Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Monday spoke with his counterparts in China and Russia about the security situation in Afghanistan.
The calls come as both Beijing and Moscow have signaled an openness to recognizing and working with the Taliban, which over the weekend swiftly ousted the Western-backed government in Kabul.
Blinken spoke separately with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi about developments in Afghanistan, including the security situation and both countries' respective efforts to bring U.S. and Chinese citizens to safety, State Department spokesperson Ned Price said in a statement.

Stolen election, stole governance.
They already own Blinky.
This is desperation by stupid libtards trying to pull their heads out of their butts. Watch and learn.
Retired Navy SEAL calls for resignations of top Biden admin officials: ‘They’ve abjectly failed’!
Derrick Van Orden says Afghanistan crisis shows ‘broken’ national security system
Top officials are facing backlash after the Biden administration’s announcement to withdraw all U.S. troops from Afghanistan by Sept. 11 opened a path for the Taliban to take control of the country.
In an interview on “Fox & Friends,” retired Navy SEAL and Wisconsin congressional candidate Derrick Van Orden called on Biden’s top diplomatic advisers to resign, saying they failed in their duty to advise the president.
DERRICK VAN ORDEN: I did two tours in Afghanistan in 2003 and 2009, and, unfortunately, the Biden administration is redefining the word incompetence.
You’ve got Secretary Blinken and Secretary Austin. They need to tender their resignations right now.
The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Milley, he needs to go peel potatoes in the galley for about a month and then resign also.
These folks’ primary duty is to advise the president of the United States on diplomatic and military matters and they’ve abjectly failed that. The national security architecture of the United States of America is clearly broken right now.
And this is playing out in real time. People can’t pretend like this isn’t happening. We truly understand now that the emperor has no clothes. As a matter of fact, we don’t even know if he’s wearing clothes right now because he has disappeared from the public.
The president of the United States, in clearly the most dramatic foreign policy crisis in the United States in a very, very long time, probably since Sept. 11, 2001, has disappeared. Jen Psaki has taken the week off too. This is unacceptable.

The Chinese and the Russians are having a party right now over this week pathetic, demented American “leader”.
Oh happy days!
Bingo.
As the CCP diplomats told Biden’s team earlier this year “you are in no position of strength.”
And the Russians and Chinese haven’t stopped laughing.
This was my first thought too! See my posts from yesterday.
Russia and China will carve up the earth together. Party like it’s 1939.
Where is Lloyd Austin in all this?
For a very loud arrogant Defense Secretary, he’s been missing during the biggest military crises for years.
So blinken is president for a day?
I think Blinkey is one of those fools at State who RUINED the department, much like Wray at FBI, so to see him rant about anything of substance makes me nauseous. He helped destroy the State Department because he always thought he could do a better job than Pompeo and anyone else.
A real BLINKEN CREEP.
Collusion.
Do we have enough pallets of cash? How quickly CAN he surrender to Russia and China? Perhaps he has a surrender plan! We can only hope.
Did they slap Blinken around again, kick sand in his face, and make him promise more cash payoffs?
Can you believe less than a thousand (3 ?) Stooges could take
down our nation this quickly.
Three Branches, a few governors and mayors, a few NGOs, and some leftist appointees.
That’s all it took.
He is making sure Biden gets his 10%.
I don’t think the Russians or Chinese were able to talk much. Too busy laughing until they choke.
