colleagues in the hall of westminster,

of close dominic roles has been long embroiled over the last few weeks in many controversial issues in the handling of the crisis in afghanistan. because of course, when couple fell to the taliban some 2 weeks ago, dominate. rob was nowhere to be seen. in fact, finally seen sunbathing abroad on holiday with his family. but not just that. allegedly, he declined many phone calls. he did not pick up the phone to his counterpart in the stone on pakistan, which has led to many people pointing. many thing is of blame. dominant rob for the foreign secretary to go. a wall during an international crisis of this magnitude is nothing short of a shameful. i think it was amazing, staggering that the foreign secretary was still on holiday. while i scanned the stone was collapsing to the taliban. you've got to be on duty during that sort of period where we're so deeply and intimately involved in it. we haven't heard from the foreign secretary in about a week despite this being the biggest single foreign policy disastrous and suicide

. so i don't know what the foreign office is thinking. well, his handling of the crisis in afghanistan has really gone from bad to was in fact, he's now saying and advising that. anybody that still need to leave ask on a stone, would probably be better off, going to a neighboring country to try and return to safety. here in the united kingdom. however, of course, i easier said than done considering the taliban operating board checkpoints and really is putting a lot of trust in the taliban to uphold that side of the deal. allowing any safe passage to anybody that wishes to leave. it does come. of course, the britain promised that all you case citizens all u. k. nationals. i'm indeed all the, those assisted and the occupation assisted the british army and the occupation of the last 18 years would be able to return to the united kingdom. however, as the weeks and days then passed, many ministers in parliament was saying,

not everybody would be able to get out. and now dominic rob, as we heard, is it missing? he has no idea how many british citizens still remain in afghanistan. but is it actually maintain that the u. k has done a good job and that people should stop attacking the u. k for its own as occupation process. anyone getting back passing briefings either at me or the foreign commonwealth and development office is frankly not credible. and it is deeply responsible. we have absolutely been on this, and you can see we have been on these. why? because we have got 17000 people out. well, it's not just the u. k. citizens that are in need of returning here to the united kingdom, but many, many africans are actually desperate to flee from the taliban takeover as well and have been e mailing the united kingdom, the foreign office trying to get some help. so what we're hearing now is a minister has admitted that emails from schools of people have not only not been

replied to a process, but not even being read by many, many ministers here in westminster. meaning that many people are still stuck in the region and fearing for their lives without any sense that they will ever be able to get out. despite all of this, dominick rob, the foreign secretary is still maintaining that they were real, a tangible gains from the 18 year occupation when colleagues all around him over the past few weeks have even been pushed to the point of floods, of kids in the house of commons saying the absolute opposite to dominic rob. now he will indeed be stopped in a foreign affairs select committee. that's an opportunity for many m p 's to really grill the foreign secretary office handling of this crisis. no doubt it really will be a grilling indeed. that tomorrow, but many people are really questioning how on the dominate, rob is in this position still in this position, a crucial role. but at a critical time,

we asked people in london what they think of the 4 in the secretaries handling of the i can pull up. i think you should be aware of how many people are left and then tried to help those people. well, i mean, they have to come up with the correct amount of how many people are there and why was they, you know, brought back. you've showed that she doesn't know what we actually know the best i mean to, to be a british, but someone gives you 4 days or 5 days to clear out of a country's got much chances getting everyone, however you seem to be more more concerned with his own, in depression that he is making on the world. well, there's a lot more what's going on in the world around him. if a public doesn't, a public person doesn't have knowledge and who is supposed to protect the nation. it doesn't make me feel that i can try a politician. my whole opinion of the government is not very high. and as the

dominant, rob, so behavioral thing is appalling. i'm just a good. meanwhile, dominic rob has slightly deny the claim from us media that britain may have been indirectly responsible for letting a suicide bomber into couple airport last thursday. the pentagon document leads to political magazine suggests american troops kept the airports main gate open despite knowing it was a prime target for terrorists in order to lead british personnel evacuate. but the foreign secretary has said that that allegation is just not true. and another government administer has accused the us of indulging in a blame game. there is an underlying currency blame which is unhelpful. it's a distraction from the main efforts of what is happening on the ground. if the scale of this attack was known beforehand, all gate should have been closed as a matter of protocol, and they went, which suggest saw it, detailed intelligence was missing,

or huge risks were chosen to be taken anyway. we asked former u. k, counter terrorism intelligence officer, charles trowbridge, about how to conduct such an operation in mid a high risk of a terrorist attack. and end of the day. if you've only got one or 2 or 3 days left to carry out your evacuation, it could be argued got, you constantly shut down the operation every time that there's a town. that's because if you do so of course you just had an initiative to group such as an official, perhaps even the taliban themselves. you could simply manufacture bomb alerts like that and therefore, thereby disrupt the operation to act the time even before the capture plays. the british appeared to be the people who actually went public with this, which in a way could undermine any attempts to capture or kill the attacker before he got to the airport. because of course, got disclosed the festival. there is a source that is disclosing this confirmation. i'm 2nd,

it gave warning to the attacker. if he's watching the news, which i'm sure he said he was colleagues, that he was the there was information been given that he might, he or she might be on their way as a european union. braces for a search in refugees for the dentist and ministers held an emergency meeting to plan how to prevent a repeat of the 2015 migration crisis with more. his art is charlie davinsky. well, what seems to be in agreement from you minutes is, is that have to be moved done to protect the external world as from the migration price is happening there. role to discussions about the situation in afghanistan, that the moment on the fact that they could now be a safe haven for terrorists. and also they could be more terrorism as a result of the current situation. but the main focus that appears to be from this meeting that they leave is the ministers that will prevent illegal migrants from

coming to europe based on lessons learned, the e u and its members states stand determined to act jointly to prevent the reoccurrence of uncontrolled large scale, illegal migration movements faced in the past. appropriate security checks should be carried out, including for the full use of relevant e u databases as well as resignation in euro duck. well, the issue of dealing with a large migration is something that you will be rattling since the us started pulling out its troops from afghanistan. it's something that you're really concerned about because wanting. so who will to see is a repeat of what happened back in 2015 when around a 1000000 syrians flooded in europe, causing what many described as being my ration crisis. but since then, there has been a huge amount of work done, particularly on the eastern buddhist o, v u block to reinforce the borders that have

a look now at some of the work that's been undertaken. news, [000:00:00;00] the the the me is also the thorny issue of resettling migrants and refugees from our gamma song. something that you decided

that it still can not agree on. and as a result of back, as a result of being able to give any definitive figures of how many people will be able to come to the you, it will not still be done on a voluntary basis country by country that you estimate in 2015 that have been around 570000 asylum application just for my got the song. and it says that since february, the applications have increased the food, of course, as that concern as the whole of the pool. my sons government was coming now that you want to see, and this is discussed the meeting today, but there is a move on to relocate people on the sun 2 countries nearby in the region. so around the don, but we've already heard from focus on that it feels as if it's all ready for the brim. i cannot take any more individuals on this idea that you look to be closing. it will just continue with the idea of fortress. europe is something that is

provoked to revoke international human rights organizations, such as, i'm the international law. i'm with the international is written to the e. u. and also if you came to say that it deeply concerned about the type of language that you was using when it talks about protecting its borders. but you also how's it says another solution. this is daniel cower has money in front of the taliban by saying, look, if you keep to certain conditions, if you protect the white women, if you allow girls to school, we will give you money and funding towards humanitarian assistance in the country. rebuilding the country, all of facebook does come with those conditions in the you commission is today thing off that press conference, we will have to wait and see if those positions are met. the money will not be forthcoming before they met. despite all of the discussions today, we know that some european countries offer that they also will not be taking any more migrant refugees from amazon. was the steam of the ultimate when it comes to

admission. my position is well, moon. i think that nothing much has changed, especially because austria has done the loss already. we have taken in a big of them, proportionate share of people since 2015 per capita. we have the 4th largest afghan community worldwide. so in that respect, i think austin's is well known here. in the meantime, we're having a warning from the u. n. h, the all that says that there was an even larger great problem that is looming in afghanistan, the 39000000 people that live the high commissioner for refugees, almost banking european union to keep it who does open the u says they are open. but as. * we've seen from that reinforcement defenses and sorry, isn't your idea that they could be deploy drones and patrols on the borders? i know how many people feel. we've had a similar cause to keep food. food is open from the international rescue committee thing that you must not abandon people's chemist on. unfortunately,

that is now how many people feel that they have been already abandoned. we spoke to maximilian crime, a german member of the european parliament who believes the best option would be to get the taliban to guarantee that. it won't for tele, 8 against those who had helped western forces. we spend a lot of money, a lot of time, a lot of life and then got to make a more rest and place the majority to to make them got it. or a gamma play problem is been ever you have any tension than our integration, the ring and urine the make the exception to the, to the our, it and all we had about high have people in your gym and put in a 30 day stay list for a minute,

we have to take him to the house and tell him that and they will know, take relations with day to collaborate with us the course. so desperate my courage with me to take it directly to a th on the government route. and get guarantee that they will never prosecute those people re supported the forces 32 minutes that so i will be back with another full and fresh look at your news. this is our international library with the

the ah me they have paper. well, they have no bitcoin because matter fact they shut their bitcoin mining down, not sense they burg, their treasure of late 500 years ago under the main dynasty as a country made such a boneheaded and stupid mistake the there is nothing more valuable than human life and as the last american soldier boarded the plane to leave afghanistan,

hundreds of americans and those who have aided the us military, lost even more hope celebrations. parade, mach funerals for americans and nato allies were held, and the gunfire was heard throughout the bull. as the taliban not only celebrated their victory but began to inventory all the millions of dollars of equipment which was left behind. and while the vital ministration continues to compliment the taliban and say, the military equipment left was decommissioned and not working, condition, disturbing images and videos of taliban members and gloating and us gear carrying us weapons and flying us helicopters surface. this is, calvin leaders boasted the air filter will now be a base for jihad, for almost. we're going to bring you the latest from the region as well as the truth about the weapons left behind are still capable of. so here in the usa, the f b, i found a recent attack on a police station in dallas, which called
