un security council has adopted a resolution to let people who want to leave afghanistan do so safely, but it's not known. if a ton of bomb will go along with this, the u. s. hopes, the resolution would protect people's rights, leave the country, no matter the reason, consistent with the right to leave any country including one's own, everybody must be allowed to safely leave afghanistan. for whatever reason, when ever they want, by air or by land. this is the utmost, this is of the utmost importance to us. and the case as the taliban must up whole commitments it's already made to ensure afghanistan doesn't become a breeding grounds on groups. african stone can never again become a safe haven for terrorists. we have condemned unequivocally the attack on cobble airport last week. and we reiterate our condolences and sympathy to the bereaved and to the injured. a coordinated approach will be vital to counter any extremist threat emanating from afghanistan and we called on the taliban to uphold their commitments contained in the doe har agreement. while china and russia both abstained from that un resolution. let's get the reaction out of china now. katrina,

u. s. decision to leave a mistake. that's going to be awkward. the predict thing that the battle scarred nation will, once again become a breeding ground for al qaeda, shuddered was dashed, he's got the latest on that side of it. oh, options on the table that is the latest from the u. k. is defense secretary friend wallace, is he twice to prevent an all out civil war? enough on the stone is the u. k. begins to retreat troops out of the country. now. ever since us taliban peace still. what we've seen is nature. have all begun to retrieve what flashes this power political vacuum in the region, seeing the tale around totally taking control and tipping that balance of power. now not only will a poverty of course increase on political de stabilisation, but what's a key worry is terrorism could also still be on the rise. and that's why you case, defendant secretary is now saying that pulling out of the region is a huge mistake. now we're in this position where we tell us how to manage across the country. the united states are leaving that with an hones

u. s. has reportedly evacuated a 123000 civilians before leaving afghan asked on that is, according to the center. com command of the u. s. federal aviation administration has issued notice to amen warning that cobbled airport is still uncontrolled. and that those air cough that may be coming installed at this time of the night, should use extreme caution. well, let's cross live now to ca, both with this breaking news and join our teeth out guys via my dad. good to see you. it's approximately $11.00 half plus 190 2 in the morning. away you are. now there's a bit of a delay. as i'm speaking to you, it's gonna take about 8 to 10 seconds for you to hear me. what is the situation there on the ground now? well there's, there's a lot of gunfire. these gun fire isn't, it isn't violent their value. there are no clashes and the capital to tell about i celebrating it is everywhere tre, surrounds. you may see them behind me flying into the, into the air in their thousands. the taliban is celebrating victory after 19 years, 10 months and $25.00 days of of the afghan war of the us war. and i've got to s

u. s. a. they have to leave by, by the 31st. and they haven't assaulted the air for they haven't done anything. as far as i know, no diplomatic staffel personal have been harmed. so i mean, if the u. s. made this promise they have to keep the promise. it's that simple. okay, but thanks for your time. again, international 1st year let's met has got to talk to you. thanks for watching. well, anger over the destruction in afghanistan reached american shore to with people pouring onto the streets in protest against the taliban. seizing power rallies broke out. both the east and west coasts, from l. a. to washington, d. c. with demonstrators chanting free afghan, stan and biden, you betrayed us. they also demanded that the white house helps struggling africa and population and comes as politicians across nato member states played to the united states and joe biden, in particular for the form of afghan. this done, donald quarter looks at the mounting angle, 20 years of occupation, more than 2 trillion dollars spent hundreds of thousan

anyway, many of these folks who are criticizing biting has to be said didn't have a plan oliver, for how the u. s. could leave in an orderly manner. and in fact, many of them have long said that they wanted a long term presence without garrison in perpetuity, and that's what biden has on his side. and he's, i said also that if the taliban data tracking troops that, that have to carry out the evacuation the, the response would be swift. you have to imagine that the thinking is it simply would not be able to tell about best interest to hamper or impede the evacuation now because they do not want they want. but how about have one, why would they want to escalate, escalate the situation and cobble now? i mean that presumably is what the administration is banking on. but the problem then comes with the thousands and thousands of afghans who need to be evacuated. and well, actually we saw there was a shelter in place order for the remaining us citizens. it, i've got a son to, to, to, to not move anywhere. how do you evacuate all these people, especially of a little action necessarily in the vicinity of the u. s. em

u. s. decision to leave a mistake predicting that the battle scarred nation will once again become a breeding ground for al qaeda. shoddy edwards dash the has the details on that for options on the table. that is the latest from the u. k. is defense secretary friend wallace, as he tries to prevent an all out civil war in afghanistan is the u. k. begins to retreat troops out of the country now, ever since us taliban p. still. what we've seen is nature that we have all begun to retrieve what flashes this power political vacuum in the region, seeing the taliban totally taking control and tipping that balance of power. now, not only will poverty, of course increase on political destabilization, but what's a key worry is terrorism could also still be on the rise and that's why the u. k. dependent secretary is now saying that pulling out of the region is a huge mistake. now we're in this position where it's out of the house cleaning the manager across the country. united states are leaving that with an honest yesterday we are leaving alongside them. and that leaves a, as you say, a very, very big p

a stan issues. he kind of, as you heard there he is leaving the door open for cooperation with the taliban to a degree. but the u. s. government and blake and myself has said over and over that the u. s. simply does not trust the taliban. they want to see there were their actions more than their words in terms of the number of us citizens are still in afghanistan that want to get out. but we're not able to blink and said that number is less than 200 people. and he said that he expects that the taliban will live up to they're both public and private assurances to us officials that those people will be allowed to leave freely as well as any other afghans that want to as well. but bottom line is the military and diplomatic presence of the u. s. is now completely out of afghanistan for the 1st time in 20 years. and you referred to the pentagon there. we've also had from general frank mckenzie, who over saw that pull out for kennesaw, and he gave us a very frank and detailed statement about what that exactly involves. what were the highlights? yeah, i mean there are several how i mean i think what struck me is that he w

has adopted a resolution urging for the safe passage for people who want to leave afghanistan, but it's not known if a taliban will go along with this. kristin salumi reports now from the u. s. as the u. s. was completing its withdrawal from afghanistan. the security council was voting on a resolution meant as a message for the taliban that the world is watching. one such commitment which the taliban has made publicly and privately, is that those who wish to leave afghanistan will be able to do so. today's resolution signals just how seriously the security council takes that commitment along with the commitments to allow humanitarian aid to flow and prevent terrorism . russia and china expressed concern that afghan, a stan could again become a safe haven for armed groups who could attack other countries. but they abstained from the vote. more perhaps please had more time. the result of the vote would have been different. at the same time, we can see in this an attempt to shift the blame for the failure to collapse after 20 years of the presence of the united states and their allies in the region onto the taliban. and all the countries in the region that will have to deal wi

u. s. departure means leaving them under a future taliban government. public cried al jazeera couple. well, he secretary of state antony blink and says, washington will work with a new afghan government if it serves america's national interest. we engage with a ton of under, in the past few weeks to enable our evacuation operations going forward and engagement with a ton of them and government control will be driven by one thing only or vital national interest. if we can work with a new afghan government in a way that helps secure those interests, including the safe return mark free ridge, the us citizen has been held hostage in the region since early last year. and in a way that brings a greater stability to the country in region and protects the gains for the past few decades. we will do it. but we will not do it on the basis of trust or fate. in other news, the united states has been removed from the european union's list of safe countries as cobra. 19 cases continue to rise to use, recommending a pause and all non essential travel from america daily hospital admissions. in the us,

a coordinated us israel response? where do you think, you know, the u. s. and the u. k. will just really leave this up to up to israel for the time being you know, this doesn't merit a military response by the u. s. or the u. k. you can really hit the iranians, where they hurt by take by, by you, by using this in the economic realm. i mean, that's where iran is. the iranian regime is really vulnerable. a military response here isn't appropriate. actual probably play into iran hands because it would be probably perceived as being disproportionate and out of whack. so look at that, look at the u. s. u. k, to condemn it verbally and perhaps, and perhaps take just their position with regard to the iran nuclear revised iran nuclear deal, which doesn't the prospects of which don't look too good right now. but the name of the game here, john for iran is economics and sanctions relaxations, because eventually i'm going to have to give in iran, if iran does not running regime is not able to deliver economically for its people . yeah, and that's a great point. just real quick on the issue of these attac

hearing about american involvement in the region is we know the, a forces remaining in afghanistan and after the u. s. and u. k. troops leave one look at what's happening. and one sound right now is a ground 0 off american ambition. the failure all the real american policy of the pre formation and democracy creation had failed. but so had the big push in reconciliation with the thought about that they have to legitimize the giving room to the 5000 prisoners from a 100 prisoners that they have given power to. so to say, now they're boxed on is responsible for she's not giving thanks judy, the 3rd one, don't me thank to re bid live in lash whatever rules that apartment the door and they also have access to it. i know it has a state now there are many, many actors and players interested in debility, but i think the sun is in the front line of those. not sure. i'm not child clothes, iran and the taliban, given that iran is taken in around 800000, maybe a 1000000 more than a 1000000 refugees. did nato troops invade the wrong country? i mean, after 911, should they have invaded pakistan because it was packaged somewhere somewhere

u. s embassy. they have on twitter, put out a statement. they say the u. s. embassy urges us citizens to leave. i've got to stop immediately using available commercial flight options. statement goes on, given the security conditions and reduce stuffing. the embassy is ability to assist us citizens, enough kind of stuff is extremely limited, even within carnival strawberry stuff. thank you. james bay, that diplomatic added to the in cobble. james, of course, usually reporting from the united nations in new york, that is where the security council has heard that it cannot stand by. as i've kind of stand things further towards. catastrophe, kristen salumi has this report thing. the country is at a dangerous turning point. the un special representative for afghanistan called on the security council to act and act quickly 1st by demanding an end to taliban attacks against cities to attack urban areas is to knowingly inflict enormous harm and cause massive civilian casualties. nonetheless, the threatening of large urban areas appears to be a strategic decision by the taliban, who have accepted the li

u. s. pleading for more of the general public to get the job. ah, hello and welcome to the programmer with just a week now to go until the deadline to leave cobbles, airport, the u. s. president is insisting that his forces won't be there a moment longer. speaking in the past, our president joe biden said more than 6000 people had been lifted in the past day and his target to complete the mission could be met. but this is caused concern among of the g 70 does, even though the white house position is that they will continue to work together on evacuation. we agreed that we will continue to close our close cooperation to get people out as efficiently and safely as possible. we are currently on a pace to finish by august the 31st, the sooner we can finish the better each day of operations brings at risk to our troops. but the completion barger study 1st depends upon the tale bond continuing to cooperate and allow access to the airport for those who are transfer, we're transporting out no disruption to our operation. in addition, i've asked the pentagon and the state department for contingency plans to adjust the time table. should that become necess

u. s . one that will target a couple positions and say we struck back at isis k before leaving as a stand before the official removal of us troops from afghanistan. the u. s. had already done this, they had already targeted specific locations that they knew of that were strong holds for ice this case because their goal they said was to wipe out and basically kill off the entire existence of ices k before leaving the country. but that didn't work, obviously, obviously it was a failure again of their inability to be able to stamp out an enemy in afghanistan . so it didn't work the 1st time. so, so targeting the couple of spots and, you know, using drop strikes and tackle slots will not in isis k, and this is, again where i, so many people are frustrated with what's happening right now. the president uses to acknowledge any wrong decision here. why in the world have you know, that you waited? i know this is the question that journalist need the answer to. why did you not evacuate all you are, you know, translators, all of your help as well as all the americans. you were there before removing the mi

she hubbard chuncy joe biden attempted to keep public opinion focused on a promise kept up to 20 years. the u. s. was finally leaving galveston. i stand squarely behind my decision. after 20 years, i've learned the hard way that there was never a good time withdraw us forces. but neither the president or any administration official has been able to address the chaotic matter of that withdrawal. despite biden's proclamation that the buck stopped with him, he lashed out both of the africa military and the african political leadership with fled. even saying the u. s. it wanted to evacuate more people earlier, but was stopped by couple. i know there are concerns about why we did not begin evacuating atkins civilians sooner. part of the answer is some of the afghans did not want to leave earlier. still hopeful for their country. important because the afghan government and his supporters discouraged us some organizing a mass exodus to avoid triggering, as they said, a crisis of confidence at the pentagon officials insisted that they had role played every eventuality. they wouldn't be drawn whether that included such a swi

a tie still and hit back hard. so we are into entering this interesting dynamic after the u. s. military finally leaves after 20 years or so that the taliban relationship with i so used to be not so much of a priority, it had other things to concentrate on after the 30. first of all, guess you do get a sense that it will be targeting them. and in doing so, it may well call in the assistance of the united states to if it gets the chance to hit backet, i still, so after 20 years of being adversaries, just imagine that the taliban and the united states targeting isis go figure. thank you very much, robert bride, bring that report from campbell lee authorities in pakistan's capitalism about have ordered all hotels, not to accept gas for the next 3 weeks to make space for thousands of people expected from afghanistan, focused on media. says the government is also expecting foreign diplomats and journalists to arrive security measures outside hotels have been increased. huge numbers of afghans have been crossing into pockets. dawn with many saying they've been, they've given up waiting to be flown out of the

a decade ago. and he was nice presidents. he insisted the u. s. leave afghanistan, no matter the consequences for the guns during a comparison with vietnam, while now he says the mission was never about nation building, competency made 20 years ago suggest otherwise. you just on of explains. it didn't take long for the taliban to fill in. has it power vacuum left after the now infamous us pull out defending that with the rule, president biden pin. the blame on the african government. political leaders of afghanistan were unable to come together for the good of their people. unable to negotiate for the future of their country, when the chips were down, they would never have done so while us troops remained that can stand, bearing the brunt of the fighting for them. americans mission and i've got to stand was never supposed to have be nation building, says president bite and in 2021. the alternative to nation building is k. s. senator biden retorts in some parts administration. nation building is still a dirty phrase. but the alternative to nation buildin
