afghanistan, really trying to highlight that despite the fact that the end days were very messy in that country the bigger picture is that the country is now on a path where we are not engrained in war in that country. >> kylie, once again secretary blinken was unable to give specific numbers when it comes to the special immigrant visa applications. isn't that a tangible number? why don't they know exactly how many sivs there are that still need and want to come here? >> yeah, i mean the secretary was clear in saying the state department is working on it but fundamentally, no, they didn't give an answer in terms of how many of those afghans that have come to the united states were already in the siv process, how many of those special immigrant visa applicants, those are afghans that worked alongside the u.s. over the last 20 years, are still in afghanistan and trying to get out. he didn't have those answers on hand because, frankly, those numbers are in the thousands and the department is working through that crush of numbers.
