Mr Hansjoerg Kretschmer, Head of the EC Delegation to Afghanistan, and Mr Abdul Hameed Mubarez, Afghan historian and poet, draw a parallel between the conditions at the end of thirty years of war and civil strife in Europe in 1945 and Afghanistan today.

The footage from the Second World war and early years of the European Communities are take from a documentary produced by the EC audiovisual services. The interviews were recorded in Kabul in March 2007 under a project commissioned by the Delegation of the European Commission to Afghanistan.
