Where We Live: The Diplomatic Dance with Afghanistan and Pakistan

Ambassador Marc Grossman just returned from a trip around the Middle East - gathering support for a “Democratic Afghanistan.”

That meant trips to places like Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar...all seen as key US allies in the region. But a notable absence from this tour was a visit to Pakistan. As a special representative to both Afghanistan and Pakistan, this omission seems to be important. He was told the Pakistani government was still reviewing its relationship with the US.

Today, we’ll talk with Grossman - who was in town for a visit sponsored by the World Affairs Council of CT - about the diplomatic dance around these neighboring countries.
