Rethinking Afghan reconstruction

The World

Delegates from more than 70 countries are in The Hague to discuss Afghan reconstruction. The big hope is that the 70 countries meeting there today will be able to breathe new life into the campaign to defeat al Qaida and the Taliban in Afghanistan and put the country on the road to some kind of security and stability. Afghanistan’s neighbors are all there, including Iran. So is the America Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. BBC’s David Loyn joins us from The Hague with the details.
