In addition, the debate over the nature of #Afghanistan’s government and constitutional distribution of powers was reinvigorated by a recent op-ed in the @nytimes by @AhmadMassoudoff. #AFGPanel 4/n https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/14/opinion/afghanistan-peace-talks.html …

For the next hour, I have the distinct honor of hosting a discussion on these issues with some impressive panelists. We’ll discuss the US-#Taliban agreement, the nature of governance in #Afghanistan today, & the impact of #COVID19, along w/answering your Qs. #AFGPanel 5/n

Before I turn it over to the panelists, here’s how we’ll be doing the discussion: each panelist will begin with an opening tweet thread—I’ll link to those in this thread. After their opening remarks, I’ll moderate a Q&A. #AFGPanel 9/n

PLEASE DM ME YOUR QUESTIONS so I can pose them to the panel in an ordered way. If you reply directly in this or the panelists’ threads, we may not respond. Also, please be civil & respectful in your Qs/comments. #AFGPanel 10/n

With that, I’ll ask @Afghan_Policy to kick off the discussion with his opening thread! #AFGPanel 11/n
