Ashraf Ghani

In ending the war in Afghanistan, the U.S. belittled and sidelined its partner in favor of engaging with the enemy. The result can hardly be called a success.

None of Washington’s errors in Afghanistan was greater in scope than the peace agreement signed with the Taliban in February 2020.

One of the more damning reports as the Afghan government collapsed was that President Ghani fled with a helicopter stuffed with cash. That was unlikely.

Kabul’s fall to the Taliban is more the result of the Afghan government’s ineptitude and corruption than the Taliban’s strength.

The political situation in Afghanistan remains deeply uncertain.

The uneasy neighbors are trying to turn the corner from a relationship marked by suspicion and downright hostility toward a partnership for peace in the region.

Amid the push to start talks, a recent bombing illustrates that Afghanistan's security problems are bigger than just the Taliban.

To avoid another political crisis in Afghanistan, we need to draw lessons from the National Unity Government (NUG).

Two months after Ashraf Ghani and Abdullah Abdullah each declared themselves president, the rivals have arrived at a deal.

The Taliban’s decision to reject Ghani’s intra-Afghan dialogue team should not come as a surprise.

The Taliban have not claimed responsibility for the latest attacks which Kabul says they carried out on Afghan forces.

Despite political infighting in Kabul, the government and Taliban are discussing the first step in their peace process.
