I read with great interest the column "A strategy for Central Asia" (Opinion, Thursday ) by Borut Grgic and Alexandros Petersen. The column rightly highlights the importance of effective regional cooperation in Central Asia and Afghanistan.
The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which maintains an extensive field presence in Central Asia, has taken up this challenge. The OSCE works with host governments and civil society representatives to strengthen democratic institutions and the rule of law; combat organized crime and trafficking; promote cross-border trade (including with Afghanistan); rectify environmental damage; and promote political pluralism, respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms.

The Near East South Asia (NESA) Center for Strategic Studies was approved by the secretary of Defense in 2000 and formally launched in October of that year. The youngest of the regional centers administered by the Defense security Cooperation Agency. The center covers one of the most diverse and volatile areas of the world, stretching from the western end of North Africa to the Himalayas - from Marrakech to Bangladesh. The NESA Center region includes that part of the world where the United States has the greatest number of U.S. combat troops deployed, more than 250,000 military and civilian personnel in the Central Command countries alone.
