Two years after the withdrawal of American and allied forces and the return of the Taliban to power, Afghanistan faces multiple crises while the world’s attention has moved on. Amid an economic collapse, life has become a nightmare for women and girls, as well as for ethnic and religious minorities. Terrorist groups are active on Afghan soil again. In Washington, foreign policy experts still debate whether the United States made a mistake in withdrawing from Afghanistan. Yet the withdrawal has hurt US prestige and seems to have encouraged Russia and China to test US willingness to defend its allies in other parts of the world.

Join Hudson Institute for a conversation on these issues and more with Ambassador Adela Raz, former ambassador of Afghanistan to the US and visiting fellow at Hudson Institute, and Ambassador Husain Haqqani, former ambassador of Pakistan to the US and director of Hudson Institute’s South and Central Asia program.
