Afghanistan was facing a humanitarian crisis even before winter set in. Now the country is enduring its coldest weather in 15 years. Freezing temperatures have killed well over 100 people, and as always, the crisis is hitting women and children the hardest – particularly after the Taliban prohibited women from working for aid organizations, effectively denying them critical assistance. In the past weeks, multiple delegations from the United Nations and other aid groups have traveled to Kabul to press for women’s basic rights to work and learn. Tonight, Christiane speaks with Amina Mohammed and Sima Bahous, two of the UN’s most senior officials who have just returned from Afghanistan where they tried to get the Taliban to change its mind.
Also on today's show: Andrew Solomon, Author, “Far from the Tree”; Rev. Wheeler Parker, Jr., Co-author, “A Few Days Full of Trouble”
