Remember how I wrote yesterdaythat the next round of Afghanistan/Pakistan/U.S. trilateral talks would be held in Washington on May 5 to 7? According to a release from the Afghanistan embassy, I was off by a day. Here’s a list of some Afghan officials coming to town:
  • Second Vice President Mohammad Karim Khalili (April 20-22)
  • Minister of Finance Dr. Omar Zakhilwal (April 21-26)
  • Governor of the Central Bank Mr. Abdul Qadeer Fitrat (April 21-26)
  • Minister of Commerce and Industry Mr. Wahidullah Shahrani (May 7-8)
  • Minister of Foreign Affairs Dr. Rangin D. Spanta (May 6-8)
  • Minister of Defense General Abdul Rahim Wardak (May 6-8)
  • Minister of Interior Mohammad Hanif Atmar (May 6-8)
  • Minister of Mines and Energy Mr. Mohammad Ibrahim Adel (May 12)
And then the embassy says that Spanta, Wardak and Atmar will “join their Pakistani counterparts and U.S. officials for a second round of trilateral discussions on the new U.S. strategy towards Afghanistan and Pakistan.” So, off by a day. I’ll just be over in the corner picking up the pieces of my career.
