u. s. influence over the taliban price went on to say that the u. s. does have some influence and it includes holding. busy onto the ask in central banks $10000000000.00 in reserve funds currently being kept in the federal reserve, the u. s. federal reserve in new york city along with the commitments that the taliban has made with several 100 other countries. and also the un security council and how it operates, including as price was talking about the treatment of women, minorities, and other issues that you know, let's face it, the taliban doesn't exactly have a very good track record on this says there are still concerns about us citizens remaining in the country and afghans getting their s i v, their special immigrant visas, expedited us officials have said the the that america this i v program does work slowing and was not designed for a mass evacuation airlift mission that we've been seeing. and that's something that current officials release, you know, pretty squarely put the blame on the truck and ministration for pulling resources and funding from.

u. s. does have a great deal of leverage over the future and government that so far it hasn't used much of a fuel success in the us has been in terms of trade. it's industrial parks are occupied by america, not multinational. it's benefiting from this tax benefit. those that introduced 2 decades ago, and there was a fear that would be withdrawn, but that did not happen. and there is a relief in the sub a despite the presence in the administration of those 9 to be open to us interventions that are samantha power, u. s. id. it hasn't imposed punishing sanctions on the if you can government. and let's say there are multiple reasons for washington's caution. ethiopia is the us as main ally in the strategically important horn of africa and key to its projection of power across the region. ethiopia is also important to us as warren tara, an important component against our bob in somalia. and now that us troops officially withdrawn permanence abbey, i'm. it is also deregulating and privatizing ethiopia

u. s. does default on its loans that could send the u. s. economy into recession and of course de, stabilize global markets. so likely would that measure destined to fail and we'll see tonight that would mean the democrats have to very quickly go back and draft an alternate solution as the clock is ticking. and as we heard, they are plenty busy this week today with those infrastructure and separate spending bill also under consideration with democrats themselves failing to reach a consensus on how to move forward with those of the white house priorities. yeah. how does your castro, with all the nations force from capitol hill? thanks so much i i'm leaving on now and several provinces and china's northeast region are experiencing power cuts because of coal shortages and tightening emission standards. now initially, it affected manufacturers across the country. many of whom have had to stop production in recent weeks. china is highly dependent on coals, the power, but being aims to cur, pollution, and emissions of climate change in gases. well

u. s. does default on its debt, and how does that imply, or how does that impact rather the countries on the global stage? well, the clips you just paid. rachel really shows the, the polarity of the political parties. but there's 2 issues here. there's paying for the debt that we've already incurred, and then there's the new debt. and that's really where the negotiation might come in. so at this point right now, i would say that the risk of the false is still relatively low. and with this negotiation, it really will be a matter of the consensus for actually paying off the bills that we've incurred. and then what the democrats want, which is to raise the debt showing even further so that they can include their new government spending. and that's really the rub right here from the political standpoint. so the government can be closed for quite some time before we go into default. unless of course, during that time, if we have another disaster, whether it be a natural disaster or pandemic crisis, p

u. s. does not get to exit iraq and afghanistan, but is expelled. and at the same time, he to the oppressed people from palestine and syria, to yemen and up gun, it's done as well as the us taxpayers who have to pay for this lack of rationality . today, the world doesn't care about america. first, all america is fag feverish analogy prevailed in the minds of the decision makers. they have to realize that nations persevere and is stronger than the power of the superpowers. over the past decade, the u. s. has be making the mistake of modifying its way of war with the world instead of changing it to way of life. and your romeo paul cannot be brought to fruition by merely adopting a different method sanctions, or the us new way of war with the nations of the world. sanctions against the arena . nations started not with my country nuclear programs. they even produces nomic revolution and go back to the 951. when will nationalization went on the way to rod, which in turn led to a military coup back by the americans and the britons against the government o

u. s. does not want to close down one final day. so 1st of all, president obama was making a concerted effort to do so. pointing to envoys of the state and defense departments to do so. but another something that has not been mentioned that that have been part of the difficulty and closing down on cono bay is that's when we decided to release somebody one final day. we have to release them either to their home country or to a 3rd country if their home country wouldn't take them. and in many to in all cases, we have to we have to receive assurances from that country that we were sending them to, that they would not be tortured or detained, or unfairly treated once they got back. and in many cases, we actually were not able to receive those assurances from the home countries. we would start looking for 3rd countries, but it was really difficult to find any country that wanted to take them because they were so keen that unfortunately by the one animal brown take the case of the week or for example, all of the leaders that were animal d

u. s. does not need to spend that much money out of military that couldn't win wars enough ghana, stan or iraq that people have with the latest from the pentagon. thank you. still to come here on al jazeera, we're going to speak to the photographer who captured this eye clinic image shortly after the 1st power at the world trade center. ah, ah. once again, after 2 or 3 nice warm sunny days in london for example, the weather in northwest was going to be overtaken by expanding circulation of cloud, bringing cooler and temporarily wet weather. now that's a fatty typical patton with pressure hurry over france and spain. so north settled warm weather and this big gap and clad in eastern europe, which is where the temperatures are actually fairly high. so whilst things are turning west and when the in scandinavia, and just breezy and normal, the british isles. so the warms, as represented by this overlay of oranges shows itself would be most concentrated in the balkans baltic states. actually vilnius

this is going to take some time to figure out and what does the u. s. have to make the taliban allow this to happen? does the u. s. have any leverage now that they're not that in afghanistan. well, i do think the tyler bond is going, is discovering already that it is easier to run an insurgency than to run a country. they're going to need help. clearly, as the reporting, you know, before we, we chatted indicated. so you know, what kind of international assistance are they open to? how will that be delivered? you know, to what effect, you know, so there is some leverage. but i think that's one of the reasons why secretary defense austin will be traveling to the region to thank your country's the region for helping the evacuation, but also to try to figure out how can the region and the united states, you know, apply some leverage, some pressure to try to shape how the taliban moves going forward. p. j. crowley. many thanks for giving us your thoughts for my us. assistant secretary of state. or the taliban has surrounded the only province resisting its occ

u. s. is trying to maintain its position so they, that imaginary part is all about what the u. s. perceives which china does not agree with. ok, well, i can understand you. i live in russia. i know what it feels like. farrah. let me go to you in knoxville that the problem is here is that china is rising or returning depending on how you want to look at it. and it's the very fact that it is rising is a threat or a challenge to american hegemony. and that's why i said in my introduction, it's time to start negotiating. this is a reality, chinese market is suddenly stopped developing, and it's certainly, and it has no reason to listen to what the united states says, particularly when it comes to its internal affairs. so, i mean, this is the quandary we all have. china is rising and the very fact that it is rising is from watch events perspective, a threat to it's a gemini, why the u. s. should be hedge a monic? well, that's a different question. go ahead, sir. yeah, you know, china is rising and it's something that cannot be stopped, especially because the government is trying to emphasize domestic growth in p

u. s. is trying to maintain its position, so they, that imaginary part is all about what the u. s. perceives which china does not agree with. okay, well i can understand you. i live in russia. i know what it feels.

what does this tell us about the special relationship between the us and britain as the u. k. looks to secure a trade deal post, breaks it with the u. s. and what does it mean for the european union at its strategic ambitions and defense capabilities? as you said earlier, kelly france will push for an increase role. ready of the european union and your bents at large in the recipe. actually today the you adopted and they're listed in the strategy, which is a straight to that's your band wants to play a role in that region. and front is clearly driving actor in the master bed. committed, we think that a strong cooperation with the u. s. u. k. key in the region and search the political decision that the major is actually the part of the book trust between paris, london, and washington, which is needed. given the changes in the region, structure manufacturer for being with us appear more cost. and having set him all ahead here. all that is including i scatter psalms, acting deputy prime minister says he's alive and well off to rumors of his death. why the philippines government says that it won't cooperate with the i c c. investigation.

u. s. involvement. 3rd, does he deserve praise for that? i think at some point, we realized that the mission in afghanistan was not going to be successful. and it wasn't worth american lives to stay there. but it didn't mean that we could have an orderly plan to get the americans. and of course, the afghans have dentist answers supported us. they always say the interpreters, but there are many more. these are people who put their lives at risk for america and also for other countries that were there. so it should have been it shouldn't, it should have been done much differently. and let's not forget, job writing was vice president for 8 years. and when obama was the president and we lost a lot of lives during that time, president trump had a plan. and in the last, i think over a year, i think was a year and a half weeks americans were i understand one president accomplish cousin who is a single life. so i don't think he deserve particular credit for for the withdrawal. i do think it's going to be hard. we have a lot of americans who serve b

u. s. why, why does it cost more money to investigate america? well, the, the u. k. contributes money to the i, c. c. the united states refuses to recognize the icpc never has recognized the i c . c. back in 19, in the 1980s. the government of nicaragua took the u. s. to the world court in the hague. and the world court found by a 15 to 0 margin that the u. s. had violated nicaragua was right, and had committed crimes against humanity by mining harbors in nicaragua. so the u . s. has a historically hostile attitude towards international court, unless those courts are paid for by the united states, like the special us tribunals that tried milosevic junior, flavio, or people in rwanda or of course, the targets of american imperialism in the middle east. so the i t. c, when it boldly said that they were going to investigate war crimes and crimes against humanity last year or the year before that the u. s. committed in afghanistan. as you heard in your earlier segment, mike pump pay when the trump administration imposed sanctions on i t. c. officials and their familie

u. s. secret service morales is employees who are involved in the operation does not just spy on julianna's size, but revealed that they had even been told to consider an operation to assassinate julian hassan the top dissident in the west with poison. with more and more information being published and being, you know, and people knowing about this about possible cia abuses when it comes to their, their dealings with drilling assange. i mean, it's definitely going to take away credibility from the, from washington's attempt at appealing for his extradition. to the united states, coming up next, the new born baby of an 18 year old inmates has died holding a series of failings and quote, inadequate care. in britain's largest female prison will bring you that story. after this short break. i use the the the the, the, the, the when i would show the wrong, why don't just don't the rule. yes to fill out the same because after an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart and we choose to look for common ground in this welcome back is petro pumps run dry in the u. k. an

u. s. ally and this does appear to weaken the power of us sanctions. how is it being viewed in washington? well, i think washington is in a state of chaos as, as most people i think can discern washington is very much of the view that it wants to remove itself from the region. the events in afghanistan over the last month clearly indicate that. and mrs had a ripple effect in terms of forcing states in the middle east to reassess their own policies in the region. so we're effectively seeing, i think, primarily as a result of the u. s. withdraw from the middle east. countries in the region reassessing their own interests, old enemies establishing relations with each other. although, you know, gradually we saw this a couple years ago when the tension between saudi arabia and tar started to wither away and the blockade was lifted. we're seeing it in terms of a dialogue between, you know, you iran in saudi arabia. so all of these things are, you know, connected, i think, to these regional realignments. but i think the big event was the one that i just indic

u. s. decided that anyone who does business with iran will be sanction and breaking us, breaking us louis or the case against mom was a she gave some sort of powerpoint presentation to hsbc, about a deal between highway chinese, a chinese bank. hsbc would be part of it with a u. k. at which would then have it would tell us that was dealing with an iranian firm. so these are all the different others for so what standing does the us really haven't this, this deal has nothing to do with the us. but beyond that very, the defense was saying, so what the us is trying to say is that h s p c. and i would have been them by the way, who would have broken the law hsbc, contravene us sanctions? because mon convey them that they could go ahead with a deal. whereas the proof that it was actually among it said it said that they had convinced them for assault and then where was the, who's the injured party anyway? because hsbc is also the us getting outrageous. b c. now somebody who is the injured party. what exactly was the crime was the proof beyond a reasonable doubt, these are all questions to say it
