Such networks effectively constituted the Afghan state and became an integral part of the of the U.S.-led military intervention and the internationally directed state building project.<\/p>\n<p>Sharan argues that politics and statehood in Afghanistan, in particular over the last two decades, including the ultimate collapse of the government in August 2021, are best understood in terms of the dynamics of internal political networks, through which warlords and patronage networks came to capture and control key sectors within the state and the economy, including mining, banking, and illicit drugs as well as elections and other political processes.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the book offers a way to explain what it was that the international community as well as the Afghan elites in power, got so wrong, and how Afghanistan came full circle with the Taliban returning to power almost two decades after it was toppled in the US-led 2001 intervention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chair:<\/strong> Torunn Wimpelmann<\/p>\n<p><strong>Panel: <\/strong>Timor Shahran and Andrew Watkins<\/p>\n<p>Registration: <a class=\"nectar-button n-sc-button medium accent-color regular-button\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/zubarus.com\/signup.php?eventId=4157\" data-color-override=\"false\" data-hover-color-override=\"false\" data-hover-text-color-override=\"#fff\"><span>Click here<\/span><\/a>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/afghanistankomiteen.no\/arrangement\/afghanistan-week-2022-norwegian-intelligence-in-afghanistan-how-much-did-they-know-2\/\"><strong>Norwegian Intelligence in Afghanistan: How Much Did They Know? <\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n<h5>16:30 \u2013 17:30 CET, 19:30 \u2013 20:30 AFT<\/h5>\n<h5><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prio.org\/about\/howtofind\">PRIO<\/a>, Philosophers Hall<\/h5>\n<p>The Norwegian Godal Committee from 2017 stated that &#8221;the support the Intelligence Service provided to the Special Forces through the National Intelligence Support Team (NIST) was the most comprehensive and resource-intensive part of the service&#8217;s involvement in Afghanistan.&#8221;\u00a0The data feed into the targeted killings that were an integral part of the Western military operations.<\/p>\n<p>Frank Bakke Jensen stated that Norway is not responsible for whether data collected by us is used for the killing of civilians.

What is the current status, and what has been learnt from the experience of the year since the Taliban took power in Kabul? What are the opportunities for engaging with Afghanistan\u2019s citizens \u2013 on anything from rule of law to economic development \u2013 while bypassing the Taliban regime?<\/p>\n<p>Relationships between the Taliban and other countries have become complicated, but while many Western countries maintain strict sanctions and limit their engagement, many countries in the region are gradually rebuilding relations to the Afghanistan\u2019s de-facto rulers. An increasingly conflictual geopolitical situation globally has its mirror image in the how various countries and regions relate to Afghanistan.<\/p>\n<p>The Taliban\u2019s rule violates most existent international norms. The violation of human rights, not the least women\u2019s rights, the failure to deliver basic welfare, the dismantlement of education is extremely problematic. It also constitutes a paradox, in that it both implies increasing international resistance to work with the Taliban, and a mounting need for external assistance.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, what the Taliban took over was a highly aid-dependent country, and the human consequences of the military withdrawal \u2013 and the ensuing reductions in assistance \u2013 have been grave. Various countries are developing a variety of means for providing an impetus to Afghanistan\u2019s civil society, its welfare sector and to its economy.<\/p>\n<p>In this focal event for the 2022 Afghanistan Week, we will hear the reflections on the current state of affairs by the Norwegian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Anniken Huitfeldt, followed by a panel.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chair:<\/strong> Kristian Berg Harpviken<\/p>\n<p><strong>Introduction:\u00a0<\/strong>Liv Kj\u00f8lseth<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening remarks: <\/strong>Anniken Huitfeldt<\/p>\n<p><strong>Panellists: <\/strong>Masood Karokhail, Shah Gul Rezaye, Roxanne Sharpour and Terje Watterdal<\/p>\n<p><strong>Closing remarks: <\/strong>H.E.
