BLINKEN: “Since August 31st of last year, we have helped about 975 American citizens who wished to leave Afghanistan do so. As we speak, Americans who identify themselves as American citizens who identify themselves to us, who are in Afghanistan, some of whom had been there since the withdrawal, some of whom went back to Afghanistan, there are about -- we're in contact with about 175, 44 of them are ready to leave and we are working to effectuate their departure.”
