"Closely following the very worrying situation in #Afghanistan. Now that all military left the country, coordinating within government on support of @belgiumdefence on the questions of the AFGH tolks [Afghan peace talks in Doha] and remaining Belgian citizens on the ground, in close contact with our international partners," the minister wrote on Twitter.
