The international response to the September 11 attacks in
the United States set a chain of events in motion that was
to have a profound effect on Central Asia, the Caucasus and
the surrounding region. From the overthrow of the Taliban
regime in Afghanistan to US-endorsed anti-terrorism operations
in Georgia, the aftereffects are still playing themselves
out well over a year later. Here, EurasiaNet presents the
stories we published in the months following the attacks,
exploring these changing regional realities. For further background,
see EurasiaNet's special reports on Afghanistan's
Emergency Loya Jirga and Instablility
in Georgia's Pankisi Gorge.
