A major international conference is set to begin here in the Netherlands. Delegations from around the world are coming to discuss the NATO and U.S.-led mission in Afghanistan. Chief among the discussion will be President Obama's suggestion of negotiations with 'moderate' members of the Taliban. But would the return of any members of the Taliban be good for the rights of Afghans? Fawzia Koofi, an Minister of Parliament from the province of Badakshan, doesn't think so. Koofi was a promising medical student when the Taliban regime came to power. She lost her right to education and freedom of movement.
Since the overthrow of the Taliban, she's witnessed the return of rights to women and children. She's loathe to see a return to the Taliban style of governing for her two daughters, who would face the same loss of freedom and education that she did.
But life as a politician, and a female politician, in Afghanistan is not easy. Listen to Fawzia Koofi explain the setbacks she's faced to provide Afghans with their rights, her reasoning for the dangerous public life she's chosen, and the letter to her daughters she keeps in a cupboard in case she is killed or kidnapped.
More than seven years after the removal of the Taliban, Kabul has become a city that seems to be increasingly under siege. The increasing violence has led to increasing barriers between ordinary people and those who have arrived to reconstruct their country.
