the former us president george w bush has criticised president biden�*s decision to withdraw us troops from afghanistan — stating he believes the consequences are going to be "unbelievably bad". mr bush initially led america into afghanistan in late 2001 after 9/11 attacks on america. here's what the former president had to say to german television. the progress that could be made for young girls and women in afghanistan, it's unbelievable how that society changed from the brutality of the taliban. and now all of a sudden — sadly — i'm afraid afghan women and girls are going to suffer unspeakable harm. is it a mistake to withdraw? you know, i think it is, yeah. ithink... because i think the consequences are going to be unbelievably bad. and...i'm sad. laura and i spent a lot of time with afghan women and. . .and they're scared. and i think about all the interpreters and people that help not only us troops, but nato troops. and therejust... it seems like they're just going to be left behind to be slaughtered by these very brutal people. the warning from former president bush comes

it's good to have you with us. why has the region seen this sharp increase that it didn't see perhaps in earlier waves? i think there is a mixture of reasons, one is the delta variant is twice as infectious as the original strain that came from wuhan so that's made a lot of difference. there is also an element of complacency because for instance in australia we haven't had any significant transmission for close to a year and that was mainly in melbourne so people are closer together than they were last winter and winter is the time when it really spreads and it is currently winter here, so it is not a surprise we have had outbreaks. the outbreak in sydney is a bit bigger than we would have expected, 250 cases or thereabouts today which by world standards is still very low, but much concern here because we still don't have enough of the population vaccinated.— enough of the population vaccinated. �* ., ., vaccinated. and on that point do ou vaccinated. and on that point do you think _ vaccinated. and on that poi

mariko oi in tokyo for us. president biden has ordered two million american government workers to get vaccinated, or else face compulsory covid testing and restrictions. the administration is struggling with increasing infection rates, while around half the population is refusing a jab. mr biden also offered incentives, including cash, for people who go to be vaccinated. our north america correspondent, david willis told me more. coronavirus cases have risen in all but one state over the last seven days. most of it fuelled by the spread of the delta variant, yet barely 50% of the population here is fully vaccinated. that leaves about 90 million americans who are eligible for a vaccine but have so far chosen not to get one. today, president biden expressed a measure of frustration and desperation, saying this was not political issues, this was nothing political, and he blamed misinformation, social media and other platforms, for the reasons for a lot of people not getting theirjabs. as you mentioned, he announce
