YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Once it became clear that US troops were leaving Afghanistan, the situation on the ground turned to panic. In August of 2021, radio reporter Shirin Jaafari found herself in the middle of the effort to find safe passage for Najiba Noor, a 27-year-old Afghan policewoman who was the target of threats and harassment by the Taliban. In this episode, Jaafari reconnects with Noor and speaks with other people directly involved in the Digital Dunkirk—a mostly-online, grassroots effort to help vulnerable Afghans get to safety.

Why did some of the world’s smartest and most experienced negotiators fail for 20 years to mediate a peace deal in Afghanistan? Find out on “The Afghan Impasse,” a special seven-episode season of The Negotiators from Doha Debates and Foreign Policy. Each episode focuses on a different phase of the talks, brought to us by a veteran reporter who has spent years living and working in the region.
