i'm calling because i want to burn them off. you're just gonna be skill that you do the work for me about the less about me and the extraordinary success in this mission was due to the incredible skill, gravely and selfless. courage is united states military in our diplomats and intelligence professionals. us president joe biden called the mission in afghanistan, a success despite the chaos in bloodshed during the final days of the us military presence. he also claims that american efforts to re make other countries in its image are coming to annette. a foreign powers race to get the last of their people

out of trouble. hundreds of afghans that they once employed to have been left without protection. the former interpreter who worked for the british embassy tells us the u. k. has betrayed its local staff. they will put him in a very good. i had more than my car and britain's top, they will not admit, he does not know exactly the number of your citizens still left enough denison. that as he threw the backlash over his handling of the evacuation mission from the country, ah, broadcasting lives erect from our studios and moscow. this is art international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. right now. the end of an era of remaking other countries. that's how us president joe biden describes the

withdrawals from afghanistan, while claiming that the mission there was a success are to kill them up and has more. while 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 u. s. interest in afghanistan currently is making sure that afghan 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 afghanistan 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 us 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, gravely 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 of the white house and how it's handled things. the recreation 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 than what we have to do to get us citizen and others out of the country. president biden withdrew from afghanistan before the deadline, abandoning 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, antony, 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. now. well, biden slammed the withdrawal deal made by his predecessor donald trump. guests we spoke with take a miss biden's policy as well as the purported goal of the war itself. widened was not found by anything from it. and the evidence of that is all of the other things trump has done that biden has undone as quickly as possible. so whiten 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 background, 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 they are. we also have historical information about nation building, being the excuse for the u. s. military to stay and many, many entries. that is the way the politicians get 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're helping other people. when in fact, there are ways to help other people without us military forces being involved in as gamma. stan is entering a new phase in its history, but under the same old taliban rule, the same regime that was charged 20 years ago. that last u. s. military flight took off from couples airport on monday night bringing america's longest war to an end. huh. and here are members of the telephone inside the airport. some appeared well

equipped in what appears to be u. s. military gear. just a small part of the trophies that garnered from american troops during their hasty retreat, abandoned helicopters can also be seen inside hangers there. after seizing power, the taliban announced a general amnesty enough demonstrated for all citizens, including officials who worked under the previous government, but with reports growing of taliban, the reprisals. anyone with links 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. re had a lot of government because as a powerful government, we never thought of. we will in distribution when we're out, i don't know why did it look like white and without protection without almost one week or more than that. i don't have any shows or i must keep changing

way. my place. we had all the scheme from the bus government and i went to the airport, but we couldn't even because it was there and they were feeding people like thing. i'm thinking i'm going and some of the 1st project with me by a piece but also like, you know, with this being, even though i think i tried many parents call them even then i have to show another when i know what to do, but that they're not getting the response, i lost everything with the hope of the i will, i will buy from and taliban has deployed extra guards around a couple airport. the only air court or out of the country after last week's

bombing, which killed at least $170.00. that blast tore through the crowd, throwing bodies into a nearby open sewer. people had been gathering up the airport for days trying to flee the televisions. that former interpreter again talked to us about the explosion and accused the british government of the training its local staff. from one fame one, can you make it a way you can smell the blood the last minute that i saw by my own eyes, the body i saw there devoid is my wife. i'm going to and you could and couldn't even walk with a lot of what is inside the water. i'm not of was it, don't go on the wall. so i a very good of interest of the in the office that it wouldn't be glued there. there were 40 and so do i did inform the can be i didn't inform you. ok about before the things happen.

but they do that after that the time was too late for it hasn't been raised. i will put them in a very good way. i had been more than mike ever since the 1st day when the from the clear, you know, a, we will not on those people who will be pose will not handing over the government options. but i don't think i may be missing. how's the thought going occupied my house and they were going to tell me all i can do the 9th sort of by monday. i know the like i'm not 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

u. k. nationals are still in afghanistan. he's facing growing anger over the handling of the british evacuation mission and put the number of 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 are difficult cases where it's not clear around the eligibility because they're undocumented, believe us 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 you must consent and raise 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 coppell 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 and i'm going to stand on pakistan, which has led to many people pointing. many thing is of blame. dominant rob for the foreign secretary to go a while 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 canister 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 and 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 while his handling of the crisis and afghanistan has really gone from bad to worse. 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 for 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 u. k. citizens, all u k. nationals, and indeed all of 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 africa installed, but it's 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 this. 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 absolutely 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 the 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. 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 off his handling of this crisis. no doubt it really will be a grilling. indeed that's tomorrow. but many people are really questioning how on the dominic 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 foreign secretaries handling of the i can pull up. i think he should be aware of how many people are left and then try 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. he showed that he doesn't know what we are child actually know the best i mean to to be a british, but someone gives you 4 days or 5 days to clear out a country's got much chances getting everyone out more, more concerned with his own image, depression that he is making on the world world. isn't that what? what's going on in the world around him? if a public doesn't, a public person doesn't have to acknowledge who is supposed to protect the nation. it doesn't make me feel that i can trust politicians. my whole opinion of the

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

or huge risks were chosen to be taken anyway. we asked a former u. k. counterterrorism intelligence officer charles trowbridge, about how to conduct such an operation that made a high risk of a terrorist attack 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 as a tower. because if you do so, of course you just had an initiative to group such as i say, so perhaps even the taliban themselves, you could simply manufacture bomb alerts like that. and therefore, by disrupt the operation. i thought after time, even before the chapter plays, the british appear 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, that discloses the festival. there is a source that is disclosed misconduct information. i'm 2nd,

it gave warning to the attacker. if he's watching the news, which i'm sure he was colleagues, that he was nice. there was information been given that he might, he or she might be on their way as the european union braces for the surgeon refugees from afghanistan, ministers held an emergency meeting to plan how to prevent a repeat of the 2015 migration crisis. with more his art charlotte? well, what seems to be in agreement from the minute is, is that it has to be moved on to protect the external orders from the migration prices happening there. role for 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 appeared to be from this meeting that they leave is the ministers that will to prevent illegal migrants from

coming to europe based on lessons learned. the you and it's 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 deck. well, the issue of dealing with a lot migration is something that you would be rattling since the us started pulling out its troops from afghanistan. it's something that you're really concerned about because what he does, 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, all the huge 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 me things also the thorny issue of resettling migrants and refugees from our chemist on something that you decided

that they still cannot 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. you estimate 2015 that have been around 570000 asylum application just for my on the song. and it says that in february, as soon applications have increased the food cause as that concern. as the fall of the for my son 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 and gone, but we've already heard from pockets on that. it feels as if it's already gone to the brim. i cannot take any more individuals on this idea that your looks to be closing it. who is continuing with fortress. europe is something that is perfect

theory for international human rights organizations, such as amnesty international law. i'm with the international is written to the you . and also if you came to say that if you please concerned about the type of language that you was using when it talks about protecting its borders. but you will see how it says another solution that just dangle characters money in front of the taliban by saying, look, if you cheat to certain conditions, if you protect white women, if you allow girls to school, we will give you money in funding toward humanitarian assistance in the country rebuilding the country, all of it does come with those conditions and the commission is today thing off that press conference, we will have to wait and see if those conditions 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, with the steam of the ultimate, when it comes to admission,

my position is well known. i think that nothing much has changed, especially because austria has done the last already. we have taken in a bigger than proportionate share of people since 2015 per capita. we have the 4th largest afghan community worldwide. and 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 a even larger, greater problem that is learning in afghanistan, the 39000000 people that live the high commissioner for refugees, almost baking european union to keep it open. the u says they are open. but as we've seen from that reinforcement to fences and sorry, isn't your idea that they could be deploy drones and patrols of the board? it dies. know how many people feel? we've had a similar cause to keep food. food is open from the international rescue committee saying 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 telephone to guarantee that it won't retaliate against those who had helped western forces. we spend a lot of money, a lot of time, a lot of life and they've got to make a more rest and place the majority of asked to make them got it or a gamma play problem is been ever you have any tension. then our ration the ring and euro the make the exception to the, to the, our, it and all we had about high have people in your courses again and pull it back today. our stakeholders that we have

to take in 70 and tell him that that and they will know, take relations with day to collaborate with the rest of the course. so desperate my credit, you will need to take it directly to the public government room and get guarantee that they will never prosecute those people re supported the forces that does it for your news. this are, i will be back and let's say 32 minutes with a look at your headline. this is our international stay with us. ah, they have paper. well, they have no bitcoin to fact they shut their bitcoin mining down. nonsense. they

burg, their treasure fleet 500 years ago under the main dynasty, has a country made your bone headed and stupid mistake. psychiatric drugs are essential for millions of patients or are they, they want that pill that they hope will take care of their problem thoroughly and rapidly in the short term, they really work. the problem is in a long term, they're mostly disastrous. suddenly stopping a drug can cause withdrawal symptoms more serious than the condition that was meant to treat instead of the beneficial effects of these different medicines ending up to something wonderful. very often they're harmful effects and up to something terrible can build. so of all ills, or are we trying to mitigate life itself? i just think i was like i was just scared, scared little girl,

the 24. and like i didn't have to be so complicated thing. i don't. i mean it's all work actually was you boy
