The presentation also provided an opportunity for Reudowicz to discuss several issues with Khan, such as the importance of the reintegration program and Ghazni Provincial Reconstruction Team projects.
The construction of a wind power station and other means of providing economical electricity were mentioned as priorities for Khan. In addition, the governor and commander discussed further cooperation and training of Afghan Nation Police in the province.
