Contents Background -- The decision by two U.S. presidents to withdraw the U.S. military and contractors from Afghanistan sets the scene for the collapse of the ANDSF -- A number of factors contributed to the underdevelopment of the ANDSF -- Status of U.S.-provided ANDSF equipment and U.S.-trained ANDSF personnel mostly remains unknown -- Conclusion -- Agency comments -- Appendices.
Summary Since 2002, the United States has allocated nearly $90 billion in security sector assistance to the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF), with the goal of developing an independent, self-sustaining force capable of combating both internal and external threats. Yet, in August 2021, the ANDSF collapsed, paving the way for the Taliban to re-establish control of Afghanistan. The objectives of this interim evaluation were to (1) determine the factors that contributed to the ANDSF's collapse in August 2021; (2) assess any underlying factors over the 20-year security assistance mission that contributed to the underdevelopment of ANDSF capabilities and readiness; and (3) account for all U.S.- provided ANDSF equipment and U.S.-trained ANDSF personnel, where possible.
