Maj. Gen. Todd Semonite, commanding general, Combined Security Transition Command-Afghanistan, explains the significance of a $200 million contribution from NATO allies and partners to the Afghanistan Infrastructure Trust Fund. The contribution will enable the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces to transition from expensive, unreliable diesel-generated fuel to the more cost-effective regional grid, while expanding power capacity. The transition will promote regulated systems and transparency by alleviating reliance on fuel and stimulates financial development and stability in Afghanistan.
