Abandoned Afghan allies share fears of life under Taliban

Season 2025 Episode 248 | 6m 46s

As the American war in Afghanistan ended four years ago, thousands of Afghans who had worked with the United States, and believed in the American-led war against the Taliban, were left behind. Many of them are still there after the Trump administration suspended relocation programs. Nick Schifrin spoke with two men in Afghanistan about their fears and dark memories of the Taliban takeover.
