Listen "From Special Operations to the CIA: Assessing the Complexity of the Global Environment"
Episode Synopsis
Dave Pitts was the CIA's last man on the ground in Afghanistan as U.S. troops pulled out of the country in 2021. Even though he began his career as a humble private in the U.S. military, he quickly moved into special operations and eventually, to the CIA where he retired last October as the Assistant Director of CIA for South and Central Asia. In his first podcast interview, Dave talks with State Secrets Podcast host Suzanne Kelly about how much the world has changed since his early days of fighting terrorism in the military and why it's more important than ever for the U.S. to be leading in today's world.
