as growing tension between russia and nato in europe, posture, a series of incidents between military forces. moscow says nato's 5 planes have stepped up, attempts to gather intelligence in the black sea region. andrew semen spend a day with british royal air force pilots stationed in the remaining coastal city of constantia, as they call them q r. a's quick reaction alerts from the physical sprint to the thrust of take all within minutes. these nato fighter jets can intercept or track russian warplanes is the latest incident, the top left of this cockpit, or russian fighter jets intercepted of the romanian coastline. it's close with no room for mistakes. tens of meters would seem quite close to $21.00 that's on initiated in terms of relative procedures is totally normal. it's been set to in that range. but raffles, commanders, there's nothing normal about what's happening. probably in my senior since then we've had, i think anytime you fly inside a flight, information region of another country, not following the norms without flight plan, then i think it's not the sorts of behavior w

i have spoken with our nato allies. we have spoken with nato allies, the secretary of state, our national security advisor has been in contact with our allies as has -- i keep calling him the general but my secretary of defense. the fact of the matter is i have not seen that. as a matter of fact, the exact opposite i've got, exact opposite. we are acting with dispatch, committing to what we said we

these nato fighter jets can intercept or track russian warplanes is the latest incident. the top left of the cockpit, or russian fighter jet, intercepted of the romanian coastline. it's close with no room for mistakes. pens of meters would seem quite close to $21.00 on initiated since relative procedures. it's totally normal. it's been step 2 in that range. but raffles, commanders, there's nothing normal about what's happening probably in my senior since then we've had, i think anytime you fly inside a flight, information region of another country, not following the norms without flight plan, then i think it's not the sort of behavior we'd like to see in the international community in the, at their own stand by 247. and when the alert comes fast moving is an understatement. when this plane gets airborne, it could fly up to 20 kilometers a minute. the nearest russian air base is less than 280 kilometers away. it's in crimea, which was illegally annexed by russia in 2014. that's the main reason for added tension in the black c, j your or those about what? somebody in june,

we land on the nato control side at the airport. the situation is calm, far removed from the chaos outside the perimeter. fence controlled by the taliban. long lines of africans wait in single file to bold the plains. these are some of the 10s of thousands of people try to flee. cobble today we arrived here, i suppose about half an hour ago. they're all for military. i crawl civil chinese the loading up with people so they are too afraid to remain in this country. i think this is divine williams by the city that i fall off the city that gave me the time to be i think there's a lot of raw emotion. these are really emotion. i live, find a lot of memory and contradictions. a lot of been a lot of suffering, but yet cobble gave us a threat and somehow what you're seeing here, a rain rain. this is the mother being forced beneath all of the navy act like it's all about of course have said that they will be no reprisals against people who've worked with oversees all was the media organizations for their family members speak to people if the

i've spoken with our nato allies. we've spoken with nato allies, the secretary state, or national security via he's been in contact with his counterparts throughout the world. and our allies, as has the general or excuse me, i keep calling him in general, but my secretary defense the fact of the matter is i have not seen that matter. fact the exact opposite i've got. now donald trump has said that this is the greatest strategic error in us history. he called it capitulation. donald trump has said that joe biden owes america an apology. the world is now looking on and watching the scenes in cobble. the white house is certainly under quite a bit of fire. jo biden's poll numbers are dropping. many are looking on the situation and afghan stan and saying that the united states seems to have pretty much dropped the ball here. yes, not an issue that is not going away anytime soon for president biden. caleb opened there. thanks for that late this up, that will be all going into a short break now join us again in a few on his

when you say they have _ and nato allies. when you say they have been _ and nato allies. when you say they have been abandoned, i and nato allies. when you say i they have been abandoned, they are a fighting force of 350,000, they are relatively well equipped compared to the taliban, not least with some airpower. is there not a point at which responsibility is being handed over here, and needs to be seized on? i being handed over here, and needs to be seized on? i think the responsibility _ needs to be seized on? i think the responsibility was - needs to be seized on? i think the responsibility was handed | the responsibility was handed overin the responsibility was handed over in a very haphazard manner. the americans and nato always kept control of logistics, they always kept control of the maintenance of the afghan air force. all of that was taken away without discussion with the afghan government. look, the afghan government. look, the afghan government may have its own flaws and weaknesses, but the fact of the matter is when president biden says the afghan leaders sh

this is how nato soldiers have presumably decided to keep people away. so, but why need is a need as high as the very, very dense and simply, you know, there's, there's no way to cross it. and given the desperation of people, he has some of the people here that the, to get out. that is the only thing keeping the matt also while there, we heard ceaseless shooting, it was odyssey was endless. every, every 10 minutes, 10 minutes wouldn't pass without gunshots either inside the airport. so this is american. nato troops firing warding shots, presumably toward away people who tried to climb over the fed. that to take a shortcut into the airport. then we had the taliban outside of the main jackport at the main drive into the, into the airport at the terminals. them also foreign warning shots, much less controlled fashion. so when we were driving out of the apple, we had a taliban father running in foreign warning shots as a behind him. it's a miracle. no one was heard. look a little ways away from the airport. we saw blood in the guy and a lot of lot of people

i've spoken with our nato allies spoken with nato allies, the secretary state or national security via he's been in contact with his counterparts throughout the world. and our allies, as has the general r b, i keep calling them in general, but my secretary defense, the fact of the matter is i have not seen a matter of fact the exact opposite. i've got, this is about america leading the world and all our allies have agreed with that. the seemingly out to lunch attitude and utter fiasco that took place under the current administration has drawn criticism from not just biden's rivals, but from fellow party members as well. i'm disappointed that the button administration clearly did not accurately assess the implications of a rapid us withdrawal. the images we saw coming out of august on show a tremendous humanitarian crisis. this is going to hurt us. no question about it. i think of janice town, his last, every terrorist around the world is cheering. they have watched the taliban defeat america. in effect, president buttons, poor judgment produced the worst possible outcome in afghanistan

says what nato circumstance nate -- nato is, nato is a paper tiger. when america pulls out nato is nowhere, others have massive strategic implications for the world and for the u.s. preprestige and good u.s. has done in the world, undermined by joe biden's catastrophic decision to are draw, know conditionally -- withdraw unconditionally with any regard who what is going on to unconditionally withdraw from the country of afghanistan. >> president biden has trashed the afghan soldiers and army, what do you say about that? >> i would say. that i never heard such a disgraceful speech from the president of the united states much america as i heard the other day he said the buck stops with me, but he then the went on to explain how the buck stopped with everyone else, it was not with him, it was everyone else, starting with president trump, and suggesting for one moment he was forced to carry out a policy like this because of president trump's policy is laughable, a pit -- pitiful excuse for what he has done. there were other options, he did not have to tak

states and nato. our secretary of state and our secretary of defense went to repeated ministerial meetings at nato for consultation on this decision and secured a decision for it to be carried out along that timetable. what the president also committed to was making sure every last nato troop on the ground in afghanistan -- and there were more nato troops in afghanistan than american troops when joe biden took office -- could get out safely and securely without a single casualty. he executed that. finally he's committed to that sill tating the flights of our nato allies and partners to get civilians and others out. planes from nato countries have landed and taken off with their personnel over the course of the last 24 hours. [ indiscernible question ] >> how can you assure allies that the united states will defend them. for example, if china affects thailand, the chinese can argue that -- how can you justify the u.s. involvement in taiwan and south korea? i also understood the united states did not wa

a nato official says 20 people have died in and around the airport in the past 7 days. the british military is calling the conditions extremely challenging.

the nato secretary general said the priority for nato was as follows. nato's focus right now is to ensure the safe departure or personnel from allied and partner countries. and of the africans who have helped us felt very good miss that europe was surprised at the speed of the political and military collapse of the campbell government. it was something that they had not anticipated . he also said that he was frustrated that after years of international assistance, the results were to quote, him not better. produced, journalist focuses on international affairs. richard meant us, things to use. priority is not human rights, its profits and foreign policy objective. we've known for decades now that the war and again a sand his last, it was last from day one that this government was never going to work. and yet a series of us generals and nato officials lying about the capacity and capability of the afghan government that they set up. and the security forces, who they pumped full of weapons to make money for the arms industry. if the taliban have of course territorial control, they don't have

the nato air strikes, the crowd were bombing the taliban, but had ordinary working people's homes. even though everything was documented, several years later, these people have still been unable to secure any compensation data she down. she would rather do she was younger still, if you could, if you know that there was once an american military base close to where these people used to live. they could see puppy fields flowering in the distance. but even though the crop was that close to a nato base, no one seemed to be to bob, and i'm just trying to what i could judge was what you meant us. allen's up. how about him, jennifer? the 2nd could lead auditor for the other day. so my, me, the elephant, what does that mean? what the, what does that make you feel that you deal with john? you just saw the moment i got you set out to you. the hardest thing for anyone visiting afghanistan to figure out these days is with the $7000000000.00 that the us allocated to combating afghan heroin has gone since 2001. if what we saw in central cabal today is the pinnacle of the anti drug campaign. and

but even though the crop was there, close to a nato base, no one seemed to be to bob. and i'm just, what i could, that was what you meant was ellen. how about angelica, via judy from 2nd? cordelia did all of their both either of these are my me either jennifer, i don't want them to sit down. they will let you know that you know that you deal with john. you just out of the mind me out to jot. i just got out of the hardest thing for anyone visiting afghanistan to figure out these days is where the $7000000000.00 that the us allocated to combating afghan heroin has gone since 2001 . if what we saw in central cabal today is the pinnacle of the anti drug campaign. and it's very clear why the overall acreage of poppy fields in the country continues to grow each year. just as we were about to finish filling the anti drug wall or phone rang, it was science later, the man we had help get into a drug rehabilitation program the previous day. yes. waiting for you. nobody evidence of the brother no show. when you go to melissa moody, kind of it is this is our 3rd time visiting. so

the nato air strikes the crowd were bombing the taliban. that had ordinary working people's homes, even though everything was documented, several years later, these people have still been unable to secure any compensation data sheet down. and she was, she was gonna try to send it over. you could go, you know, look forward. you almost going to be bad. there was ones in american military base close to where these people used to live. they could see puppy fields flowering in the distance. but even though the crop was that close to a nato bass, no one seemed to be to bobby, i'm gone, but what i could not was what you meant was ellen's up. how about angelica? dear judy from cordelia did auditor both of these on monday, the jalap of the live dentist, bentley, what will you, does i get to know that you deal with john? you just solve the moment i got i do sort out the hardest thing for anyone visiting. i've got this down to figure out these days is where the $7000000000.00 that the us allocated to combating afghan heroin has gone since 2001 . if wh

and also finally the nato allies are not happy about this at all. they feel as abandoned as many of the afghans do. they feel they didn't have enough flts. they didn't like the fact that the fact that bagram air base was shut down before the actual withdrawal was completed. so that kept air cover not only for the afghan forces but also for their departing troops and diplomats. the president did mention today that they had given some air cover just there in kabul to the french to get the four miles to the airport. but there is a lot of dismay in paris, in london, in berlin with the way we left the nato allies that were with us from day one, the day after 9/11 nato passed the one and only agreement to come to the defense of the united states. because we were under attack on 9/11. the only time in nato 70 year history they have every done that was for us and we are leaving much sooner than they expected. >> is yeah, the president downplaying any disagreement with the allies. thank you. i want to go back to richard in qatar. but i do have to ask you, as

he made a unilateral decision, he did not consult with nato allies. he said, i'm going to do this, and i'm sorry, i'm going to have to disagree it on the vietnam analogy as well. president ford did not unilaterally decide to withdraw us troops from afghanistan. us troops withdrew 2 years before this, the fall of saigon. what happened was, the u. s. was committed providing logistic, a congress passed a law that said that won't happen. i refer you to the louis sorely book, a better war for the details on that. so what you had here was a different situation entirely. how to unilateral decision by the president, which i think history will show in the fullness of time, did not consult with. and he, cutty, in the career oxy and the kindergarten the state farm. it's because he was worried that he would get rolled as happened in 2000 and not made a unilateral decisions without consulting with allies. that created a condition that just snowball beyond any recognition. but that being said, nobody expected to happen this quickly. and i don't really fault him for

it does not require further nato expansion. also, russia, keep its hands off and get out of places like that. the only way a belief to start that process knowing realistically is to perhaps consider what you may call a dialogue. former senator not in others on the russian side who have a historical perspective on this relationship they can talk and propose some ideas without it seeming like they are speaking for their government or giving a unilateral confession. give some deniability to the government and the idea on how to use the tension in eastern europe hundred europe can be arrived at. just not a person that we can or should never expect to trust or admire. we can at least look for new framework for that part of the world that will be less dangerous. maybe the best way to start. >> i would just add that i think that the president's trip is actually laying the groundwork to get to a more integrated and strategic policy towards russia. some conversation with our closest allies about what they have been experiencing. how the

earlier told, nato secretary general, announced he is convening a virtual meeting of nato foreign minister on friday to discuss our common approach. the united states and international community has been clear, we remain committed to combating terrorism in afghanistan and will not tolerate a government that allows afghanistan to once again become a safe haven for terrorists. as president biden said, the united states will maintain a laser focus on our counterterrorism mission in afghanistan and in other parts of the world. we will hold the taliban accountable to the commitments they made in the 2020 agreement and those they have made since that they will not allow terrorist groups that threaten the united states or its allies to operate on afghan soil. before i take your questions, i want to speak to a situation that's very personal to me. facing afghan women and children. yesterday the taliban held a press conference where they claim they intend to allow women to work and study. but only within what they call their "frameworks." the united states and the international community will be vi

the six to 500 nato -- the 6500 nato combined with that. we have no way to identify threats in the region and we have no keep ability to respond -- no capability to respond. we have to get the interpreters out and the surveillance reconnaissance cap abilities have been completely wiped out. all the intelligence capability was gone. now that the embassy has shut down, we have no eyes and ears on the ground. it means we can't see what's happening afghanistan or with al qaeda. any potential threats to the homeland. even beyond that, in the region. most importantly, that capability give us eyes and ears on russia, china, and iran. this is a victory for our adversaries, like russia, china, and iran, a victory for the taliban. they are going to celebrate the 20 anniversary of 9/11. probably raise the jihadis flag over the u.s. embassy. it is emboldening our enemies and weakening our allied friendships. i predict that it is going to become a terrorist safe haven again, and we are going to be looking at potential external operations, to hit america

i've spoken with our allies, we have spoken with nato allies, we have spoken with nato allies in the secretary of state, our national security adviser within the context with the counterparts around the world and our allies. as had

it is not just nato, is lots of countries. - just nato, is lots of countries. there is no evidence since the decision that nato would withdraw 18 months ago and strike a deal with the taliban. and we would make a gradual and reflect the realities on the ground, there is no evidence that britain has tried to rally nato allies. there is no evidence that we would set out to rebuild the support of regional powers like russia, china, pakistan, it was were in agreement and 2003 when nato took over that mission and there is no evidence that any of the preparations necessary for a post departure period have been put in place. everything the prime minister as we talked about today, it is only the decent stubble fell and made the calls to other nations —— since bob —— kabul. only six months ago, the ten year plan and strategy for britain's diplomatic defence and foreign policy and there only two parts and references to afghanistan and no mention of withdrawal of the taliban. this is a government that was utterly unprepared for the withdrawal and has been caught s

on february, the 29th 2020 a peace treaty assigned, obliging nato states to withdraw their troops in return. for taliban guarantees that i've got this down will not become a safe haven for terrorists for the company. so i wanna get to know what you know, that was reported out there that you did go to the nato began to withdraw troops. and under the terms of the agreement between the taliban and the united states, the gun, the government was forced to release $5000.00 convicted taliban members, including known warlords. soon after that the taliban would conduct a series of terror attacks and begin to retake the country district by district. on the night of july, the 2nd 2021. the americans abandoned bad drum and bass and did so secretly without notifying the local authorities. the african military was compelled to secure the site to protect it from looters. before leaving american soldiers removed unneeded vehicles, military hardware and other surplus items and dumped them near the base. the site is now a big junkyard. sure to be a little more the among the piles of detritus, the vehi

a harsh spotlight on two decades of us and nato military commitment in afghanistan. it looks and feels like a strategic defeat. but what does it tell us about the geopolitical balance of power. at kabul airport has put a harsh spotlight on two decades of us and nato military commitment in afghanistan. it looks and feels like a strategic defeat, but what does it tell us about the wider geopolitical balance of power? well, my guest is russia's ambassador to the uk, andrei kelin. is this reverse for the us and her allies a positive for russia? and is moscow seeking to exploit other perceived vulnerabilities in the west? ambassador andrew kelin, welcome to hardtalk. your government appears to view the overthrow of a democratically elected government in afghanistan by a theocratic islamist militant group as an overall positive. why? oh, i wouldn't say so, and i never heard such an estimation. you wouldn't say so? that we are glad that it's happened? no, of course not. it is definitely a failure for the coalition to be in afghanistan for 20 years and doing nothing. but on

there's troops, nato troops, inside the airport, the scaring away would be refugees. people who don't necessarily have the paper that even those who have the papers and do all unable to get into the airport, whether they're not being levied by the taliban or not being led by nato troops. american troops predominately but what i can tell you is that the taliban here, the government, this is taking shape. they've just established a minister nominated the ministry of information and culture and they our and something of a job offensive. i can tell you that comparing what it was like here before, we went to the same office, the same building, the ministry of information, and 2018 and now, and the difference is incredible. a tell about g to be making a huge effort to job journalists. they gave us an interview. the 1st interview, the minister's 1st interview, as the minister of information i've got to start was to a russian group of journalists. and he said that the taliban has changed yet. it is assured that it's over the last 20 years, the taliban has learned many things.

i've spoken with nato allies

and nato and western european countries like libyan syria. and i've had, you know, disastrous consequences. so, one would hope this might situation f canister might be a wake up call. you know, these military interventions don't work affectively and cause a lot of hardship and suffering for the population of these countries will have to solve their own internal political problems. most international lead scholar, believe the war in afghanistan was illegal because the taliban never directly sent 911 hijackers to bomb the trade center. and there are no legal basis for that war. so the swift advancement made by the taliban is a failure of the afghan forces. i mean is that kind of tone deaf and simply just punting responsibility. the us cannot and should not try to deflect blame for what's happened there at the end of the day. we are the ones who invaded that country. we're the ones who over through the government there and replaced it with, with our own. and so when we suddenly decide to leave and everything goes to crap, we're ultimately respon

but, you know, when you, when you see the, the nato, nato meeting recently, the g 7. and it's all really about china, china, china, ok. and the americans are obsessed with russia, but the rest of, with russia and china at the same time, the europeans are a little bit more in between here. i don't see how they can divide russian china when they're both being the target of aggressive rhetoric at the very least from the us. go ahead, alexander well, when americans, i mean american, the leaves are stuck in about russia or china. they actually don't talk above them, the real russia, china, there's a like run through symbols in the internal pool. so the main idea was for a long time after then what profess loan said union for period unity pull a moment was this is going to become an age of union or it will be there forever. so as o a d o and just they and the american, the leads i would say and they rejected sex, rejected for a long time. the fact that russia and china was coming together and was forming a kind of defect to ally and senior regime, which wasn't used to be a

the every single nato aircraft. it's taking off american aircraft, looted, but civilians with american citizens, europeans troops, they're all down the sides of taliban guns. the palate wanted to cause trouble, they very well could. well, as you can see, chaos isn't suing and i guessed, and there's also a group of california students and parents remain stranded overseas. now while there are poorly had a ticket out, none of them were able to get to the airport in time. ours course on top street has been put on the story and we continue to follow it, but more has more on their current situation. at least 20 students and 16 parents from a school in san diego remain in afghanistan after a summer trip abroad. now lawmakers say they're working to get them and thousands of others out of afghanistan, horrifying images last week at the cobble international airport as a telephone resume. power people wanted out, but it wasn't just local from afghanistan trying to escape. there were also many americans attempting to fly home.

we could use us or nato i dominating it is interesting. we could use us or nato air power. a sort of striking that when the united states decided to leave all the rest of nato decided it had to leave to. we knew that in advance but this was a mission attorney concluded a total of 12,000 nato soldiers and frankly, it shouldn't have required that the united states to be there for the rest of nato to be willing to be there but as we've seen in britain and canada and france, other countries over the years, the people came to the same kind of sense of frustration that president biden just sense of frustration that president bidenjust did sense of frustration that president biden just did this and therefore most of nato as main countries have elected not to. but we could provide airpower out of this, we could help them find centuries in the north where they could have solid bases to repair their equipment, protect refugees, from sums kind of the staging base for operations against the taliban. so there are still many tools. ijust taliban. so there are still many tools. i just don

ready enough to understand there is lively, severe society and all these nato involvement success . all this is, of course, this hypocrisy it's, it's page, it was for 4 years painted a picture which is not in line with reality, which we can see, you know, i think we should take and bring refugees who are in fear of life. but at the same time, i think it's necessary to really talk to the real power in afghanistan, the tardy bands to go to negotiations to negotiations as well. concerning the refugees and not to break all diplomatic ties. protective gathered a lot, going on wednesday condemning the u. k government funds to events and i've got us on a cold for those still stock that can be brought to you as quickly as possible. i'll be a u. k. foreign secretary dominic rob is faced big criticism in the media. it's offered was reported, african interpreters who was with british troops, missed being evacuated from cobble because the politician was too busy to agree to move while away on holiday. i've got ministers refused to talk to a junior minister and delay the call by which time the t

president trump who negotiated with nato to make sure there were 5,000 nato troops there as well. kabul was free and the situation was under control. we have got to get back to that situation at least long enough to get back to evacuation of our citizens. we need to get them to safety as soon as possible. judge jeanine: if we don't, we'll be the ugly americans. we'll be people information whom people put their lives on the line and ended up dying. robert o'brien, thanks for being with us. just as i thought. milly knew. he knew from the trump administration. as afghanistan fell to the taliban. one afghan journalist spoke out amidst the chaos. her powerful message and lara logann >> i'm very upset today. i didn't expect overnight all the taliban come. they took my flag, this is my flag. judge jeanine: that brave reporter nazira karimi will never stop fighting for the afghanistan she loves. thank you for being here tonight. you are a respected journalist and reporter. and someone we have seen on television pleading with the president. what is it that is happening in afghanistan that

i was part of this in trying to establish normal contacts in the relationship with nato. but sadly, we have seen that there is no desire to take into account the interests of russian federation. and moreover, there is a big desire to promote interests in the neighbouring states, just avoiding the russian federation. that was bad. and from this we started to divide and it has come later on to alienation, and grown that alienation, because we still do not see how... you're alienated, are you? you're alienated from the united kingdom government, from the us government? no, there is a division in europe with the enlargement of european union and nato, and the united kingdom is trying to make it deeper, i'm afraid. see, if you want to bridge some of the differences, if you want to send signals that russia is interested in improving relations, why are you ramping up your cyber attacks on the uk and other western countries? and why are you ramping up your spying activities as well? we are not doing this. it is proved... there is no single proof that we continue cyber attacks. wh
