American people have finally spoke it around here as i see it one americas got talent all because more dangerous the world is looking at us with a mixture of sadness and. With the election behind us the Republican Party dumptruck the weekly take on us politics and i think thats the bottom. I am for me ok guild watching a packed episode off the street and we have 3 stories one shot that we took iraq afghanistan and u. S. Troops leaving by january politics in peru where can you believe that in a single week peru had seen president s and a memorial that is under the ocean of the under the Atlantic Ocean moralizing enslaved africans more not a just a little bits as you can see as a lot to talk about a lot to get if you want to comment up to it so i guess you have to be quick on new chief but you know what to do jump into the comments section and the cheek to be part of the discussion so we start in afghanistan where im generally 20212000 u. S. Troops would have been who would have left what could possibly be the impact of this have a look have a listen. More and more when the foreigners left they did not leave equipment like weapons vehicles and other military equipment that we needed we are an urgent need of heavy weapons like artillery mortars cannons and ammunition if we have all these heavy artillery with us we will be able to defend our country in a better way. To base commanders says the taliban often attacks the base from the mountains day in the night the base is only 11 kilometers from the border with pakistan from where he says taliban fighters can slip into the area. Its good to have you on the street. Is here you are needed. Hello everyone orders alarm a match i am from afghanistan and i am leading a Research Think tank in kabul. Im social scientists by training. Also how do we know if we were in afghanistan that u. S. Troops a big contingent of u. S. Troops were preparing to leave what we know that might be different. Well as a matter of fact for the majority of afghan population nothing radiates the friend because afghans have in the main a charge yet or main victim of this war or from Younger Generation to all there are 2 children everyone is affected by this war and in the present talks troops and the presence of thousands hundreds and thousands of troops we have the same situation so their departure for an afghan or an average afghan is not going to change the story however the president sought International Military forces it is a balancing force within the region it gives afghanistan a little more. Special authority in comparison to its Nuclear Nuclear neighbors like caucus on like iran or like india and so forth. So im just looking at this headline here and this is from mid november u. S. Announces plans to cut troop levels in afghanistan and iraq now this my dears me jason the troop levels this is not new but the idea of doing it literally moments before theres going to be a new u. S. President that seems strange from the u. S. Side from the afghanistan side how do you pack that. Well there were a reef so its sheer afghans if like that. That the military intervention in afghanistan in 2001 was related to the elections back to the u. S. Elections the military really draw on particularly the u. S. Withdrawal from afghanistan and again in 19 or 20 years on its again related to the american elections so we understand that there has been a rush there has been a sort of a pressure by taxpayers by those certain families of the soldiers and why our children where our sons are go or doctors are going to be killed there and we understand thats but without such massive level of investment made on afghanistan to just and leave its not the responsible kind of arrangement in relations with the country so really im also a advocate for it was a response about withdrawal where achieve some basic arrangements could be could be place like the interview you have shown are what worries us as afghans is a chaos and we are all them and unfortunately being from the our generation to remember the ninetys when the soviets have left afghanistan we fall into a summer war or regional war and we can see that now if that such kind of withdrawal is not done in a responsible way and i graduate in a way that enables the afghan state to stand on its own feet it can cause and far less back and push us back to the same horrors of the past. Its another story that caught my eye and. Since skinner now desired outcome we framed as an alarming pattern 2nd afghan journalist killed in a week this is a us day he was a radio journalist as an International Radio journalist and we also caught some video of im just going to win because this is really disturbing he was killed in a car bomb say you see that destroyed car and then you hear relatives talking about his assassination has had a listen. I want to try to break medievals door to get a date here out of this car not to try for a while we managed to get him out of the car he was alive then he died it was wont to loto going to the emergency so. If you Pay Attention to news out of afghanistan he will see instances of violence like this all of the time is there an uptick. As something changed or is not something that you would expect to see that journalists are being blown up unfortunately. In the most recent in the month of november that the new york style you are the 2nd your no less sense he was killed and assassinated in Helmand Province in kabul we had another incident involving another journalist so are either mysteriously caroled or indicted of something reckon incidental so unfortunately these civilian casualties is on the right hands despite the u. S. Taleban deal in february this year we havent seen any changes this year has been whole of stories some of these stories are going viral like this young arab good student similar to the journalist that you have mentioned i yank student in his early twentys hardly. Remember reminding everyone not to forget to smile at the sight on the challenges and problems that we are facing and this young man lost his name was my mother i hope he lost his life in in Public University attack we have girls we have a sister and brother who are sitting and having breakfast they didnt even know they were not even out of their house just sitting and aware of the worlds ending for them to end thats moment they were having breakfast in the morning and labelled graduates of university very well unfortunately and killed in iraq its attack so the violence is becoming part of everyday life in afghanistan there is a literal level of trust in terms of you know who is going to save you who is going to protect you know their s. S. Nations targeting you know. Young students journalists are the prime targets civilians and particularly for example the aid Workers Community the religious scholars so we see 3 forms of targeted attacks being organized lately against people who are active in the media against religious scholars because there is a fear of our from more there it islam that a majority of afghans are following yet and also there is fear of one thats rights and human rights and human rights because that category is another one. And a very talented girl named fatah maha little lost her life in a in a matter and magnetic i. E. D. Attack a few months ago i was just some 3 working as a human rights activist as a human rights officer in the commission of human rights so when we see beneath kind of targets sadly these are all signs of things not not changing and in both directions we see more violence despite the file and everyone in the streets are equally speaking about peace but. The reality is our piece of. The animal reports from you now are the urine on the civilian casualties is also highlighting that 31. 00 person think attacks in one part some off knee so casualties are comprising children parents you know what mensa women and children are also not safe from this violence and my descent is very hard to me as an afghan who was born in afghanistan lived most of my life as an afghan in afghanistan or as an issue war machine i find it very difficult to explain to the future generation what its for is about who are we fighting and for what reason and lets every day sadly we are most in reichs. As a question to you when you cheer the end people are curious because always i think sometimes there is this for tea for people hearing about afghanistan in terms of the news its almost like they dont hear it they dont see it anymore because this so much violence and conflict and i want to share some of these thoughts with you and im really ok you do disagree vehemently so i am an f. Is it going to be a transitional process how is the troops going to hand over power to the afghan army what is the plan process for removing troops so how is this going to happen how do you have 2000 u. S. Troops leave the country is there family have what happens. Exactly lets just watch me are fearing out there are 2500 troops that are planned to remain. To be withdrawn from afghanistan in addition to the u. S. Troops there is also a nato base in afghanistan in kabul at least the result of supports and they have a very clear mandate off training and mentoring the Afghan NationalSecurity Forces but benito forces there is a lot of support which is also troops from different 7 countries who have been allies of the u. S. If u. S. Troops were drawn not just to careen and in terms of you know supplies at this particular base that the supporting after violent Capacity Building supports to our military forces in afghanistan they will not be able to survive in the absence of the u. S. Troops this is why we have seen the news that their general secretary of nato is inviting president elect joe biden a 2 didnt to nato to collectively make a decision on how to arrange this exact unfortunately in the way the media is forced gets a probably just was because of the election season and the United States it is like troops withdraw and thats so its 0 brits on the ground if you ask me as an afghan i am more happy more than happy to actually hear that if troops 0 troops on the ground is going to end while until my country its going to end so the side bombings assassinations raining bombardments off civilians that is happening as well. Why would i not celebrated i would be the 1st one to celebrate it but the reality its more complicated than that is thats where we as a weak states are a prime make them our regional and global ringback conflicts countries find their wars were the lives of our young and old are targeted and we just desire and seek the assistance of people around the world to to to ask their governments to Pay Attention and to help us in this meaning less violence in conflict. So there was something you want to do and this is who is the hardest question to ask you in this was we could talk for an entire show about the terrible things that happened in afghanistan and we would never talk about the story of joy and how and everyday life that never gets a never get mentioned so i have ha i have 2 minutes i bet this will be the team is our audience will remember if you tell us the right story what story do you want to tell that takes away from salutes and transitions and violence and cobhams and tells us what it is like to live in afghanistan when there is hope and joy this is actually i was going to end with you know there is violence there is horror that we are experiencing but lets remember something that im martel a young martyred my mother i had has told us in some instances how did all these challenges threats not get the smiling and this is what our cricket players are giving us a drawing in a smile in our faces we have the best cricket team and the worlds best players out there and they are really its really like coming out of ashes afghanistan has a group of girls of our history afghanistan is rising on the field on technology and we have young girls from from here as problems mostly working and the technology and Technology Parts of the robotic girls there is a massive intervention a little goes yes i would love to have you havent seen them oh i dont know if you ask them what they are they are amazing they are all working underground so they are they i would love to have no mine you invited girls here watching the invited. Fantastic i cant wait to see them on the stream giving best story and then a story on itself is giving this message to those who are still believing to use terrorism and violence as a we you are wrong child to invest you know hype in a strange and best im Better Things out of them telling people because look weve been a child left and right our young is are dying but the classmates the friends of those are not surrendering so thats the story of afghanistan now and we hope to see a change was our left thank you so much for talking to us about afghanistan troop of ritual what life is like in afghanistan and simplistic when alice says and some happiness all in the same time really for me thank you very much indeed thanks for being on the stream today my pleasure my pleasure i take you youre so welcome im going to take you from afghanistan to peru where in a single week peru has had 3 president s young people who are taking to the streets they are asking for every some earlier we spoke to martin and this is what he told us. Earlier with the election of francisco sagacity as transitory president of peru young people expect total reforms return to what came before does not seem to be an option for the bicentennial generation a good percentage of them demand a change of constitution especially the economic chapter they also suggest a Police Restructuring and above all a frontal and aggressive fight against corruption that has greatly harms the country. Or. I dont care how great to have you on the street tell everybody who know you are and what needed. Hello i am your eyelids and i i made. With the correspondent i mean newspaper. I am a writer. Its so good to have a you have been doing your job so many years and im just wondering if ever seen any like 3 president s in a week how would you explain that to the International Community to last remove us what is going on improve right now. Well you still really difficult to to explain to the international the ins. When you have to is when you have so many. An economy very strong but in politics never never was source so messed up we have 3 president s on a week but in the since 2016 we have 4 president s because since. We can have president we have 4 president s and this and the economy it was very strong we have a lot of well have inflation so for nobody can and understand what happened in that country that kind of country so i think we have had big crack on 2007 thing when. I see this like a crack not a big crack when theyre already in and then youre a in a. Clash because leaders that always have control or in the judiciary stands and their particular office doesnt have the power anymore because leva had never had to use some massive amounts in case of gripes from the. Company or the rest it is coast or theyll be theres only theres. A bit about it which is good and all the leaders that have the power to do. Leave behind albeit in a can say shant cason the power anymore so the news doesnt crush. Opens and new carol because. We young people thats inspect nothing but i really have a fight against corruption so the president might be scottish who are the successful tax structure off between. If. They are the moment and and support all the work for. The cases where he do that all the political. That they see in day they where with ricky in a day or once to once to suck from the power that is when all that warrant all is started tobys got a has in the power to 2 years and 8 months only and when she was when he was out at last and impeachment in congress. And the protest. In emacs but rather in all the country because that people recognize that they dont do because again is a corruption they recognize that they want to they want to do they want to have their new day or regime to stay laid out. Where reese got a say if you will if you would like challenge. A president. To destress the warriors there they are aware power. Yes new talking about the protesters on the street i want to bring in a protesters voice into this conversation and this was his that was in dilema improve and he was talking about how this movement was started by young people and it was invigorating older people so this is what he said a couple of days ago but you know.
