Blinken: “The Taliban Are Not Permitting the Charter Flights to Depart” ….But It’s Totally Not a Hostage Situation (VIDEO)

Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Wednesday admitted Americans are being held hostage by the Taliban.

“The Taliban are not permitting the charter flights to depart,” Blinken said during a press conference in Germany.

But according to the Biden Admin and the stenographers in the media, it’s totally not a hostage situation.

Blinken also admitted there are “limits” to what the Biden Admin can do to help the hostages without “personnel on the ground, without an airport with normal security procedures in place.”

Blinken said Americans stuck in Afghanistan were not allowed to leave because they lacked valid travel documents – he also said this on Tuesday.

Biden left Americans behind enemy lines.

As reported earlier, the Taliban is holding six planes filled with Americans and Afghan SIVs HOSTAGE in Northern Afghanistan.

The planes cannot take off unless the Taliban clears them, which can easily be handled with a telephone call. Our heroes and the people they rescued are sitting ducks, hostages of the Taliban, who operate the airport at Mazar-i-Sharif.

The State Department is not helping these Americans, who are at the mercy of the Taliban.
