. >> secretary of state lincoln -- blinken gave an update on the u.s. withdraw from afghanistan. he spoke with reporters for about 30 minutes. sec. blinken: good afternoon. good to see everyone. i would like to give you an update on the ongoing efforts across the state department regarding afghanistan. i'm happy to take your questions after that. earlier this week, a few hours after the military mission in afghanistan ended, and a new diplomatic mission began, i laid out some of the main elements of our plan for this next chapter. here is where we are as of today. our new team in doha is up and running. we are in constant contact with americans who remain in afghanistan and may still wish to leave. we have assigned case management teams to each remaining american citizen who expressed it -- interested in leaving. as you know, starting in march, we sent 19 separate notices to american citizens in afghanistan, encouraging, then urging them to leave. most of the remaining american citizens are dual nationals whose home is afghanistan, and whose extended family lives there. it is no

just 2 days ago, which was attended by foreign ministers in the us, secretary of state and lincoln and secretary blinking did say that the americans were aware of the equation and that they were trying to get people out of ms. archery. now it's unclear at this stage if any of the a vacuum that were on this flight, if any of them were perhaps some of the people that were stranded in missouri sharif or if they are from other parts of afghanistan. but as i said, certainly one can only imagine how relieved they must be to have finally been able to get on this flight. and to have the part a couple right now we are seeing more men, women, and children, as they are walking from the plain. they're a boarding bus and some of them are waving to the camera. it looks as though they are in good spirits and happy to be here. this is a weigh station for them right now. they are feeling a tremendous amount of uncertainty, but they have been reassured before getting on this flight that they will be out here until it becomes clear exactly where they are going to next. and at a time when everything is un

but how many remain and do all of you agree that secretary state lincoln when he made his analysis as to how many people would be here, but would still be there. and you talked about that 10 to 15000 citizens left behind and the and then evacuated some 6000. that would mean a minimum of $4000.00 would be would still be there or no. would anyone disagree with that? by your silence. i assume if you agree, i have no, i don't. i personally don't believe that there are 4000 american citizens. so let them get stand. but i cannot confirm or deny that senator susie secretary said it was probably wrong. it is analysis. they miss german. thank you and just that a racket day chair and the and the vice here slash ranking member have each abided by the 5 minute rule. so there's fair. thank you mister chairman. and thank you, secretary austin, general miller in general mckenzie for being here this morning. and secretary austin and general milly, thank you for your effort to put into some historical perspective what happened in afghanistan, and for recognizing the incredible service and sacrifice of

specifically from secretary of state lincoln, when it came to what sort of recognition the world can give to the taliban government. the can't take a government recently and i asked the taliban seek international legitimacy and support any legitimacy any support will have to be earned. and we've heard that across the board from everyone participating in today's session. we also discussed how we will hold the taliban to their commitments and obligations to let people travel freely to respect their basic rights, including women and minorities, to ensure that can stand is not used as a launching pad for terrorist attacks and not to carry out reprisal violence against those who choose to stay in afghanistan, close sentiments very much shared by foreign minister mars the approach of the german government. in so far as this new can take, her administration in kabul is concerned very much for square behind that of the binds administration. but it is worth making the point that there is a view in germany, certainly among the senior political circles, not just in the social democrats, of whic

mana john june has more now on the diplomatic side of the story, from the before us, secretary of state lincoln, and us defense secretary austin lloyd, actually made it to do how it was made clear to the press that they were not going to be meeting with taliban officials here in doha, throughout the day at various stops, it was also made clear that the us delegation was still engaging in some way with the taller bond. but they did not go into the specifics as to who exactly from the u. s. was engaging with whom from the tyler bond and how exactly that communication was being facilitated. the u. s. many other western governments, the company government, and they have all urged the taller bonds to form an inclusive government one that could lead to recognition by international actors. and it's just not clear at this stage. if this interim government that's been announced is actually going to meet that criteria. there was a lot of pressure on the taller bond to put forth names that would be acceptable to international actors, to international players, so that they could more fully engage with this

i get a hearing though, how the headlines when i was just here a us secretary of state, anthony lincoln is facing a 2nd day of questions of his role in the withdrawal from afghanistan. the senate foreign relations committee, grilled him of a hasty evacuations from cobble and the collapse of the afghan government. we need to look back at all of this. because to your point, we collectively over 20 years invested as coronary amounts in those security forces . and in that government hundreds of billions of dollars.

it is insane i do not know what secretary state lincoln is thinking when he continues this path of talkinge're switching to a diplomatic effort here. kennedy: they have put their black flag and the ground and say we want to eradicate you and israel, that is our objective. we went to shed blood from the west. these are some guys i can really work with it like diplomacy 101, what do you think question but that's what you have to say every morning when you wake up mike baker. >> every morning you look in the mirror, what is happening here will not be surprised. were talking to folks in the uk in diplomatic terms, i believe the bided ministration is doing everything they can to figure how to make that happen as well. i think a part of it is a bit of a political theater. they are trying to salvage the bad press from the clown show that was the withdrawal from afghanistan. think what they are trying to do is, it is a different time. it's not 20 years ago. somehow that's going to make us all forget. kennedy: that is where they want to take the government. they have made no bones about it. they ar

here between high komatt, the german foreign minister and his counterpart from the united states and the lincoln, the secretary of state, that amending offenses warm words about the role of each country. but the point is that here in germany, at least there are many voices who have in high political circles for many different policies, have been critical about the way that the united states government, both under president trump and then under president biden, went about leaving afghanistan. certainly one of the important players in politics is referred to what happened is a disaster. so clearly a form of words had to be found here and there was a loss of agreement between mister consecutive lincoln and the foreign mister high co mass about suddenly about to the composition of this interim. can't take a government announced by the taliban. also about the evacuation procedure that was underway. we heard secretary, blaine can thank the german government for allowing one quarter more than a quarter of only a vacuum to transit through ramstein on their way to their eventual destinations. the clearly
