U.S. Goals in Afghanistan

“The rubber will really begin hitting the road this week regarding President Obama's new Afghanistan strategy. Having provided few details about how the United States is going to help establish a credible Afghan government or get Pakistan to stop supporting and providing safe havens to the Afghan Taliban, the onus will be on Washington to demonstrate that the enormously ambitious stated goals can be realized,” says Asia Society Executive Vice President Jamie Metzl.

Jamie is in New York. To arrange an interview, please contact the Asia Society communications department at 212-327-9271 or [email protected].
