A nation must think before it acts.
After Withdrawal: How China, Turkey, and Russia Will Respond to the Taliban
About the Event
The American withdrawal from Afghanistan led to the rapid collapse of the Afghan government. The Taliban's rapid takeover has led to questions about how American allies and adversaries will respond. FPRI's Aaron Stein and coauthors Michael Kofman and Yun Sun will discuss how an American ally, Turkey, and two competitors, China and Russia, view the region and what that means for the United States. This event is based on a recent article the three speakers wrote for War on the Rocks, you can read it by clicking here.
