Re: Parliament to be recalled re: Taliban in Afghanistan
Not a good look.
Quote:
Ministers never made key call to help stranded Afghan interpreters
The government is coming under pressure after it emerged ministers did not make a phone call about evacuating Afghan translators who had helped UK forces.
It had said Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab was too busy to speak to his Afghan counterpart, with a junior minister being asked to do so instead.
But the Foreign Office now says it "was not possible" to arrange the call before the Afghan government collapsed.
