Pessimists might be shocked by some recent developments.  A Putin-Biden phone call ending in a call for joint action against cyber warfare?  A unanimous U.N. Security Council vote to open the door for humanitarian aid to be distributed to "all parts of Syria"?  How about a U.S. official commenting favorably on a Taliban-Afghan government meeting in Tehran, saying that what Iran is doing "may well be constructive"?  The key is ending the dangerous application of British imperial geopolitics, which has dominated strategic relations for most of the last two centuries.  For a road map to peaceful cooperation in Afghanistan, read Helga Zepp-LaRouche's statement, "Afghanistan at a Crossroads: Graveyard for Empires, or Start of a New Era?"
