Hillary Clinton

We deeply appreciate your commitment to this critical issue.

We owe special gratitude to Senator Lugar for his leadership and commitment through all the years on this issue.

I think the 2008 World Development Report, the work of you--your work and Senator Lugar's work, has all sent a powerful signal.

Women's empowerment in Afghanistan and their full and equal participation in their society are fundamental prerequisites for achieving a peaceful and prosperous Afghanistan.
