In a March 23rd article for the National Interest, Amb. Khalilzad reflected on recent steps by the Afghan and U.S. governments to avoid the pitfalls of the American troop withdrawal from Iraq. Amb. Khalilzad recognized both governments for being committed to success in Afghanistan and offered additional suggestions for how to ensure that the withdrawal of U.S. troops does not leave Afghanistan vulnerable to the same violence that has now engulfed Iraq.

From 2007 to 2009, Amb. Khalilzad served as U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations.
