Three years ago, the Taliban returned to power in Kabul after America’s disastrous abandonment of Afghanistan. Since then, the situation in the country has deteriorated considerably. Afghanistan faces an acute humanitarian crisis and has once again become a haven for transnational terror groups, especially al-Qaeda. Additionally, the human rights of women and ethnic minority groups are under constant threat. 

Please join Hudson for an event with the leader of the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan, Ahmad Massoud. Following his virtual remarks, an in-person panel of experts will discuss the resistance against the Taliban and the future of Afghanistan.
