Answer:
Explanation:
The United States established diplomatic ties with Afghanistan in 1935. Afghanistan remains an important partner of the United States in the fight against terrorism, working with us to eliminate al-Qa’ida, ISIS-Khorasan (ISIS-K), and their affiliates in Afghanistan. In order to strengthen Afghanistan’s capabilities as a partner, and to improve the lives of the Afghan people, we continue to invest U.S. resources to help Afghanistan improve its security, governance, institutions, and economy. Our strong bilateral partnership is guided by the Strategic Partnership Agreement (SPA) between the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan and the United States signed in May 2012, which outlines respective economic and political commitments, as well as by the Bilateral Security Agreement (BSA) signed in September 2014, which outlines mutual security understandings. In July 2012, following the entry into force of the SPA, the United States designated Afghanistan a Major Non-NATO Ally. The South Asia Strategy announced in August 2017 outlined conditions for a political process between the Taliban and the Afghan government that could lead to a peace settlement to end the conflict in Afghanistan. The Strategy for Central Asia, announced in February 2020, envisioned expanding and maintaining support for stability in Afghanistan, as well as strengthening connectivity between Central Asia and Afghanistan.
Answer:
c. The huge financial and propaganda effort of Mark Hanna and the Republicans.
Explanation:
The 1896 presidential election was one that became the deciding factor for the economy of the United States. The election took place during the Panic of 1893 which greatly affected the economy and living conditions of the nation.
Republican candidate William McKinley was pitted against Democratic candidate William Jennings Bryan whose main focus for the campaign was blaming the business sector for the failing economy. Contrary to Bryan's approach, McKinley worked with the businessmen, with Mark Hanna as his campaign manager. Hanna would become an important part of the Republicans' success in the election because of his efforts in rallying financiers and industrialists. Presenting a business proposal, Hanna succeeded in bringing a huge amount of financial help from these people.
