Welcome to Episode 78 of The Afghanistan Project, where we cover all topics related to two decades of war in Afghanistan, and the fallout of our Afghanistan withdrawal.
Today’s guest is Art Conaghan, a public affairs specialist in the UK who was a Parliamentary Chief of Staff for an MP in Northampton, outside of London, at the time of the withdrawal from Afghanistan. This is probably one of several episodes that Art could fill with stories about the groups he helped as he effectively became a human smuggler in the midst of the withdrawal.
In this episode, Art talks about how he was drawn into helping Afghans as the country fell under Taliban control over the summer of 2021. We discuss many of the groups he attempted to – or successfully – aided as well as the means that he used to secure assistance for various groups of Afghans.
Art also discusses the impact that the evacuation effort has had on his life.
