This answer has 4 parts. ** Paragraph 3: ** How would your person answer the question: When should the United States leave Afghanistan?  Ashraf Ghani is the Afghan Government's transition chief. His opinion is valuable because he has to assist with the transfer power from the interim government and NATO to the new Afghan Government. His opinion is important because his job is to help bring in elements of democracy into Afghan society.  In Afghanistan there are many different opinions on the U.S.'s involvement in their country. Many people there fear that if the United States withdraws, then their country will not be secure. Earlier this year we reduced our financial aid to Afghanistan from 4 billion to 2 billion dollars and because of this the country has started to struggle with their economy and security. Since this reduction the biggest thing that has happened economically was a shutdown of an education program. This closed hundreds of small schools leaving about 5,000 students with no school to attend. The loss of financial aid and programs being shutdown has left many Afghans nervous and afraid of what will happen when the United Stated completely pulls out of Afghanistan. Ghani is hoping that those foreign governments that had military presence in Afghanistan will exchange the money they spent on military forces for direct financial aid to Afghanistan. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ab00ff; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14.4px; text-align: left;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ab00ff; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14.4px; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14.4px;">I believe that if Ghani was to answer the question: When should the United States leave Afghanistan?, he would say that he would want them to leave in an orderly fashion, but replace the military presence with an economic one. As long as the United States supported them economically enough so that they can continue to "build up" then he would be fine with them leaving when they planned to. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ab00ff; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14.4px; text-align: left;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ab00ff; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14.4px; text-align: left;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ab00ff; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14.4px; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14.4px;">work cited: <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ab00ff; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14.4px; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14.4px; text-align: left;">[]
