Indiana Senator Joe Donnelly recently returned from a visit to Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Turkey. Donnelly, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, led a congressional delegation to meet with U.S. military and diplomatic personnel as well as government leaders in each country. The group assessed U.S. progress in transitioning our troops out of Afghanistan, learned about security challenges in Pakistan, and met with Syrian opposition working on humanitarian relief and visited a Syrian refugee camp on the border in Turkey. Donnelly discusses his trip for today’s Daily Local News feature.
