Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.
When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.
The United States will extend its military presence in Afghanistan beyond 2016. President Obama says the mission in Afghanistan is “vital to US national security interests” and the troops are needed to help Afghan forces counter a growing Taliban threat. 5,500 troops will remain – more than the small embassy-based force which was all that was due to remain at the end of next year.
