Commander ISAF VII: Lieutenant General Ethem ERDAGI

Through our efforts in areas such as ISAF expansion into the Provincial Reconstruction Teams, the renovations and operation of the Kabul International Airport (KAIA), and the assistance in improving the capabilities of the Afghan National Army (ANA) and Police Force (ANP), ISAF will continue to assist and support the Government of Afghanistan (GOA) in its efforts to enhance security and peace, and to expand its authority to the whole country.

Our will, professionalism and our determination have prepared us to face all potential challenges and it is my vision that together we can make a significant difference in the lives of the people of Afghanistan who both desire and deserve peace and stability.
