Asian area. That is an important part of it as well. Third, i come to a point that is often overlooked. Professor dobbins made an important point in his address and that is to keep focused on the economic aspects of the future of this relationship. Direct investment. These connection between Central Asian economies and south asian economies, the interest of American Companies and some of the important resources that are tore to work with afghans bring to world markets. The economic aspects of this, whether it is the new silk road, or whether it is promoting afghan businesses, i think it is something americans will be interested in being part of this relationship. Something i dont think that needs much detail is to keep ,ocused on counter extremism not just counterterrorism. Afghanistan is still a very important part of that area as well. The region, economic issues, counter extremism, all of these are part of our foundations for a future relationship. Ofin, i thank the organizers this
