In September 2018, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo named Khalilzad as the Special Representative for Afghanistan Reconciliation, a newly created envoy with the mission of securing a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Afghanistan.
As of March 2021, he has continued in this role under the new administration of Joe Biden. (ILKHA)
