no more than that, only give them up. sure. somebody either. especially in the coven, your living like the theme and of own. but in the 21st century, i the story is the shape of the week the united states ends is 20 military campaign in the gallons of dun leaving the country in the hands of the same terrorist group. they found defeat a generation ago. mister parting acts, retreated, american forces destroyed key equipment, all the helicopters, and there are a lot of them that were abandoned. that was to be the various various electrical blocks, remove the building, a return to power. the taliban and supporters celebrate the us withdrawal with the

groups white flags flown across the country. jo buttons, approval rating thinks the new lows we look at how the us administration is trying to salvage image after the disastrous pull of the british foreign secretary grilled by a piece of his handling of the african crisis. while he was relaxing on the page when cobbled, so when did you hold beach? did you go to court, interested in what he did? what did you go? i made what date, holiday phones. i think your personal transparencies reports and what beach will hold. i use. good evening, thanks for joining us. pull the weekly here announcing this week. so the us military conclude is longest of

a war leaving us gone. this done to the fate of the same terrace group washington over through 20 years ago. the remaining american troops left the country in the dead of nice early on august 31st, which was the deadline day. the taliban, welcome to withdraw with celebratory gunshots and fireworks right after the last us military. i craft had taken off from carville airport for the last, so just disabled, whatever equipment they could switch you can see now one marines video on thursday on t correspondent brown guest. when to see for himself what was left behind in the rush to leaf. these place looks very different to what we arrived to during the evacuation that cleaning the plagues up. there's set 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 they're both walls of it. this tool as

a person that is still being cleaned up, but as i say, there's a lot of work to do these evacuation that the pentagon calls the largest and most complex in he st, left a whole lot of trash behind trash wreckage and they, bree the taliban command that tells us they're destroyed. 95 percent of the equipment, stuff, and systems. they destroyed everything and destroyed cars. airplanes, especially the military for airports, 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, the scene. our 1st stop was the helicopter graveyard, all the helicopters and there are a lot of them that were abandoned at capital airport. they have been sabotaged quite visibly. the was have been cut various various electrical blocks 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 loose the, the don't create the cause such as the on lot. you have yet many of the dogs lives behind by americans. but they weren't locked in crates as we had be led to believe they will let you at the dentist, someone before. the final us troops that take someone had opened all the crates and left them with, with whom online animal activists have 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 teams and our officers called the in charge

of those dogs and to dave, they came to the board and they are trying to collect the docks. and they are trying to 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, stuck collect the dogs, had the move with the activists 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 abandoned during the evacuation. they used these vehicles to block off roads while the evacuation was on the way. this is passport control at capital 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 looted the vending machines. why? that's boredom, perhaps hate. you don't then the 20 year war and leaving a humiliating evacuation without feeling a little bit of st. more i'd get you g couple. i've gotten this dog over in the us. the bodies of soldiers killed in the recent attack on cobb lab, pulled were returned to dover air force base. 13 service members were among 170 people killed in the suicide bombing. the oldest of the soldiers was just 31 among those paying their respects was the u. s. president of the celtic scenes in

afghanistan, the fit joe biden hard in the ratings was only 43 percent of americans approving of his performance. according to a new poll that his worst numbers since he started the job down 6 percent after the kale to withdraw from campbell. so would a p. all campaign allow the administration to win back the hearts and minds voters we've been finding out areas in the last us soldier to leave afghanistan. major general chris donahue of the 2nd and seem to be played on the screen by bradley cooper or chris or jay to pink. it. very nice thing i do know is, is definitely going to be a movie because now the robot of rocket installing has been lost by the u. s. and it's buddies, the real battle we're getting the battle to make it turn the u. s. actually one. well, maybe not one, they're not miracle workers, but make it look, they didn't lose quite so badly. exhibit one is in fact, the aforementioned major general chris donahue. there is no way that this picture

here was there. and if this is payoff, do it and heroic green send out into the well, the media will govern it without question. say stuff like this, the last american soldier to leave afghanistan, us noted to me that the last american troops left can a stand. i mean, come on, you think this is really bizarre, us don't do enough gun, or 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 this long. his case ought to be confused with k pop or special k ordered as strikes for whenever they put on what it might be hard to believe, given the general accuracy for their joints. you still need special forces on the ground, guiding them in just in case the civilians game civilians

were indeed, it's monday us drones strike reportedly killed 10 members of one family. most of them children. pentagon says that the target was a vehicle carrying several suicide bombers from ices, k local splinter group of islamic states who were planning an attack in cobble that happened 3 days after the devastating blast at the airport. the military is confirmed that it carried out the strike saying it resulted, its secondary explosions. central command said he was aware of the reports of civilian casualties and had launched an investigation and it all on to the vast death. tal over the course of a to decade long war that's coming to the devastating cost. i the the

taliban now has more black hawk helicopters than 85 percent of the countries in the world. ah okada and isis k still exist in our growing and gamma stand and eventually they acquire these weapons. oh, the majority of every member behind me is a veteran. we now have americans stuck in afghan as the taliban in charge with mo, more weaponry than they've ever had in the past. and a border that is open. ah,

the humanitarian catastrophe. loons in afghanistan on the half the population need be monetary and system one and 3 don't know where the next meal will come from. the united kingdom and the 2nd largest military presence in afghanistan and the british foreign sector. it's been drilled over some major missteps during the withdrawal shadow dis dusty has the story pair in the heart of rest and that it only feels like a matter of time until the foreign secretary will be given that the incompetence of the nature withdrawal is munitions. but dominic law, fountain, self, undefined. for his disappearing cobble south. he was on holiday. but what exactly did he go detail? he dodged 11 times for the seats of transparency actions. when did you go holiday

will be did you go and holiday interested in? what did they, or what they did you go? i made what date, holiday foreign secretary of state. i think your own personal transparencies reports and what did you hold them? so you can run, but you can't hide in this touch your parents. he blame dorothy intelligence for the speed at which the region was seized by the taliban. although a leak for an office risk assessment showed that the department, the one he himself was in charge of wound stone, was on the brink of collapse. peace talks a stall, and the u. s. nato withdrawal is resulting and rapid taliban advances. this could lead to fall. a city club of security forces tell about return to power, masters placement and significant humanitarian need as a days and weeks go by since the taliban takeover, the foreign secretary full of under more and more scrutiny, even from colleagues and his own party, many of whom have served after nissan and all, kimberly never know more about the country than he does when there's a little time,

a foreign minister way to a 2nd stop. went to bed. i'm not sure how to check if you would like to know. the busiest seems particularly reading because high come us with reason is better stop ranging evacuation of government people through tashkent and it seems to be a route the work spinning effectively from germany. tell her to melissa could ever stop the us from a tracy from africa. he's gone, going a role declining phone calls from counterparts and literally putting you had in the sound won't make the situation old problem disappear on the comments weren't let him forget who is take response to the helpline. and even if it's 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 emails including late emails and requests like that. but let me just explain the situation for you. just purely transparency. we got 3 types of cases. they melting away to get, frankly,

and countries that didn't use 3 different question. question on the surface, this looks like a friend you've planning on an 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 off on neighboring countries of clothes that borders to not to mention the numbers of british national still stuck. 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 100 sounds that it could be $400.00. or it could be 10510115. i'm if i could give you any more precision because 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, talk into the age old man tries a us remains are closest ally of course, so you can follow the us and assuming the act on government could keep the taliban up bay and didn't prepare for the west as every government should. but does this make robert writer and john flores johnson have a leg to stand on. when robs incompetence seems to encapsulate the government's loss of control. as a whole, public person doesn't have to acknowledge 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 the dominant, rob, so behavioral things appointment. i'm just sure that she doesn't know what's going on. this site actually done the best. i mean to, to be a british, but someone gives you 4 days or 5 days to clear out the countries go much chances

can everyone seems 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 to become this now it seems sets out on a spectacular voyage to the north pole, a border russian nuclear icebreaker sites and seems ahead. bright ah ah, join me every thursday on the alex, silent show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politic sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. in the i think what your mind indeed gets up again with

a great decision over the last 30 years. it's, it was the 1st decision which didn't follow the course of the event. and history was an attempt to change the course. and the biggest task or the status is to contradict history is to change the historical part from the national foreign policy. and what actually july them did the the the, the the look back. heavy gunfire has been reported the capital of the west african nation

of guinea military vehicles are also patrolling the city streets according to local medium mutinous, special forces. soldiers arrested the country's president. along with a number of other top ranking officials, the koolaid is reportedly dissolved the government and close the countries borders . authorities claimed the presidential guard managed to fend off the attack. guinea, which has a long history of military case, so violent and rest, folding the presidential election last october with protest as accusing i'll for con, day of you serving is office 3, change the constitution allowing himself to run for the time. now to go up. no way up north and have a look at some mesmerizing frozen landscapes and sunny arctic nights is all correspond and gets on board with some intrepid travellers to the top of the globe

were on board a russian nuclear icebreaker of 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 2 tug boats to pull it out from its moorings. and we're sailing off into the arctic ocean. so for the next 10 days it's going to be ice water, more ice, more water and yeah. humming of the ship's 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, but only russia has empowered by atomic energy because of its size. i guess i keep losing sense of direction around here. so 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, both the gym, basketball court restaurant convention, whole flash disco bar, given a swimming pool filled with salty water. technically you can swim in the arctic ocean without leaving the icebreaker. let step in 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 of how rough it didn't get in the ocean. the room has what look, it even has a humidifier. and it also has a tv, but you've only 2 channels. one. so you have the roots 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 gauge in the window enjoy using our good news. 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 forward at the other 20 miles. it's the rudder as i understand through all through all the more you can effectively cool the ship's wheel, the rudder above 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 shop. and if i turn the rudder or than was, it was just

a new course, the vessel will turn and adjust to a new steady course. and this is what happens on a lower deck. every time the captain adjusts the course. the helm sets the 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 definitely can't admitted the ship. the things added icebreaker, ramsey, i what 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, paving the way forward watching the ship break the arts and push dry and trying to decide is mesmerized. it's weirdly 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 resolution. it's a common misconception that the north pole is the coldest spots on the earth. it's completely false. the north pole is the middle of an ocean. the ocean is a kind of heat storage, as it allows temperature spikes frequently at the north pole is warmer than let's say in tango or mac on or it means the pole of cold does not coincide with an actual geographical walk. on the 3rd day we saw our 1st polar bear was taking 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 attacking 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. isn't there a time even for you?

what a lot of people the ship really missed is good asleep midnight. but look how bright it is. ah, 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 reached 90 degrees north. i was in the middle of the 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,

well we're against the mind blowing. if you want to know what time it is, it's basically whatever you want to play, by the way, brought all the way from the mainland to show you all of the strong arming together and in top or at the bottom just like longitude as we determine time in the blood, at the north, for the south pole, it's all the time zones and none of them are 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 on the north pole after all, and only had 2 people made in here. when on top of the world go it in the

the leg. each magical in this place to me personally, is that you exist within one dimension for the world around the case time with the rhythms of all the people who are close friends relative to scaffolding different parts of the well no less in this way. if you're in one dimension with the law for some time, one could look at how we lived on the right or wrong, please. ah, [000:00:00;00]

ah raska reporting for our teeth from the north pole. ah ah ah ah ah, i

use the me the me ah hello, welcome to want to part for the most for leaving in history for people is a bit like swimming in water for fish. both species are too far side had to comprehend what's immediately in front of them. but recently the scale and the speed of transformations have intensified so much that it's impossible not to notice the change, though the question of what to do about it still remains open. what the charge on this donovan i'm now joined by team of the board,

the program director at the vault di discussion club and also of the recently published book europe, russia, and deliver wealth order. mr. border just had a great to talk to you. thank you very much for your time. i'm sure you would agree with my opening statement that the world is changing fast. but you wrote recently that the consequences of such transformations will be very specific, very individual for each and every country. and that in itself presents one of the hardest problems in foreign affairs today. why is that? what we often do, even though the steve, the relatively similar, institutionalized public organisms are. each of them represents its own unique position in terms of the geo politics, historian, experience, and economics, initial economic possibilities. and these 3 factors there form how the stays
