CRS – Next Steps in the War in Afghanistan? Issues for Congress

In Brief: Next Steps in the War in Afghanistan? Issues for Congress, Catherine Dale, Specialist in International Security. December 6, 2012

  • “While some basic parameters of U.S. Afghanistan policy appear to be set, particularly in the wake of the U.S. presidential elections, many issues concerning the extent of any further U.S. commitment and the forms it might take, between now and the end of 2014, and beyond 2014, remain unresolved. While troop levels and draw-down curves tend to steal the headlines, more fundamental still is the question of how coherently all the facets of U.S. government engagement in Afghanistan fit together in a single political strategy aimed at bringing the war to some resolution that will protect U.S interests over the longer term. Simultaneously with U.S. decision making, key Allies and partners, and of course the government of Afghanistan and the Afghan people, continue to make choices that shape the realm of the possible.”
