What does the collapse of American Afghanistan mean for Britain?
As horrific scenes unfold at Kabul airport with the Taliban now in control of Kabul, I wanted to find out what this means for Afghanistan, American credibility and British foreign policy for this week's #BritainDebrief for the Atlantic Council so I spoke Tom Tugendhat, MP, chair of the UK Parliament's foreign affairs select committee.
What does this expose about British weakness and dependence? How has Boris Johnson's government handled the situation? What has this done for American geopolitical standing? And what can the UK now do about refugees?
