u. s. and nato presence in the country. they are handing back power to the group that they took power from 20 years ago. what do you make of that? i just, i just think it's devastating and terrible. it's a tragedy for people who were karen, just even recently, the tragedy for the people who are left behind now and that's ganeth them. i have no confidence that the taliban will honor their words of no retribution against those who worked for the former government and jewels who work with the u. s. or other forces there. i think it's going to be a very dark time and i can't say, i think it's very sad, although they didn't have to be this way. i appreciate the vitamins determination and he's not the only president before him. president obama and president trump all wanted to get out of afghanistan, but the way this was done has led to it actually debacle. a lot of people will be looking at this though, not, not just what the u. s. and it's nato partners have done in afghanistan, but they, they will

u. s. and the u. k. a lola lost their lives fighting their for american taxpayers. the war has cost an estimated $1.00 trillion dollars plus. whereas for the u. k, the figure is 40000000000 pounds. we discussed the agreement between the u. s. and the tele bond with international affirm commentator jonathan steele, and extraordinary from side to deal, basically to pull out on conditioning. i'm in the very name of the agreement signed in february 2020 was design, talked about an agreement between the islamic emery to the kindest on which is not recognized by the united states and is known as the taliban. i mean, that's an extraordinary thing. negotiate with a group that richard says he doesn't recognize richard indigenous called terrorist organization. nothing was granted demanded of the tunnel done except to see saw not to attack us troops as they withdraw. and the u. s. also agreed to release 5000 taliban prisoners unilaterally or they rise at the telephone. that's just one of the many issues f

u. s. and the u. k. to dispatch 3600 troops to cobble to help pull out embassy stuff and local interpreters will talk about all of this with rub mcbride, joining us from cobble now 7 30 in the morning. their morning rob take us to the territory, gaines. first of all, it is quite extraordinary since sundown thursday here in afghanistan to what is now daybreak here friday morning. the dynamics in the country seem to have changed once more. do have to say its immediate future, especially given events down in the south of the country and the storming by taliban fighters, right into kandahar itself. this kandahar is afghanistan's 2nd city. it has. it is right down in the hot land of taliban country in the south of the country, a kind of providence and its neighboring province of helmand. because of this is basically become a fortress. it's very important for the government to hold onto that. even though much of the rest of the provinces gradually fallen away to the taliban. the kandahar was heavily defended. i

u. s. and china were in the mid single digit. so it's not really that surprising that now it's recovery balance is also less than that of the u. s. and china, japanese manufacturers are falling behind because they rely heavily on foreign demand. and now with global inflation on commodities enrolled material pricing that is likely going to pressure demand even further. and on top of that, with cove it the slow roll out of its vaccination prod, program, and a series of state emergency measures. they've heard consumption. japan's vaccine rolla is among the slowest for industrialized countries and tourism. that's also a huge part of the japanese economy. but now this industry has been hit very hard by the pandemic, as it keeps foreign investors for investors and visitors away. and you have to take a look at, you know, they had this gigantic tourist event in the olympics where they didn't allow any spectators to come. so that had to yeah, i mean, we're considering how much they definitely had to spe

u. s and u. k. through this wealthy mining and exploration adventure to put some pressure on china and its massive mining and raw materials market. greenland has been the subject of discussion among america's political and financial elite in the past. in 2019, then president trump even floated the idea of the u. s. buying greenland because of its abundant natural resources and idea that ultimately floated away and sunk like a glacier. whether or not this 1000000000 are blitz turns greenland icy water and polar caps, blue like cobalt and green, like the color of money being invested in the venture remains to be seen. the markets are mostly up for the week as we see a whole host of new economic data related to g, d, p, and inflation. we start in russia where the mo, x is in the green rushes economy grew in the 2nd quarter, and it's fast paced in the year 2000 up 10.3 percent compared to the same period last year, according to official data released friday. russian oil, giant ra snapped reported 2nd qua

u. s. and it's ongoing withdrawal from afghanistan. you may remember just a few months ago, world leaders met for the annual g 7 summit. and the 2 countries talked about the most were china and russia and how to contain and limit their influence. now the g 7 is still talking about china and russia. however, this discussions around how to include the 2 countries in an attempt to contain afghanistan, days before the u. s. is set to reach its deadline for its withdrawal from the country. but will the us go along with the plan? that remains one of the biggest questions as vice president harris to or se asia, and make comments like this one about beijing. in the south china sea, we know that beijing continuance to coerce to intimidate and to make claims to the vast majority of the south china sea. these unlawful claims have been rejected by the 2016 arbitron tribunal decision. and beijing actions continued to undermine the rules based order and threaten the sovereignty of nations. joining me now, this gas is billed moscow, her fan investigat

u. s. and i bring up the point about the weapons because we just did the exact same thing and up dennis and left behind. unbelievable amounts of us military equipment, massive amounts of weaponry and guns black hawk helicopters from these. we left it all there the same way that we did in iraq. so we could be creating a very similar problem. what we saw 20142015 with the other isis i. c. k is far from being the only faction able to carry out such attacks. not the warning from the african national resistance front, which controls the punchy of valley, an area now state as the center of the anti taliban opposition. it's far to fetch relations chief believes that the terror threat of the country right now is even stronger than it was 20 years ago. it could be isis cable. we think there are, there are other elements plan the attacks and that might have perpetrated such attacks against us soldiers and was a terrorist attack on the watch of the taliban. a group that says we are able to provide securit

u. s. isn't the only big capital market out there and that there are risks to listing in the us. the u. s. used to be the de facto market to i p o on given its global reach and investor participation, they're kind of sending the message that there are other places to raise capital, not just the u. s. and it's capital markets are no longer what they used to be. and also, while there's a certain paranoid aspect to it by citing these security concerns over listing in the us, it's also pointing out to other countries that hey, if you list your tech, darlene, here in the us, they might look under hood and demand that you release all the sense of data you collect on us citizens over to them and this term sensitive. it's just completely arbitrary. they can say anything is sensitive and or to lay claim on it. the us capital market was the gold standard because it once represented a free market. and now it doesn't seem to be the case anymore because what happened to china could very well happen to any other country that gets on the u. s. is bad side. the u. s. threatened to de la chinese companie

u. s. and allied forces have flown out more than 88000 people from have gone on since the taliban takeover. but some foreign troops have already started to leave as the operation enters its final phase. charlotte bellows reports from couple count donna is on as the us and foreign forces. now i only have until tuesday to get out. and with that means the end of evacuation, like from here outside the airport, there is people rush, see if they can get on a flight. we understand your with and the telephone have a deal that the telephone are only about to make people from the area who have torn past pieces. and you have paper was that did i was going to have and i'm here without documents because a lot of people that went to the us on evacuation flights were civilians. so i thought if civilians are going and i served in the army, i should be eligible to go to got to got an offer on the thought of everybody's going. so i'm going to my house that won't leave me alone. my wife says get down there. why a

u. s. and the taliban. but before i do, let me ask you about the president because he spoke a short while ago biden's saying that the attack will not deter the us. and what else did he have to say about the events of the past few hours? yeah, it was clear that joe biden felt that he must speak out publicly to the american people and to the broader world, quite frankly, after this very dark day here and know it in us history, quite frankly. and it's only getting worse. so i want to bring you latest information that just came in. the death toll has risen to 13, the number of us service personnel that were killed by the attack. it was 12, but the department of defense just confirming in the last few minutes that one of the wounded soldiers has died from their injuries. so now the death toll at 13 in his speech, if you will, or his press conference, joe biden was very clear that this attack would not deter the united states from completing its mission. a mission that the administration says will go on until augu

and let's not forget tick tock. the u. s. tried to force it to sell itself over to an american company, which essentially is legal theft, a chinese i p. and now it looks like the future battle ground of tech will lie within use their data, which is a valuable commodity and something which foreign companies will not want to turn over to the u. s. yeah, it really is interesting to see how china is responding to the policies we've seen from the u. s. over the last few years. now another story that came up this week was the fact that the chinese government is also moving to regulate the algorithms used by tech companies like fight, dance, and tens, that whole thing. now, of course, china is known for having strict controls that band. the majority of social media sites we use here in the u. s. so what kind of an impact is this restriction on individual algorithms expected to have? well, i think it's a huge, over step by the government to try to regulate the algorithms of private company. essentially what they're saying is, hey, you

u. s. and u. k. are continuing their evacuation flights until that august 31st deadline to withdraw all foreign troops. but germany, denmark, belgium, and canada have now ended verifications, and france says its last plane will leave on friday. charles traffic reports now from campbell. you will not be lindsey's rush through the streets to collect the wounded bodies are lifted on to stretches. the 2 attacks by suicide bombers happened close to the abbey gate entrance of cobble airport. the baron hotel. now he was a sudden explosion. we climbed out and saw that there were many people effective people were held everywhere, their brains with scattered. there were also foreign forces who were fallen. i saw at least 4 or 500 people there. the explosion was really powerful, half held into the water, others on the ground outside. we carried the wounded here on stretches and my clothes completely bloody. i know the power hotel is controlled by the u. k and they 2 forces. it is one of the places where tens of

u. s. and the taliban to potentially co operate on tackling a common foe in the region. change. yeah. it's the evolving, we're seeing, we're seeing some movements in that direction. you're seeing for example, telephone talking to iran talking to in recent months and, and there. and you have the russians working with tele, bond and china, it, they're seeking that international recognition. but you gotta keep in mind that tele bond is not a cohesive unit. they have the splinter groups. and if you know, one local commander doesn't like what the leadership is doing, they're going to go up and, and do their own thing. and this is what the problem is. and as i said, to have the, the deputy of all of taliban to be a member of the county network, they are the most ruthless they, they've been killing americans for years. and connie is very much associated in their id ology, but with, with isis k. so this is and, but what we are seeing in the is the northern alliance begin to reemerge now. and the questi

u. s. and china continue. i do the tit for tat accusations between the world's 2 largest economies. vice president harris made her latest stop in vietnam on her south east asian tour, where she called for a movement to put pressure on beijing to quote challenges bowling and excessive maritime claims in the south trying to see and response. a spoke 1st and for china is foreign ministry argued the u. s. isn't even a part of the un convention is referencing, and that it's track record speaks for itself. a ball heating the u. s. has returns to join the united nations convention on the law of the session so far, but claims to uphold the convention. maybe us has recklessly intervened militarily in afghanistan, iraq, and syria, but claims to be bending the interests for the small countries. so i think it would be much more credible if it said that it was offending the you. every legend, enablement and its own interests. meanwhile, trying to deliver the shipment of 200000 vaccines to vietnam the day be

u. s. and the u. k. are urging their citizens to get out of afghanistan as the latest taliban offensive in the country sees the terror group making sweeping territorial gains after a series of rapid advances in rural areas. over the past several weeks, the insurgents are now targeting big cities with the key northern town of couldn't do lives, becoming the 3rd provincial capital seized in the last 3 days. now the taliban has taken the governor's office and police headquarters under its control with battles still going on in some parts of that city. according to reports, 14 people were killed including women and children, and more than 30 people were injured. there are scenes of destruction and conduce with buildings in ruins or set of lights. meanwhile, at least 700 former taliban fighters were released after the group captured another regional capital called sure bergen in the north of the country on saturday. that's despite us bombers being sent to the country to strike taliban positions. the

u. s. and broad. but is a shocking about face for users who rely on the companies, leadership and privacy and security. and just following on the theme, we discuss the issue and its wider ramifications with a number of guest. what kind of algorithm are they going to use? that is able to scan billions of images and then segregate something that is not, let's say, a bear skin rug photo or some form of accept. i don't know what except the bowl nudity is. but something that is innocent, something that is not in any way nefarious. how is it going to be able to determine what is and isn't appropriate? they'll be looking for, according to reports i've seen, known and already classified and sex abuse images and which is like and that database and how those algorithms are used to search computers. and such like apple is refused to open the front back door to the encryption following cases of, of terrorism, thus murder, rapes, kid not being what happened suddenly with this particular cause. yes, it is a good cau

u. s. and this is no telling staff to shelter in place. was this part of the taliban farm? look at it too premature to say something like that. i think we should expected to d today. the relationship of the u. s. and the taliban. it's not been a great relationship, but there has been in relationship due to the february 2020 us an agreement struck . and i think, you know, with the, with the taliban had been taken the country in this fashion. having embarrassed president biden. and his administration there will be, you know, density ahead in this, in this relationship the u. s. government would want to punish the taliban for what they have done in some ways, while at the same time time to ensure that the country stabilizes which is which is a off. and so for that reason, i think we should expect the taliban to, to push back at least politically. and i think you know, the line resorting to violence against the u. s. in the next few days. can't be ruled out. ok, great. so get your thoughts on your

u. s. and germany was meant to address concerns from countries like ukraine and poland, which said they stand to lose billions of dollars in gas transit fees when they're bypass with the new pipeline. even so you cranium, president vilicki said he still views nordstrom too, as a dangerous weapon. yes, so what about the north korean to question i consider this, i consider that not to notice that it is a dangerous weapon. are not only for you frame, but also for the whole of europe. i consider that it seems to me, it is wrong, not to notice that it is a weapon, which a crane will not definitely talk about seem to as an economic issue. that's why i think so dangerous that even now when the north stream to its unfinished, we can see who controls gas prices in europe. almost. the deal with the u. s. also forces germany to agree to impose sanctions against russia. if washington determines that moscow is in fact, using energy as a weapon, german chancellor merkel pointed to this part of the agreement

u. s. and it's help. and, you know, on one hand, we have biden's saying that china and russia would want nothing more than the then for the u. s. to keep feeling billions of dollars into a war they can't win. but on the other hand, the more hawkish members of his administration are already warning about. like you mentioned, china and russia having even more influence on the region and working with the country. so even with the u. s. appearing to back down. now, are we likely to see a change in policy anytime soon? i don't think so. i think the policies that are in place by the united states have been a failure now for years and they weren't changed. finally, mister biden understood, as mister trump did before him, that this was hopeless, and they should get out. they didn't prepare it very well, they didn't executed very well. they didn't do much of anything over there really very well. and that tells you more about the long term problems of the united states than it's going to tell you much ab

u. s. and other western nations happening warning then nationals about the threat of a terror attack, advising them all to avoid the airport. and the witness who we spoke to says afghans have been left to fend for themselves. the floors we feel abandoned, that's because all these people, those who are trying to get in there for they are having some documents that they can go. but the other people like actually doesn't have anything. all you have to do and the media is in the news store, lots of them doesn't have any legal documents that they are trying to get out. there are like more than 20000 if you have to. but right now, this thing is all messed up automated up. i don't know why the americans are not processing then anymore. but lots of people just like us are striking and hearing. and i know everyone is trying, you know, just to get out of this country of this situation and run from taliban. so yes, we left abandoned. we are left behind. we just want, you know, to get out of this country a

. embassy and u. s. military, but retaliation and retribution seems to be a part of african culture. tragically. what role and what influence do you think us will have over gonna sounds future in the short term and, and obviously in, in the years to come go. i think it can have a definite impact but not a military impact. i hope that there are relations. so that the people of afghanistan, afghanistan can benefit from the huge amount of international aid that the u. s. does pass for other countries and things like health and education that the u. s. has already contributed to and has a made subsist substantial gains primarily in the urban areas. but hopefully the taller bond will let education in the rule areas continue and not just religious education, but civic education. and certainly with coal would we hope that they will be reaching out to the international community for assistance in colbert alleviation. i'd like to get your take on this as a all me veteran. many of the us veterans who serve in the

u. s. and other western nations had been warning that nationals about the threat of a severe terror attack and advising them to avoid the airport. we spoke to ali hasanti who was near the apple when the fast explosion occurred to dave into the airport of cover. i was standing and if it was near to the get you and they used to. so it's very close to us like 5 minutes away. i just saw there was like 4 to 5 minutes. they had us and they had told when there was looking look dash the c p will renew the duration problem, the difference of them, the type of this type of goods we're waiting. we're looking, we're suspicious. they didn't have guns. what they was looking for the airport, they was looking to be use troops, they will let 100 of them when they get back to the line, i was with the people like after 12 or 2 minutes. an explosion happened on the weekend. it was near it was near to the lake 1st things away. an accident happened . didn't go on 1st started year after the used to the called the peo

it's demonstrates to complete and total bankruptcy of the u. s. foreign policy and defense, which just like the vietnam war did ending in 1975. i want to ask you, among the us people, do you, how do you think that this will pay out? how do you think it's going to be received? i mean, well, look, biden, and who's the biden good should already taken that into account. they've repeatedly said that they don't really think the american people are going to care very much about stan polls. and i think they figured they can write this out. the problem is that it's far from over. you know, we'll have, shoot 6000 us troops or at the campbell air for airfield, a 1000 diplomats thousands more americans. they're all sitting ducks here. so anything could go wrong. and this could get far worse before it gets better. talking about peace talks, that would be a way out. they are ongoing in doha. do you think that mediators have lost any leverage that they once had given the sort of clean sweep that the top buttons made of the last 345 days? well right now, it seem

u. s. and the u. k. a telling all of us citizens, anyone in afghanistan just to get out. and as late as taliban offensive grips the country, it seeing the terror group making sweeping territorial gains. in fact, after a series of rapid advances in rural areas in the last weeks, the insurgents and now targeting big cities for exam, couldn't do it right here. the north, northeast part of ghana on the 3rd provincial capital seized in just the last 3 days. the taliban has taken the governor's office and the police headquarters battle is still ongoing in some parts of that city. according to reports, at least 14 people killed, including women and children, more than 30 others injured. there are scenes of total destruction and condos with buildings in ruin or ablaze. in the meantime, at least $700.00 former taliban fighters have basically been released off the group captured another regional capital. this one right here, ship it a gun in the northern central part of the border here, northern afghanistan. this happened all on saturday. and it's despite us, foremost, i should say,

u. s. and as you mentioned earlier in the reporting, our supply chains are worldwide, especially for things like semiconductors, which cross water several hundreds of times before even landing as a final product out it's final destination. so in this very globalized world, inflation in one area will affect other countries and supply chain disruptions and inflation on commodities. that's going to affect things worldwide. and that's going to be everything from consumer goods and household stables all the way up through high tech. and even if, even if the fed manages to rate and inflation in the u. s, which is a very big if, because he hasn't even given any specifics on how he plans to tackle inflation. considering that, according to him, it's no big deal. then you also have to worry about inflation and other countries such as china, where the u. s. has actually exported a lot of their inflation onto in china because essentially the u. s. has the buying goods from china for the good part of the la

u. s. and foreign forces to my left to the taliban fighter from butter 313 task force, which is assigned to secured the airports parameters. behind me are the us forces. yes. this bar wire is separating the us forces deployed inside the airport and taliban fighters. the us troops are currently organizing the evacuation of the withdrawing forces. in addition, there are also sorting out the afghan citizens holding visa to foreign countries, or those who are working with the us forces over the past years. and over there, at the top of the screen, you can see afghan citizens standing in a single file. they were brought in here a while ago and shuttle buses in a pre coordinated process, closer to us or the u. s. and foreign troops who are overseeing the process that building is the main departure terminal of the airport through which the foreign forces and eligible f kenny evacuees are expected to leave. over the past hour, we have heard a plane taking off roughly every 15 minutes. those planes are

u. s. and other western nations have been warning their nationals about the threat of a severe terrorist attack happening, advising them to avoid the airport. we spoke to ali hassan who was near the airport when the 1st explosion occurred to dave into the airport of cobbled i was in standing. and if it was near to the get you and they used to sort of like 5 minutes away, i just saw there was like 4 to 5 minutes they had and they had to run. there was looking look dash, the c p will renew the duration problem. the difference of the type of the type of glued to the waiting. guess we're looking, we're suspicious. they didn't have guns. what they was looking for the airport. they was looking to be used troops. i will 100 them i. when they get back to the line, i was with the people like after 12 or 2 minutes an explosion happened when it came . it was near. it was near to the lead 1st and away and didn't happen. then i got started year after the used through the call, the people that stay away, sta

u. s. from and the u. k. charlie angela there with all the latest reaction from your 4th from london. thank you, charlie. well, meanwhile, as we've been saying, the pentagon spokesman and the u. s. has twisted, we can confirm that the explosion at the abbey gate was the result of a complex attack that resulted in the number of u. s. and civilian casualties. we can also confirm at least one other explosion at or near the baron hotel. a short distance from abbey gate will continue to update, and we've now also had reaction to this attack in kabul from nato secretary general installs. and back you will see tweeted and said, i strongly condemn the heretic terrorist attack outside couple airport. my thought so with all those effected on their loved ones, priority remains to evacuate as many people to safety as quickly as possible. well, speaking of evacuation that speak to charlotte bellis in cobble, she's been spending a lot of time outside to couple airport. charlotte, glad to see that you are safe. can you talk us through what the situation looks like? they're on the ground now at the ai

u. s. and u. k. are dispatching more than 3 and a half 1000 troops to cobble to help with the evacuation of embassy staff and others. let's speak now to rob mcbride, who is live in cobble force. so rob 1st will tell us more about those operations in kandahar and laska go. that's right. from the government's point of view this friday morning, a quickly deteriorating situation with the apparent loss of both candor and alaska. now these are the 2 most important cities in the south kandahar in particular. being based in kandahar province is really almost like a fortress while much of kandahar province was being taken back by the taliban. the government has been committed to defending at all costs. kandahar had some of the better military units there was able to call and asked support to in fact, including us as strikes as a way of trying to keep the taliban at bay. but it seems that overnight said that they breached the defenses of the city. we got increasing reports about fighting in the center of the ci

u. s. and elsewhere identifying that it was actually 9 members of one family, including 6 children that were killed al jazeera, still working to independently verify that information, nevertheless, still sent. com responding and saying they're aware of it. they're continued to investigate. okay, many thanks for that update. gabriel. and as on down in washington, hurricane ida has made land fall along the gulf coast as a powerful category for storm. hundreds of thousands of people in the u. s. taking shelter authorities a warning of an extremely dangerous storm, such as well as catastrophic winds. it is predicted to be the strongest hurricane to hit the region since the 18 fifty's. the storm is threatening new orleans, 16 years to the day since it was devastated by hurricane katrina, killing more than 1800 people. the most important thing i can say right now is that everyone, everyone should listen to the instructions from local and state officials. just how dangerous this is to take it seriousl

u. s. for mandatory vaccinations? yes, and this is what so interesting. speaking of going all the way to the u. s. supreme court states have the legal and constitutional authority to require that people who live in that state be vaccinated or to introduce the vaccine mandate. and this goes back to a case dating in 190005. had to do with smallpox. that comes from a case in massachusetts jacobson versus massachusetts. there was actually a smallpox outbreak in cambridge and cambridge introduced an ordinance that required all adults to be vaccinated or re vaccinated against smallpox or face a $5.00 fine. and in this one guy suit, he said, you can't make me do that. and the us supreme court heard the case and said, oh, contrary, we can make you do that because one states have police powers in the us constitution . and to we are going to consider the great good, like for a health emergency, which was that was what it was considered, the greater good outweighs the needs of the individual. so there is a precedent if states do want to move forward with requiring th

and securing the airport. but he did say that the u. s. did not coordinate at all with the taliban in terms of the exact time and date that the last plains left the airport. he said the airport is now plea out of the hands of the u. s. military. and he said, when asked, i can tell you with confidence that there are no single us service members anywhere in ghana. stan right now. he said also that he believes that there are about 2000. i saw k fighters still in afghanistan. and he said that the u. s. still, of course reserves the right to act against them. should it be necessary? and he said though, in his words, he said, and these are his words. he says, i think the taliban is going to have their hands full dealing with the ice. okay. fighters. those were his words. in short here, it was an interesting briefing because it was really frank frank, in terms of he also mentioned that the last evacuees actually were taken out of afghanistan 12 hours before the us actually pulled out of the airport. he insinuated that there could have been a few f

this is out of their life and also coming up. remembering the fall and the u. s. president received the bodies of american soldiers killed and say the talk at cobble k. no idea pushes in land, hundreds of thousands take shelves from one set to be the most powerful storm to hit louisiana for 1850. and these 5 lives in central mexico on the threads by people flocking to see that show me we begin in afghanistan, where the u. s. has carried out a drone strike targeting suspected suicide bombers. but according to some media reports, 9 members of one family, including 6 children, are among the dead. the strike was launched in the capital couple american officials say those targeted were planning to attack the cities airport. and of course follows a suicide bombing on thursday at the airport, where $175.00 people, including children, were killed. charles strafford had the very latest from couple it was late afternoon where we began to get reports of what them was being described as a rocket attack on a building north of the airport just beyond the the perimeter. some ph

u. s. and they treat withdraw critics, a washington's length operations in the country been playing directly into the taliban hands as it is done off reports. they've done it finally from seriously be in the mid least to venezuela and cuba and latin america. washington has a decades long history of failed attempts to bring anti government militia is to power . and at last, they've cracked the code in afghanistan, feeding them. they should have just fought against them all this time. thanks to our military. generalize and brave fighters of afghanistan. taliban regime is coming to an end. there is little doubt that our greatest military challenge right now is afghanistan. we must reverse the tale, bonds, momentum, and deny the ability to overthrow the government. our troops will fight to win. we will fight to win. it all started so well. the u. s. invaded the taliban fled to the mountains. the u. s. trained and trained and train the new. i've got an army, spend billions on supplying it with more

and they will pose a much more potent threat to the u. s. interest in the region. overall, the threat of kaiser and the stomach, a state is seen by the us security analyst, that persistent condition and not as an existing short threat to the u. s. strategic interests in the region and globally, also the stomach, a state has been engaged in africa and the deserts of syria. and there are basically contain their use would like to keep the fighting, confined to those areas. and the main issue for the use of the moment is the re emergence of long term strategic competition from russia and china. and for that reason, the u. s. does not want to be bulk down in the streets. i'm going to stand trying to keep peace and security and they would like to hand that over to the regional allies. names focused on and focused on has very close relations with oliver and focused on it will stop contracts that use interest to the tolerable and the following will go on to sub contract to the local commanders and the tribal elders will then looked up, construct that to the individuals with
