Washington: When foreign forces concluded their withdrawal from Kabul, the United States said that they had entered the “new chapter” involvement with Afghanistan.
The US completed the withdrawal of his troops from Afghanistan on August 30, ending one of the longest wars.
Within a few weeks, US forces and coalitions evacuated more than 123,000 civilians from Afghanistan and slightly more than 6,000 of them were US citizens.
“And our work continues, as you heard from Secretary (Anthony Blinken).
The new chapter of American involvement with Afghanistan has begun,” said a spokesman for the US Department of Department in the press briefing.
Prices say that the US will continue to facilitate safe trips from people from Afghanistan, including doing everything they can to support the reopening of Kabul airport.
“We are focused and clear-eyed when we entered this new chapter with Afghanistan,” he added.
Prices say that the US will manage their diplomacy for the way forward with Afghanistan through Doha.
When our troops and allies completed their withdrawal from Afghanistan, a resolution was passed by the UN Security Council on Monday, which requires the Taliban to respect their commitment to let free people leave Afghanistan.
“And yesterday, UNSC passed the resolution, the resolution described the responsibility, thus laying the foundation for other mechanisms to hold Taliban accountability if they did not follow up,” said a spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The US has made contact with Americans who are still on land in Afghanistan and give them information about how to keep in touch after withdrawal of US troops, he added.
“We are in touch with Americans in Afghanistan who decide to stay there or who cannot be evacuated,” Price said.
He said nearly 100 Americans remained in Afghanistan and Washington would continue to relate to them when exploring options for their evacuation.
“We are exploring every potential option to bring Americans abroad who want to depart,” said the price.
