but just days ago on monday white house press secretary, jim saki responded to reporter's question about americans being stuck in afghanistan, that 1st of all, i think they're responsible. say americans are stranded. they are not. oddly enough . on wednesday, saki had a very different tune. anyone who has an american citizen who they are, who are they are looking to help you out. any of you send them to me directly and i will get it to the right place. we are absolutely committed to this. this is across the government commitment. the white house said around 900000 people were evacuated from cobble over the last 24 hours. a bipartisan group of lawmakers are urging president biden to ignore his august 31st deadline for evacuated american citizens from cobble they. they should be able to continue the mission for as long as it takes reporting for new cues and partial suites r t. that's all we have for is very important. show tay. thank you so much for watching. and like always you can download the portable tv app position on more and continue to watch r t r t. america. as we follow the event
