Pakistan/Afghanistan: Is Stability Possible?

An Off the Record Discussion with Dr. Peter Lavoy and Steve Coll

Rising violence in Afghanistan paired with a Pakistani army campaign against militants in the wild badlands of Pakistan begs the question: is stability in this increasingly treacherous region possible? If so, what constitutes a ‘stability’ the United States can accept? If not, what should the United States’ involvement be, militarily, economically, and diplomatically?

Please join New America Foundation president Steve Coll and Dr. Peter Lavoy, Chairman of the National Intelligence Council, for a special off the record event, tackling these and other tough questions facing the intelligence community and policymakers.
