New TLO Report Assessing the Dutch Engagement in Uruzgan (2006-2010)
On 1 August 2010, a four-year Dutch civil-military engagement in Uruzgan came to an end. The Dutch comprehensive ‘3D’ approach emphasized development, diplomacy/governance, and defense/security, and sought to diplomatically use development where possible and to employ force only as necessary. This TLO report assesses the impact of the Dutch approach, supported by Australian and U.S. forces, on the political, economic and security situation in Uruzgan.
