Blinken, Maas meet to talk Afghanistan crisis
United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken and German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas met on Wednesday to discuss the political crisis in Afghanistan and the evacuation of people eligible to leave from that country.
“It’s particularly good to be back in Germany and see firsthand here today the remarkable partnership that we have, including the work that we’re doing together in the evacuation of people from Afghanistan, and the work we’re going to be doing shortly with many other countries to talk about the way forward on Afghanistan,” Blinken said.
Earlier in the day, Maas noted that the fact the Taliban formed the government without any other political groups is not giving “reason for optimism.”
