The United States will work with any government in Afghanistan, including representatives of the radical Taliban movement (banned in Russia), to protect its citizens and ensure that they can leave the country. This was stated by the representative of the Pentagon, the head of the Central Command of the US Armed Forces (USCENTCOM), General Kenneth Mackenzie, RIA Novosti reports.

According to him, Washington has a wide range of levers of pressure on the new authorities in Kabul. The American general stressed that, without a doubt, the United States will use these levers in full.

Earlier, McKenzie said that the United States had completed an operation to evacuate people from Afghanistan. The US military department summarized that the US military has left the Islamic Republic. "With the withdrawal of troops, a twenty-year mission ends," the military commander said. He added that the acting ambassador to Afghanistan, Ross Wilson, left the country on the last evacuation flight.

On August 15, Taliban militants entered Kabul and declared full control over the territory of Afghanistan. They also announced that they will soon proclaim the creation of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.
