That includes 2,500 Afghan support staff as well as human rights activists, lawyers and others whom the government sees being at risk if they remain in the country after the Taliban seized Kabul.

Why do liberal Caucasians in government think they need to rescue everybody else? Angela should do this personally but not drag her country into it.
