The Afghan Governors
Ten years after foreign forces invaded Afghanistan, they've begun to hand full responsibility back to Afghans. Lyse Doucet travels around the country to meet the men in charge.
As international forces begin to hand back power in Afghanistan, exactly who are the Afghans in charge?
Lyse Doucet, with more than 20 years experience there and an incredible contact book, travelled to three different cities to meet three very different men trying to build the new Afghanistan.
She found hope, frustration and in one case, tragedy.
The programme contains one of the last broadcast interviews of Ahmad Wali Karzai (pictured), who was assassinated by his bodyguard earlier this month.
