Defense Writers Group
July 29, 2021
Moderator: Good morning, and welcome everyone to this Defense Writers Group. I’m Thom Shanker, the new Director of the Project for Media and National Security at George Washington University, and we are both honored and happy with the timing to have Mr. John F. Sopko with us today. He is the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction. The timeliness of this meeting is superb following President Biden’s withdrawal orders and of course the SIGAR’s quarterly report, the embargo lifted just last night.
