will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk to me ah ah, among the stories that shape the weak, the u. s. ends. it's 20 year, a military campaign in afghanistan, leaving the country and of the same terrorist group. they vowed to defeat a generation ago, those a part of the american forces rubbish, capital international airport, their final refuge, all the helicopters and there are a lot of them that were abandoned the was have been cut various various electrical blocks removed. yeah. the

the tell about their supporters helping, celebrating the us with role with the groups white flags flown across the country. jo biden's approval reading sinks to new lows. we look at how the u. s. administration is trying to salvage image after the disastrous pull out on the british foreign secretary as brill by m. p. 's over his handling of the gun crisis and why he was relaxing on the beach when capital fell. when did you board holiday? what deep speaking gordon didn't what he did say or what i made, what date? holiday separately said, i think your personal trans policy support would be a good holiday. ah . with the top stories from the past 7 days and right up to the moment

developments as well. welcome to the weekly an r t. i'm you know you this week i saw the u. s. military conclude its longest ever war leaving afghanistan to the fates of the same people washington had promised to overthrow 20 years ago. the remaining american troops left the country in the dead of nights early on august 31st, which was the deadline day. to welcome the withdrawal with celebratory gun shelton, fireworks right after the last u. s. military aircraft took off from the cities report, which is not fully under caliban control. have a look at what the americans actually left damage cars, broken glass, barbed wire on piles of rubbish. this is why the airport looked like that day. busy the u. s. military disable whatever equipment they could be for leaving, which you cannot in fact see in long marines video here. what was happening on

thursday, or a senior correspondent, i guess the visited, the capitals are hope these place looks very different to what we arrived to during the evacuation that cleaning the plagues up. there's said enormous amount of work to do what with all the vehicles, all the armament tool, the ammunition that was left behind by us and allied forces as they retreated as above. while there was of this tool as a person that is still being cleaned up. but as i said, there's a lot of work to do these evacuation that the pentagon calls the largest and most complex in history left a whole lot of trash behind trash wreckage. and they, bree the taliban command, that tells us they destroyed 95 percent of the equipment, stuff, and systems. they destroyed everything and destroyed cars. airplanes,

especially the military for us are destroyed 100 percent. we asked to see the airport and once crammed into the back of a pickup truck, we got our wish. it was like a movie set, a disaster scene. our 1st stop was the helicopter graveyard, all the helicopters and there are lots of them that were abandoned at capital airport. they have been sabotaged quite visibly. the wires have been cut various, various electrical blogs removed and smashed, apparently with a sledge hammer. anything the taliban or even afghans could use the americans destroyed. and what they couldn't bring themselves to destroy. they let use the, the gold crate. the cool such a lot. we have yet many of the gods lives behind by american booth, but they weren't locked in crates as we had be led to believe they will let you at

the dentist, someone before the father, us troops had taken someone, had opened all the crates and left them with, with food on line animal activists of mobilized in the thousands. there in the sense that the american troops could have left behind these dogs right there next to the runway. at the mercy of the taliban, the americans live the dogs to get out from the specific places. but our teens or officials called the in charge of the docs. and to dave, they came to the port and they're trying to collect the docks and they are trying to in the facility for them and what they need to give them all we can say that these may be just what the taliban needs. a p r. stunt collect the dogs and the move with the activities and reap the humanitarian glory. alternatively,

they may have enough on their plate. the other interesting thing about the airport is the, the hundreds of armored diplomatic vehicles that have been left here abandon during the evacuation. they used these vehicles to block off roads while the evacuation was on the way. this is passport control at capitol international airport. this is the states that it was left in after the evacuation was complete for some reason, other than destroying or the military vehicles and aircraft that the united states left behind. they also destroyed much of the airport civilian infrastructure, computers, x rays, cameras, even arrival and departure screens. here they saying it was the americans who cut the power cables knocked over the monitors, smashed windows and kicked in doors, even new to the vending machines. why?

perhaps boredom, perhaps hate. you don't end the 20 year war and leave in a humiliating evacuation without feeling a little bit of st. it's more i'd guess d a r g couple. i've gotten this done on the ramifications, of course. go well beyond the countries borders in the us. the bodies of soldiers killed in the capital or port blasts were transferred to dover or force base 13 service members who were among 170 people killed in the suicide bombing. the oldest of the soldiers was just 31 among those paying the respects was the u. s. president joe biden is hitting new rating lowes at home with only 43 percent of americans approving of his performance. according to a national poll, there his worst numbers since he started the job done 6 per cent after the chaotic withdrawal from couple. so what a p r campaign, a lot of the administration to win back the hearts and minds of voters. article

them as timing, right? gives us his take a learned area then the law us soldier to leave afghanistan, major general chris donahue of the 82nd soon to be played on the screen by bradley cooper or chris or jay to thinking you know, i don't think i know is, is definitely going to be a movie because now the battle for us got installing has been lost by the u. s. then it's bodies, the real battle in the battle to make it look like a turn. the u. s. actually one. well, maybe not one. they're not miracle workers. but make it look, they didn't lose client so badly. exhibit one is in fact the aforementioned major general chris donahue. there is no way that this picture here was serendipity payoff through it and heroic green. send it out into the well, the media will globally and without question, say stuff like this, the last american soldier to leave afghanistan on the us in the last american troops left can a stand. i mean,

come on. you think this is really the last us don't do enough? we will not forgive. we will not forget. we will hunt you down to make you pay that angry old uncle joe biden. they're talking about this new. all his long voices came to be confused with k pop or special k ordered asteroids for whenever they put on what it might be hard to believe given their general accuracy for their strikes, you still need special forces on the ground, guiding them in just in case civilians game civilians were indeed hit on monday. you, astro, and strike reportedly killed 10 members of one family. most of them children. the pentagon seems the target was a bomb laden waco carrying several suicide bombers from ices. k, the local affiliate of islamic states who were planning an attack in capital. it

happened 3 days after the devastating last year. the u. s. military house confirmed dante carried out the strike, seeing it resulted in 2nd, re explosions. central command said it's a where of reports civilians were killed and is conducting an investigation. and it all of course out to the vast debt total over the course of a to decade long. the war that's come at a devastating cost. the the taliban now has more black hawk helicopters than 85 percent of the countries in the world. ah,

and isis k still exist in our growing and gamma stand and eventually they acquire these weapons. the majority of every member behind me is a veteran. we now have americans stuck in afghanistan, the taliban in charge, with most more weaponry than they've ever had in the past. and a border that is open ah, humanitarian catastrophe. loons in afghanistan on the half the population need few

monetary and assistance. one and 3 don't know where the next meal will come from. well, the u. k. how the 2nd largest military presence in ghana stone and the british foreign secretary has been grilled over some major missteps during the withdrawal r t. shoddy edwards dusty, half the story here in the heart of rest, and that it only feels like a matter of time until the foreign secretary will be given. the incompetence of the nature which laurel is munitions, the dominant cloth found himself under fire for his disappearing cobble south. he was on holiday, but what exactly did he go? a detail. he dodged 11 times. for the sake of conspiring tv for actions. when did you go holiday will be did you go and holiday tested in? what did they are? what they did? you go? i made what date would you want? holiday foreign secretary who stayed? i think the own personal transparencies important. what the actual holiday and so you can run,

but you can't hide in this touch. your parents who blame dorothy intelligence for the speed at which the region received by the taliban. although a leak foreign office risk assessment showed that the department, the one he himself was in charge of wound up stone was on the brink of collapse. peace talks, a stall, and the u. s. nato withdrawal is resulting in rapid taliban advances that could lead to fall a city club of security forces. taliban returned to power, mass displacement and significant humanitarian need. as a days and weeks go by the taliban takeover, the foreign secretary falls under more and more scrutiny. even from colleagues in his own party, many of whom have served it off, county san, an arguably no, no more about the country than he does. when a foreign minister went to a 2nd, stone went to beck, and i'm not sure i'd have to check if you'd like to know. the busiest seems particularly ready because i come us with recent is better start arranging the

evacuation of german people through tashkent and it seems to be a route that works really effectively from germany. ho minutes. i could stop the us from retreating from dawn. going a roll, declining phone calls from counterpart and literally putting you had in the sound won't make the situation or problem disappear on the comments were let him forget that we take responses, the help line and the email address in your department, not even being opened. so the, the issue as you have a search for the door is that you have a search of email, completing late emails and requests like that. but let me just explain the situation for you. just purely transparency. we got 3 talks of cases. they melting away together, frankly, and countries that didn't you 3 question question on the surface. this looks like a family of planning on, on grunt scale. ok. so he has finally decided to follow his foreign counterpart

lead and head to the region. but it's a bit late now, considering all western forces have left us on a neighboring countries of clothes that borders to not to mention the numbers of british national. phil, how will they guess how or even will they constant numbers remain, but we think that they would be in the low hundreds. why? 100, you mean $110.00 sort of area or do you mean under $3400.00? they will be in the low hundreds, $900.00 sounds that it could be $400.00. or it could be 10510115. i'm if i could give you any more precision cuz i would let me somewhere between 10500. so let me explain. k nationals. so let me explain why it's difficult. and the same grilling dominate, rob hope into the age old man tries a us, remains our closest allies, of course. so you can follow the us and assuming the asked on government could keep

the taliban at bay and didn't prepare for the west. as every government should. but does this make rob a writer and john forest johnson have a leg to stand on when rob incompetent seems to encapsulate the government's loss of control? as a whole, public person doesn't have knowledge and who is supposed to protect the nation. it doesn't make me feel that i can trust politician, my whole opinion of the government is not very high. and as a dominic rob, so behavioral things appalling. i'm just sure that she doesn't know what to be in this site. actually. i paid the best, i mean to, to be the greatest, but someone gives you forward 5 days to clear out the countries don't go much chances and everyone seems to be more more concerned with his own in depression that he is making on the world. well, there's not what, what's going on in the world around him. 16 minutes past 7 pm here in moscow still

ahead on the weekly routine set. so i told a spectacular voyage to the north pole, a board, a russian nuclear icebreaker, and more sites of incredible scenes that had after the break. oh, i i, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, 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, very critical of time. time to sit down and talk i think what your mind indeed gets up against them with

a great decision over the last 30 years it's. it was the 1st decision which did not follow the course of the events in history. what was an attempt to change the course? and the biggest task or the steepness ship is to contradict history, is to change the historical part from the national 4 important, what actually july them did the ah, hello again. heavy gunfire has been reported in the capital of the west african nation of guinea. military vehicles are also patrolling the city streets

according to local media mutinous, special forces, soldiers arrested, the country's president, along with a number of other top ranking officials. the crew leader has reportedly dissolved the government and close old borders. authorities, though, claim the presidential guard, managed to fend off the attack guinea, which has a long history of military coups, so violent on ref, following the presidential election last october. with protesters accusing of con, day of use surfing his office after he changed the constitution, allowing himself to run for a 3rd term. it's time to go north way up north and look at some mesmerizing frozen landscapes and sunny arctic nights. as our correspondent gets on board with some intrepid travellers to the top of the globe were on board a russian nuclear icebreaker bound for the north thought. the ice breakers main job is to guide tankers through rushes, frozen northern seas. but in the summer,

when its downtime the ship carries tours to the north pole, the vessel is large and heavy. it takes to tug boats to pull it out from its moorings and were sailing off into the arctic ocean. so for the next 10 days is going to be ice water, more ice, more water and yeah. humming of the ships, nuclear reactors. the 50 years of victory was launched in 1993 and as the world's 2nd largest nuclear icebreaker. it used to be number one until recently with them the arctic again line which is even bigger and more powerful. other countries also have icebreaker is, but only russia has empowered by atomic energy because of its size. i guess i keep losing sense of direction around here. for instance, right now i'm trying to find my cabin, but i have no idea where it is. i

use the 50 years of victory bose, the gym, basketball court, restaurant convention, whole flash disco bar. given a swimming pool filled with salty, sea water, technically you can swim in the arctic ocean without leaving the icebreaker. let the depth and dark habit, though nothing fancy. why it has everything we need. we've found a couple of big bags in one of the drawers. there were minor rocket and get in the ocean. the room has what look, it even has a humidifier and it also has its tv, but only 2 channels. one shows you the route and one gives you the view from the ship bow. so given the fact that there is no internet and mobile reception whatsoever, this is about all digital entertainment that you will get on board. but you can

always gaze in the window, enjoy using our new now it's time to meet the captain. a tall, handsome man who likes to smoke is bite on the bridge while steering the mighty vessel forward. at the other 20 miles, it's the rudder. as i understand through a move through all the more you can effectively call the ship's wheel, the rudder. and it has automatic steering, which holds the ship's course of course. so this is something like an auto pilot, right? nice axiom of the bill. that's quite an auto pilot. auto pilot is what keeps an aircraft in 3 dimensions. whereas on a ship, it's just to the shops happen. if i turn the rudder than it was, it was just a new course. the vessel will turn and adjust to a new steady cause, and this is what happens on a lower deck every time the captain adjusts the course. the helm sets these large

pistons in motion, which turns the ship left or right. the we were on the bridge interview and the captain and we were lucky enough to side our 1st arctic iceberg. shoot you this back to the day. icebergs aren't 100 percent white. they have these beautiful to wash sheet. they also come in handy for local birds. after 2 days of sailing, we reach friends, joseph land, and uninhibited arctic archipelago which belongs to russia are now the most dangerous part of our journey begins. if something happens, it will take days for someone to come rescue us from now on. we can count only in ourselves and our captain the well, this is what it feels like. the ice breakers allowing for the ice. trembling can't

notate the ship. you might think data icebreaker, ramsey, but it actually rides upon at 1st and then crushes downward with all the might. and that's one. the propellers come into play. they help chop the into small pieces, painting the way forward, watching the ship break the yards and push dry and trying to decide is mesmerized. it's really both calming and intimidating at the same parts of the ship start to cover with ice as we get closer to the north. however, the temperature isn't extreme just under 0 degrees celsius. unlike me, veteran polar explorer who we interviewed on the deck even refused to put his hat on the prison. it's a common misconception that the north pole is the coldest spot on the earth. it's completely false. the north pole is the middle of an ocean. the ocean does it kind

of have storage as it allows temperature spikes frequently at the north pole is warmer than let's say in tango or mac on or beforehand remains. the pole of cold does not coincide with an actual geographical walk. on the 3rd day we saw our 1st polar bear was taken a nap on an ice floor before we woke up the beer gave a grumpy look. walk away and try to fall asleep again. well, don't be full by his adorable look. these are the wild animals that are in order for tech and human. and you see it live in the arctic is no picnic can speed isn't short supply for these animals and a polar bear will go after anything that's moving. if it's there time even for you, what a lot of people the ship really missed is good asleep midnight. but look how bright it is. it's really hard to adjust to the polar day. and a lot of passengers,

including myself, are having a hard time falling asleep. you see the sun rises incense just once per year, which makes time of day and irrelevant concept here. that goes to the time itself, by the way, we'll get to that. but the north pole, on the 5th day, all eyes were on gps coordinates as everyone's waiting to finally reach 90 degrees north l. o, o, o, o, o, o, o, o, o, o, o. from here, every direction you look at south, there is nobody about us. we are literally on top of the world. i don't know. let me say it again. we are on top of the work, so we're getting the mind blowing. if you want to know what time it is, it's basically whatever you like it to me,

want to play by the way, brought all the way from the mainland to show you all of us to try and harming together at the top or at the bottom. just like her as longitude as we can determine time in the blood. so at the north and for now paul, all the time zones and none of them the same, no time, no other people just the down las frozen desert. it was most real experience in my life. well, until this happened in the order in north pole after all, and only had 2 people made in here. when on top of the world, go it in the the job job with the leg. each magical in this place to me personally,

is that you exist within one dimension with the world around the social you in case time with the rhythms of all the people who are close ones friends relative to a catholic, different parts of the world left in this way because if you're in one dimension with nick, you're paying for some time one could look at how we lived on the right or wrong deal with a constant rosco reporting for our teeth from the north pole.

oh i, i i the moon

me on november the $945.00, just a month after the war ended. the u. s. joint chiefs of staff receive report number 3 to 9. select 20 targets to attack in the soviet union with nuclear bombs. the time was right. as the u. s. s, i was devastated by wal united states last about 400000 people at the brits last less than the americans. and the soviet suffered 27000000 deaths. me 27000000. there's an incredible number. i john kennedy has american university commerce and address and 963. he said that.
