Eye on Afghanistan: Shukria Barakzai in conversation
Afghan politician, journalist and a prominent Muslim feminist Shukria Barakzai as she reflects on the future of Afghanistan, 5 months since she fled the nation following the dramatic takeover by the Taliban.

Afghan politician, journalist and a prominent Muslim feminist Shukria Barakzai hid in the city, along with her husband, moving from one place to the next. As Kabul airport descended into chaos, Shukria began messaging everyone she knew who might help them get out. In the early hours of Monday, August 23rd Shukria and her husband arrived in the UK on a military jet into RAF Brize Norton, thanks to Debbie Abrahams, MP for Oldham East and Saddleworth, and others who continued to pressure Whitehall.
A conversation with Shukria, who’ll be talking to CNN’s chief international correspondent Clarissa Ward about her ordeal and the future of Afghanistan as she sees it.
