USIP Senior Study Group Report Launch
As the terrorist threats emanating from Afghanistan and Pakistan - such as the recent ISIS-K attack in Moscow - continue to evolve, they could pose increased risks to U.S. national security interests as well as international security. USIP convened a senior study group to evaluate U.S. counterterrorism policy options following withdrawal from Afghanistan. The group’s final report highlights how a terrorist incident in or emanating from Afghanistan or Pakistan could trigger a regional or international crisis, undermine U.S. alliances, and derail attention from strategic competition. To avoid such a situation, the report offers preventive, sustainable measures that preserve national security interests without taking focus away from global strategic competition.
Join USIP for the launch of the senior study group’s final report. The conversation will look at lessons learned from 20 years of U.S. counterterrorism efforts in Afghanistan and Pakistan as well as examine a forward looking, cost-effective and sustainable approach for U.S. counterterrorism policy.
