u. s. representative of the security council trying to explain the u. s. his position right now and what the u . s. is going to do after what nearly every diplomat i've spoken to says is a catastrophic foreign policy failure by washington. white house officials have been stunned at the speed of the ta ta bond take over the president. joe biden was at camp david on sunday, getting regular briefings from his national security team. he's been facing criticism for sticking to a plan initiated by his predecessor donald trump. to end the u. s. military mission enough can this time the secretary of state anthony blanket insist the u. s. has achieved its mission enough, gone this time. and he rejects comparisons to the vietnam war when american troops made a chaotic and humiliating exit from saigon in 1975. let's take a step back. this is manifestly not saigon. the fact the matter is this. we went to afghanistan 20 years ago with one mission in mind, and that was the deal with the people who attacked us on 911. and that mission has been successful. we brought a lot to

u. s. navy, in the south china sea as provocative. now come la harris, his visit is intended to signify 2 countries in the region that the u. s. is committed to keeping a rules based international order and in keeping the south china sea open. now part of the u. s. policy will be about strengthening ties with countries in the region. so the u. s. can be seen as a counterweight to china's growing influence. now how is china viewing this visit? while china's officials in one news agency portrayed at harrison visit as a drive to contain china. and it also describes the u. s. approach as outdated cold war thinking intended to create division and confrontation. now one of the things that harris will have to contend with during her visit is answering questions about of gonna start collapse and answering questions about us as credibility and commitment in keeping his foreign policy promises bow. the head of has the law, those fuel from iran will soon be arriving in lebanon. fuel prices jump by 70 percent off to the government, further reduced to subsidy on sunday,

u. s. representative of the security council trying to explain the u. s. his position right now and what the u . s. is going to do after what nearly every different matter i've spoken to says is a catastrophic foreign policy failure by washington. the rest of the days news is coming up, has periods presidential new recently taken office is already facing protest calling for his resignation. and engineers use young victims. the country struggles to contain one of the worst run of ours outbreaks in the world. ah, ah, it's time for the journey to winter sponsored my cattle airways. hello there for the middle east and live and it remains very hot and dry picture. however, temperatures have come down slightly across iraq am to 8, and that's thanks to a small wind that's blowing down and kicking up quite a bit of dust for q weight for guitar and parts of saudi arabia. so we are seeing some hazy sunshine temperatures dipping down over the next few days. we've also got a bit of a wind kicking into the western parts of saudi arabia, bringing temperatures down here. and

u. s. his tone of policy responsibility for the african christ his own to other nations. this is a worldwide international problem just because we are the, the nearest physically, the nearest country. that the african refugees seek refuge to doesn't necessarily should mean that we should be the only one dealing with turkey has been housing millions of syrian refugees. now adding more to this, it's really hard to bear with us is undoubtedly the only source of what's going on . and that can stand right now. they've created the mess and now they're trying to avoid the, the, the consequences of that. they have already started, you know, looking out people can to african countries and they have also in the past week or so have leagues, i'm calling for statements to the media from the back channels that the cherokee may, may accept. most of these refugees on behalf of to us and the, the turkish. first of all, the president, the foreign minister, everybody has said, you know, as totally was a kansas and they had never heard of it. keeping a close eye on what's happening or not c

u. s. his position to all of the international community. also too many of the u. s. is close allies, remember around the 15 seats on the security council tables 15 countries on it, 6 of them actually, some point had troops in afghanistan, and they will privately tell you that there was very little consultation of the move to pull out of afghanistan. and they were left really no choice but to follow suit. and certainly i think that that caused some, some concern in many of the capitals, particularly perhaps the u. k. and germany, which had the largest number of troops. we'll have to see what the close allies of the u. s. say, we'll have to see what china and russia say as you set said china and russia suggesting that they're close to recognizing the taliban. of course to taliban don't actually have a government in place at the moment. they're in charge, but they have no formal government in carpal. the meeting which starts 40 minutes from now will also be addressed by the u. n. sack general antonio terrorist and we expect him to relay the latest information on the gro

u. s. is sort of saying, i know, you know, there's a difference for the u. s. his interest and those of russia and china. it's surprises me not at all that he brought up, roger and shy because the live that you what the dog about is what happened over the last 17 days. i'm surprised. he didn't bring up the fact and take credit for kanye west. finally dropping donder leg if there is a issue that does not refer to how that exit was handled, he wanted to talk about it. so russia and china have been in the biden world view, that number one and number 2 enemies of his foreign policy. so of course you brought them up, this is a foreign policy speech. the question then becomes, how does it relate to china and russia as for their lation ship to have ghana, stan, you who know russia and china do have a far more complex relationship with them. again, as the incense they are closer and, and have a more regional relationship with them. but this was a wave to a tie, everything back to where the biting foreign policy, what you is, and obliquely, specifically with china, bring it

u. s. his involvement over the past 20 years. how, how can we characterize the, the role the u. s. is played and done a son. well, it's changed a lot over time. and soldiers and marines have deployed there at different moments in the war and at different places have seen very different things. it began as narrow counterterrorism mission. i'll be at one that always had an element of nation building, implicit and built into it because the fall of the, you know, the ouster of the taller bon required it. but over the years you saw the kind of a mission creep happened. as more and more troops were committed even before the obama administration serge, in 2009, 2010. leading up to a peak about a decade ago when there were a 100000 us troops in the country. $40000.00 allied troops in the country spread out into practically every district in every province. trying to build structures of government that we have now seen collapse before. and more recent years, seeing a gradual pull back into a more limited counterterrorism role. again. and so wesley was like, who is that? of course the withdr

u. s. his longest military conflict. i will leave that rob reynolds, natal ibanez watched on as once left of the us forces hang up and leave. shot about us has this exclusive report. the telephone has taken over. the fight is drive us, made humvees laden with us, made wittons around the last us military installation. in afghanistan, they look at x like former afghan government soldiers, the white flag, the only indication this is the telephone. it has been 20 years since the telephone controlled, cobble a port fighters into the capital 2 weeks ago, and quickly encircled it. the armed group had an agreement with the us, that it would remain outside and secure the perimeter until evacuations came to an end. now, with only 2 days to go, the u. s. footprint is shrinking. when did you get hold of this area? to have 2 hours ago? yes, we can hit the wrong person. so they've evacuated. clutching the us, made in full rifles of commandeered tele bon fighters, watch is american troops move inside the perimeter, destroy equipment an

u. s. his message regarding free passage for trade through the south trying to see during her trip to vietnam and singapore as i, as i talk about later this month. well this is india and germany or the. busy late countries to send warships right there to the south china sea. so for more discussion on this, we bring in political commentator and former us naval intelligence officer, john jordan. john, good to see you. i know you know this region very well. so i wanna, i wanna talk about exactly what's happening here. you know, we'll, we'll, indian germany sending naval ships the south trying to see what will that accomplish if anything, will this essentially intimidate china? is that, is that really the, you know, the move here is hugely significant. john, and there's really a couple of different parts to this. first of all, the british sent in their new aircraft carrier queen elizabeth with f. 35 jets on it. and now you have germany doing the same now can germany in england really project milita

u. s. his commitment to its citizens, to the applicant and to others in that pool, that if this operation needs to go beyond august 31st the tall a bon must allow that operation to continue? look, this is a decision that only one person will be able to make that person is not in afghanistan, that person is not in this building. that person sits in an office without corners in the white house. the president biden will ultimately have to decide when this operation will come to a close, i can tell you that it is our goal to move as quickly as we can and as efficiently as we can to bring to safety, as many people as we can. and i think we're seeing in the metrics in recent days and certainly over the past 24 hours that we are making good progress on that it is not our goal to be there one day, one hour, one minute longer than is absolutely necessary. but while the us says it will stick to the deadline, the german foreign minister suggested more flexibility. yes, this is phil mitten was added to cai

u. s. his warning that nearly 400000 civilians have had to leave the home since the start of this year that a huge spike to witnesses may further the you and says, the displaced people are heading to kabul to flee the taliban. well, that might, but far as just saying, here are some of the heart wrenching stories of refugees of to tell us. i have been displaced from telecontact. the telephone killed my son. they took all the belongings from my house and set fire to them in front of the punch me in the mouth, causing my teeth to fall out. they demanded my son and i told them that he's a school teacher. she recently became a teacher and had not even received his salary yet, had a class has broke out and we were taken hostage in the fighting, went on for about 6 to 7 days, but we couldn't go outside to do anything we managed to escape. and now we are displeased to look at those displaced africa and seeking a solid may not be that will come in europe even with the blogs currently loggerheads of what

u. s. his main air bases before they pulled out their forces in recent months. it's now used by civilian airlines and the african military. and for the un, another agencies, it's a vital lifeline. as roads have become more dangerous supplies need to be delivered by air from cobble but now control of the airport has become one of the most pressing diplomatic issues. the u. s. and other western embassies still have large numbers of staff in the country. working in heavily fortified compounds, other like you mean turkish president, reza tae bo dawn is offering to supply troops. so the airport remains secure. and in a worst case scenario can be used for an evacuation of international diplomats. it's really important because the airport is obviously the only way out of the country. and if the diplomatic missions are to stay in an afghan is then that is going to be administered at some level, maybe in a power sharing agreement by the taliban. then they need to be able to have a way out if either a civil war starts, or if the taliban decide to gain more power. and so t

i think i shall go dependent too much on his u. s. c. and his u. s. has proven that it has turned out to be not framed of anyone when, when their firms needed them, their deserted them, their deserted pockets on, and they have no, have it used to be alliance with the reduced auto with india. and similarly it has a history of dealing with the other countries. so that is why i think most jewish has completely changed. i for she glitter all of this year and good to all of china, focus on perhaps some level of dog in on. i don't foresee any bigger one off of the u. s. a. in the longest on other than recreating is stuff from bessie's. java could talk. she's so much more about this. thanks for your time. we go way over. so to leave it, go from your political on this job and run it. thank you for your time. come back. talk to you soon. yeah. have a nice day and you will get back to this. her main story. the taliban, we think is the outskirts may be holding back, but the news is that they're about to take, cobble or have taken it. we're going to come back to

u. s. his understanding that the taliban with making sure. 1 to and from the airport would be secured from any sort of imminent danger. he says we may wait for more details. one thing is clear, we can't trust the taliban with american security. this is a full fledged humanitarian crisis. it also tell you the president's republican critics on capitol hill are also very, very unhappy see thing as a result of the news of these attacks and the death of at least 4 americans, one republican congress will excuse him, the president of having blood on his hands another, a veteran of the us military representative. den crenshaw said, we are still at war accusing president biden say you didn't end the war. you just gave the enemy the new advantage and he is urging the president to go on the office . that is certainly something the potentially the president is considering. as the pentagon has drawn up contingency plans. we also know that another prominent senator who has been more hawkish with respect to m

u. s. is gone. what makes you say that when you talk about laughing effects? because again, people point to the fact that the u. s. and his partners were there for 20 years, and in the space of a few few months, weeks, even. we saw a complete collapse of the african african government forces. the surprised even the taller bond. yes. no, i'm not talking about the security forces or the ability to control or defeat the caliber. i think the u. s. telegraphing that it was leaving for so long, reducing its forces to level that we're not really capable of non gauging anymore. that gave them the opportunity to convince regional leaders and eventually those who were working with the government that they would eventually win. and once convinced that the government forces would lose rather than fight. and they just sit down that of course, you know, contributed to the speed in which the government but what i was referring to is not so much security forces, but the society, i think a country has a kaji and culture and outlook. and of course, most of that is pretty constant. culture doesn't change, but i think access to education acc
