April 11, 2014--The Middle East Institute's Louis R. Hughes Lecture Series is pleased to present Ali A. Jalali (National Defense University), Andrew Wilder (United States Institute of Peace), Amanullah Ghilzai (Senior AfPak Journalist), and Amb. Omar Samad (New America Foundation) for a panel discussion on Afghanistan's presidential election and its implications for the country's political future. Afghanistan's April 5 presidential elections have the potential to be the most consequential in the country's recent history, determining not just who emerges as the successor to Hamid Karzai, but also the economic and political viability of the Afghan state that emerged in 2001.
