The Western military alliance has called on the Taliban to allow people being evacuated to leave Afghanistan, and vowed that the allies will remain in "close coordination" while operations continue.
"We call on those in positions of authority in Afghanistan to respect and facilitate their safe and orderly departure, including through Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul," said NATO's 30 member countries in a joint declaration, adding that the military alliance would maintain a presence in the country "as long as evacuation operations continue".
The military alliance halted its own mission in Afghanistan in May after the United States decided to withdraw its troops, but still has up to 800 civilian staff helping run Kabul airport. Several countries have mounted missions to airlift their nationals and local allies to safety, but Stoltenberg warned the allies must work together and the Taliban must cooperate.

Merkel and Macron had a meeting with Putin about Afghanistan. What would be really rich would be for Putin to issue a statement demanding the Taliban allow evacuations.

Thank God for UK and FRANCE.
Our French and British protecting and rescuing u.s. citizens the Biden Regime were leaving to die horrid slavery and or death.
That’s because Biden keeps answering the TV remote.
.
I am shocked China,Russia let alone other rogue states don't simply do what they will with easy pickings. Our military and State Department are worthless/helpless to do anything. Imagine trying to talk to Biden in Delaware about a WMD event or Taiwan being invaded.
Bet they are shaking over that ‘urging. The taliban must be terrified now
also, right here in America, we lose likely even more lives and way more money every year due to illegals. When all the costs are added up that illegals cost us, both direct costs and Indirect (like the money spent by victims who have to go to therapy, lor their lost wages as they lose their husband to an illegal etc)
The estimate back a few decades ago was between 400 billion and 600 billion per year. That cost is likely over 1 trillion per year now. Thr left declared war on the working class here In The states by allowing the violent illegal aliens to pour across our borders to kill. Maim, destroy many 1000’s of peoples lives every year. Nearly 75% of illegals do not work and get government $$, and they are draining our economy dry.
This works perfectly for the Taliban. A-N-Y-O-N-E heading in the direction of the airport, particularly Afghanis, will be stopped, interrogated, and most likely shot or hauled away! This way the Tally do not need to go house-to-house to search. What a perfect gig!
And it likely finally dawned on Biden and ilk that this obvious outcome would look abso,absolutely horrible politically, so they are now desperately p,eading with the tally to please play nice, at ,east until other nations are able to get our soldiers and civilian’s out.
It is absolutely mind numbing how Inept this faux administration is. What a collosal embarrassment he is and danger to our own citizens ther and here as well he is.
Pretty please with sugar on it…
Just heard Biden brag about US forces rescuing French nationals from t heir embassy.
Gosh, I’m sure they are really afraid of NATO.
