The Pithy Take
Clarissa Ward, CNN’s chief international correspondent, was one of the first Western journalists to report on life under the Taliban in Afghanistan, and was present during the evacuation. In an NPR interview, she explains her experiences reporting, and how drastically things will change for the women of Afghanistan.
She also recounts how her interactions with the Taliban has shifted and the advantages the Taliban had that ultimately led to their victory, as well as genuine moments of human connection and heartbreak that remind us of the massive effect U.S. presence has had on the people of Afghanistan.
