we have a real problem tens of thousands afghans coming in from kuwait, sometimes just refueling in ramr officials to put them through quickly when there is a lack of information with no documentation they are being told to use a hunch. your own internal mechanism whether or not these individuals should come to the united states. now they are in a terrible position because they will be getting in trouble. congress mandates the criteria the state department should wtake it's time. we all want to welcome refugees. we welcome 1 million every year but there is 100 million people waiting in i line. i am very nervous at the vetting process we 40 same the associated press come forward to say they are fighting individuals who made it to the united states from afghanistan who have child brides with them. kids they have married. how do they get to the state apartment and dhs vetting system? the biden administration has pressured our front-line career officials in germany to speed to the process and use a hunch if you don't have enough documentation that's illegal in congress needs to step in. >>d

and the other one was his extremely strong and categorical statement that the invasion of kuwait will not stand. and i said to myself what a remarkable coincidence that the president would use exactly that phrase, a phrase that connoted war. the president's statement at least made clear that something terrible had happened in new york. it's useful for journalists to know this. when something like this happens, major events, very often, you get more current information from watching television and listening to the press then you will from the intelligence services. so -- and the reason for that is in part because there are so many more journalists and they are all over the place. so we spent the evening at the u.s. embassy in moscow watching television. the next morning, we had a military plane and air traffic had been shut down over the united states. >> let me ask you is the official representative of the pentagon, when there is a crisis like this, the military already had a doomsday scenario out there. when the first american airline hit the first tower, the faa contacted norad, and

some doing just refueling operations from kuwait destined for philadelphia and we are putting air marshalshey land in germany because we just don't trust the vetting process coming into the united states. >> rachel: one thing that doesn't make sense to me is why are they just letting them be relocated in the region? it is cheaper for the american taxpayers are less cultural shock the immigration and refugees. why are they doing that? >> look, that is such a great question. i learned and spent eight years in the human and i learned one thing about refugees. they really don't want to go to a brand-new place where they don't speak the language. where culturally, it is a shock. and they don't have family members. >> rachel: right. >> coming to the united states is sometimes the last place they want to go because they don't know anybody. and it seems counterintuitive, but i can tell you from my experience, many refugees want to go closer to home because many believe if the problems are fixed, they can go back home and they want to. we should allow people in the region and the u.n. should be ste

efforts, partners and allies -- bahrain, denmark, finland, france, germany, georgia, italy kosovo, kuwait, pakistan, spain, and others who have helped transit americans and others to safety. our close coordination with our allies and partners remains critical both on evacuation and relocation, but as we begin to scope our ongoing relationship with the afghan people and with the taliban. in the last few weeks, as you know, secretary blinken has made more than 50 bilateral calls to foreign leaders with both his g7 and nato counterparts. on monday, he convened a virtual ministerial that included canada, france, japan, the u.k., the eu, nato, qatar and turkey, to discuss safe travel out of afghanistan including the reopening of kabul airport. we expect in the coming days and weeks that that intensive effort will continue. deputy secretary sherman has made dozens of calls and convene conversations on a regular basis with deputy foreign minister's and political directors for more than 27 allied governments, sharing updates, information. i have been burning up the phone lines as well, including

george bush had done that in 1991 to when he went to the war in kuwait that was a misunderstanding of their culture. and the 2nd reason, of course, was america support for israel, which had intensified over those years and become more and more one sided. those are the 2 reasons that were given. people just kinda lost track of that in the, in those need to get revenge against hussein, phantom hussein in iraq. and frankly, if you follow the events closely and i did, i knew one of the people who actually was involved in the c. i went over there and led that horseback charges across afghanistan. they worked the see. i actually succeeded in that in that opperation was one of the few times they have succeeded and they drove out the, the time with them and with the warlords and the northern alliance. it was over. the thing was over in december, january of the, of that year. and instead of disengaging at that point and negotiating, we've been in huge amount of troops. and they had nothing to do basically except occupied places where people didn't know they were and what they weren't. they did

reunification of germany, of course, the the gulf war the success of driving the iraqi army out of kuwait. but but when you left office having won the cold war having won the gulf war having brought germany together. what was your expectation for the world order going forward? post cold war well, i really thought that we would i really thought we were on the cusp. of of a new apparent i really did i thought because we had it you pointed out. we not only in the decor we'd ended it peacefully and it showed that antagonists for 40 years could get along and could and could resolve their differences in a way that that would promote freedom and prosperity and liberty for many people around the world. so we were very hopeful one of the big disappointments i think of my life is to see the the return by russia to the same types of things that were going on when russia was the soviet union. we made efforts to bring russia into the west into the organizations of the west and so forth. and they have they evidently didn't work. and so here we are now and and not only the russia. we're here we are now
