Any Chance That Any Of Our Allies Can Aid The U.S. In Airlifting Afghans Out Of The Country?.... [View all]

Certainly the U.S. has allies. I would think that these allies have transport planes that can be utilized to aid in getting the people out of danger in Afghanistan.

Why aren't we asking them for help? Why aren't they volunteering to help us in this mission?

I would think if any of them were in a similar situation - that the U.S. would come to their aid. Shouldn't it work the other way around as well?
