we support the reform of the united nations security council where we seek a permanent seat up there. go up. the panoramic has caught everyone by surprise and plan 20. what we do regret all of that took place in brazil and worldwide. but i have always advocated that we should fight if i was, and unemployment at the same time. and with the same sense of responsibility that i've relation in lockdown measures, the left a legacy of inflation, particularly in food stuff all over the world. no, but i feel put up in brazil my view to cater to the needs of the low income population who were forced to stay at home by decisions taken by governors and mayor. people who lost their income. we granted an emergency aid of $800.00 to $68000000.00 people in 2020. now may i call to mind that we came to the end of the 20, the year of the panoramic with more formal jobs than what the case back in december . 2019. thanks to the actions lead by our government. such as, for example, programs to ensure employment conditions and income, which have cost is nearly $40000000000.00 us dollars. this year in the 1s

not only us, but virtually the entire international community, including in the united nations security council resolution has made clear what we expect and will assist from the taliban if they want to seek any legitimacy or any support. and that includes it starts with freedom of travel. so we've been intensely engaged with turkey and cutter to get the airport in capital up and running again, which is now the case. and we started to get flights out last week with american citizens on board. and with regard to missouri sharif, you're correct. there been charter flights.

man leverett, now to talk more about this, she is a former white house national security council and state department official. she joins us live for mclean. virginia, thanks so much for being with us. so what do you think of these files could reveal this? well i'm, i'm not sure to be, to be honest, either either files that are 20 years old in many cases or more than 20 years old. which so interesting and important to understand about files and documents collected and kept by the us government at the time is that they go over to administration of 2 different political parties. some of these files go back to the clinton administration to a democratic administration wanting which i worked. the next set of files go into the bush administration. again, another administration in which i worked for both clinton and bush in their white house and their national security council and both administration made mistakes. some of them are documented in the 911 commission and some are not. some are not matters of national security. some are just matters of embarrassment that would embarrass officia

. >> it was time for the pull national security council to weigh in.hillary clinton was read into the operation. >> how serious was the getting at-this-point? >> i think everyone around that table realized that we were reaching a point where most important decision of the president of the united statesy it to that point of his presidency was about to be made. chris: he briefs president on option of special forces. >> seals and rangers on helicopters, fly for an hour, get off helicopter, put patrol to objective, you lockdown on the target, you call the bad guy out. >> president looks at mccraven, said, bill can you pull this off. >> i said, sir, i don't know, i won't know until i bring seal operators in and helicopter pilots in and we rehearse it and find out whether or not the mission that i briefed you on is feasible. chris: building a compound as similar as possible to one in abbottabad in the neighborhoods of north carolina, and assembling a team navy seals to raid it. chris: how does did you think it was going to be? >> one way, i thought we were n

we are reaching out to the white house, also the national security council.know congressman mccall specifically mentioned about an airport several hours north of kabul, that's where he alleges that americans are essentially being held on planes against their will. this is what he said just a few hours ago on fox news sunday. listen. >> we have six airplanes at sharif airport, six airplanes with american citizens on them as i speak, also with these interpreters and the taliban is holding them hostage for demands right now. the state has cleared these flights and the taliban will not let them leave the airport. >> reporter: again, this is several hours north of kabul on the border, the northern border of the country. meanwhile, fox news national security correspondent jennifer griffin traveled exclusively to ramstein air base in germany yesterday with the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, mark milley, general milley met with evidence ackey -- evacuees and jennifer asked him if we're safer as a country after we left afghanistan. >> this is something i thoug

in fact, just yesterday the united nations security council passed a resolution that sent a clear message that while the international community expect the taliban to deliver on moving forward, notably freedom of travel, freedom to leave. together, we're joined by over 100 countries who are determined to make sure the taliban uphold those commitments. they will include ongoing efforts in afghanistan to reopen the airport, as well as overland routes allowing for continued departure of those who want to leave, and deliver humanitarian assistance to the people of afghanistan. the taliban has made public commitments, broadcast on television and radio across afghanistan, on safe passage for anyone wanting to leave, including those who worked alongside americans. we don't take them by their word alone, but by their actions. and we have leveraged to make sure those commitments are met. let me be clear. leaving august 31 is not due to an arbitrary deadline. it was designed to save american lives. my predecessor, the former president, signed an agreement with the taliban to remove u.s. troops by m

a spokesperson for the us national security council said the taliban had been flexible, businesslike citizens. hundreds of foreign nationals are thought to be stranded in afghanistan since the taliban seized power last month. here's what white house press secratary, jen psaki, said about the taliban's cooperation with the evactuation. we just had a plane landed in qatar that is evidence that we are working to co—ordinate to get american citizens, to get afghan partners and to get legal permanent residents out, and we're hopeful and working to ensure there are additional flights. journalists in afghanistan say they've been beaten, detained and flogged by the taliban when covering protests. you may find some of the pictures distressing. this is nematullah nak—dee and taki dar—yabi. they had been covering a women's protest in kabul on wednesday when they were taken to a police station. they say they were beaten with batons, electrical cables and whips. nematullah told the afp news agency "0ne of the taliban put his foot on my head, crushed my face against the concrete. they kicked me in

that is why i want to set up a national security council to pull all of our information and strengthn foreign policy. we need more europe. we have to speak with one voice. we need to start joint projects including armaments projects so we can act once the u.s. withdrawals of that is a task the next administration will have. brent: when the u.s. withdrawals , he is talking about, how can we act when the u.s. bows out? what do you make of that? >> thinking of afghanistan and the bavarian colleague in the christian social union, he said the problem in afghanistan was quite clearly the haste with which the united states pulled out. he says it is nothing to do with germany and our boon to sverre did a great job. he said nationbuilding in the future what we can try in some places but it will not work everywhere. looking forward to a more military projection in german foreign policy in the medium and long term. there is a real awareness that the geopolitical balance is chngangi. america's interests are changing. germany kind of wants to be part of that discussion. the exact way has not been

national security adviser for iraq and afghanistan. kori schake, the director of foreign and defense policy at the american enterprise substitute, she served on the national security council for president george w. bush, and an msnbc international affairs analyst. thank you all for being with me. general, yesterday's headline was largely the discrepancy between advice officials say they gave the president while at the white house and what the president and the white house claims at the time with both austin and milley claiming they told the president to keep 2,500 troops in afghanistan, even though the president told abc that leaders agreed with his decision to pull out entirely. is this a cause for a concern? >> i agree, there is still lack of clarity on who recommended what by when, but there are two points, i think, that are clarified by yesterday's session before congress. first, there was unanimous agreement that the military chain, beginning with the secretary but then through the chairman and down to the commander general mckenzie were fully consulted. they were at the table, they had a voice, and they felt heard. i think that's very important to take away from yes

i was talking to her deputy, this awesome for time servant in the white house of the national security council, a retired army colonel. he was the one that kind of did the bulk of the interview because she was tied up in any of his educated came into the office. she glanced over and he gave a little head nod edges like okay, when can you join? okay, awesome. >> so i have to ask you this. as the preeminent russians could expert, as somebody who on day one of the security council was there at the day of helsinki, what the heck do you think happened went up and putin were talking? he can't break any security clinch stuff, but just generally speaking. like what is happening in those conversations? >> no. you know, it's interesting, i have frankly a little bit less,, i got less concern than the general public first of all. i won't . the interpreter at the center of this storm that was in the room with his conversation, somebody and you and actually i guess too much before probably about six weeks before she was my translator when we were taking the chairman of the joint chiefs to meet with his russ

the recommendation is probably a national security council meeting. the president may or may not have been there. but in any case, his own staff had the responsibility brief, president biden, on the conduct of those meetings and those recommendations that came from his military and secretary defense. so either president biden was not informed for which. ready some of its people ought to be held responsible for he was inform, misunderstood what the commanders on the ground in the u. s. military was saying, i think we got to stand back and realized. so we bought inside about camera span for 20 years. we went into file, kind of, we defeated all kind of, we brought the lighting to justice, but with this collapse that we're seeing and i can't stand right now. candidly, all of the successes. and all of the effort that we put into afghanistan has now been reversed. the worst possible outcome would be that the taliban allowed al qaeda, isis, k, and other terrorist words to come back into afghanistan and take advantage of uncovered spaces with an afghanistan t

to dose course has been completed onto other news and the permanent members of the united nations security council of met the secretary general antonio could tell us to discuss. afghanistan could tell us, said the international community must engage with the taliban, going forwards. taliban itself has been appealing for quick human recognition as the new rules of african stone. its appointed a new invoice to the un and requested he be allowed to speak at the general assembly of crispin salumi and new york. we've been seeing intense diplomacy at the united nations on the situation in afghanistan. many meetings taking place, including one between foreign ministers of the permanent 5 members of the security council, and the secretary general of the un. antonio gutierrez, the united kingdom chair, that meeting the new foreign minister liz trust said going into it. that her goal was to get china and russia to take an international approach to the situation there. and what the council is weighing is whether or not to recognise the taliban of the united nations. and on the one hand, there's concern about

missile test which did not breach the un security council sanctions, and this short—range ballistic test, which does breach those resolutions by the united nation's us presidents have simply shrugged them off as business as usual. so what is next? what else does pyongyang have in its arsenal that it's been waiting to test? we do know from satellite images that its main nuclear reactor appears to be functioning once again, perhaps as early as march this year. so we do know that they could be producing some material that could be put into nuclear weapons, but how far is pyongyang going to push it at this stage? germany's federal elections take place in just under two weeks. angela merkel is not seeking re—election as chancellor, she's lready stood down as leader of her christian democratic union party. in the run—up to the elections on september 26th, our europe editor katya adler is taking a roadtrip around germany. starting in dusseldorf, in the country's industrial heartland, katya's second stop has taken her to ahrweiler — a spa town devastated byjuly�*s flooding — and she explained how people there are finding it difficult to prepare for the e

can speak now to javed ali, who's a former us national counterterrorism director on the national security councilt day, and had just passed the pentagon 30 minutes before it was attacked. i will come to your personal memories in a moment. the us secretary of state said shortly after 9/11 history start today. he was right, really, in terms of what we have seen in the past 20 years?— of what we have seen in the past 20 years? thank you for havin: past 20 years? thank you for having me — past 20 years? thank you for having me on. _ past 20 years? thank you for having me on. 9/11 _ past 20 years? thank you for having me on. 9/11 was - past 20 years? thank you for having me on. 9/11 was such | past 20 years? thank you for| having me on. 9/11 was such a profoundly moment in not only us history but i would argue in international history and has really shaped the trajectory of the last 20 years in ways that was very difficult to know in those early moments right after 9/11 and i would argue going back to some of the points raised in earlier pieces of your segment, they have been elements of those past 20

have been pressing to see for a generation hillary man leverett, is a former member of the national security council and a former state department official. she says the classified documents may reveal embarrassing mistakes. there is no reason to have kept these files classified, that i knew i, when i was either in the clinton administration or the bush administration. there of course were mistakes in the states and intelligence mistake. and now at the mistakes and judgement. but those, all the american people have a right to see and understand what happened and why, who did what and when there's really no reason to keep them classified. even though in president biden, executive order that he issue today. there is a little bit of a call that he's keeping for himself for the u. s. government to preserve some documents that they say are of such enormous significance to national security. it'll be interesting to see what actually does come out and what is withheld. with 17, the hijackers being from saudi arabia, there has got to be more information there that has not come out. that would be embarrassin

some reaction, the japanese prime minister has summoned an emergency meeting of the national security council. he said the launch threatens regional peace and security speaking about ballistic missile, believe to be fired by north korea earlier today. more on that when we get the last weekend's 911 of her story. how's exposed and enduring divide over the core american values? the terrorists were supposedly targeting another one. the new york professors sparked outrage by calling it an attack on the quote, had true patriarchal capitalistic system that white americans fight to protect are common sparked a fierce backlash with many calling. it was this gun mud, scale up north and reports. $911.00 brought the country together, it was a day of shock and terror and fear and americans clung to each other and was followed by massive public displays of patriotism. after 20 years, the taboo about how to discuss these events seems to be fading. and some rather interesting viewpoints have surfaced on social media. we have to be more honest about what 911 was and what it was, and it was an attack on the h

he's the author of running the world, be inside story of national security council and the architect of american power. previously, he managed the international advisory firm, a former secretary of state, henry kissinger, and now he has his own the rock group. david, it's great to be with you, and thanks for joining us today. this is a somber time, a moment to sort of reflect on 20 years after one of the most major attacks on the american psyche. let's play a clip from president george w bush on what he said right after 911. the attack took place on american soil. but it was an attack on the heart and soul of the civilized world. and the world has come together to fight a new indifferent war the 1st and we hope the only one of the 21st century or against all those who seek to export terror and a war against those governments that support or shelter them. david, that was president bush's launch of the so called global war on terror. and my question to you after 20 years is what has that done to the american psyche and your view? well, i think ultimately it's done a lot of damage. in t

are in charge of reviewing cases and bringing them to the highest levels of the, of the national security council to review review those cases and recommending a release or otherwise. so i definitely will push back on can kind of point that the u. s. does not want to close down one final day. so 1st of all, president obama was making a concerted effort to do so. pointing to envoys of the state and defense departments to do so. but another something that has not been mentioned that that have been part of the difficulty and closing down on cono bay is that's when we decided to release somebody one final day. we have to release them either to their home country or to a 3rd country if their home country wouldn't take them. and in many to in all cases, we have to we have to receive assurances from that country that we were sending them to, that they would not be tortured or detained, or unfairly treated once they got back. and in many cases, we actually were not able to receive those assurances from the home countries. we would start looking for 3rd countries, but it was really difficult to find any c

sanctioned sanctions that are relating to i've gone on in the tunnel bond in the united nations security council. one specific regime wants to try to bond and then the archive regime, which applies to the ta ta bond because of their relationship with al qaeda. and then of course, the government has broadly sanctioned the itala bomb quite a number of years ago, including the taliban as the movement on of this makes it very hot to engage. i have heard of course, and everyone else has some overtures towards russia and china from the top to bottom spokesperson telling them that china is now the most important. i'm sure pakistan was quite amazed. hearing this, given the history of the band with pakistan. but even russia seems to have not really complete confidence in its potential new partners because they conducting one after the other military exercise in central asia at the northern border of i've got some so they had to, i guess there's still some question marks that need to be answered, of course, and this is a huge learning curve, especially in terms of infrastructure as well. not just in terms

the south korean government has called a meeting of its national security council to discuss a response that it often does. join goods is straight after these sort of missile tests that have taken place periodically, but it does come after another missile test. that was a cruise missile, apparently fired by north korea over the weekend, that it's a test fired. and it does seem to be coinciding times for this visit by one d, the foreign minister of china. now, it is a reminder that the, the has a continue to develop its missiles over the many, many years. and with a stalled a stall negotiations, a tech continues to test these missiles and south korea had been hoping, oh, it's still hoping that that china will use its influence over north korea to maybe restart the coasts ations. but they all negotiations that seem less and less likely with each of these provocative miss out launches. it also is a high risk strategy from north korea because of course it, it's risks embarrassing china and windy the foreign minister of china, being the country upon which it relies completely for its surviva
