 Nato Review
Daoud, one of Afghanistan's most dynamic leaders, led the country in the 1950s and early 1960s, and then again between 1973 and 1978.
An autocrat, who sought a close relationship with the Soviet Union, Daoud was able to bring tribal leaders in line and to assert central authority over the entire country.
While Daoud’s policies, during both of his periods in power, were highly autocratic, his principal achievement was to have built, for the first time in his country’s history, a sufficiently well-trained, well-equipped and mobile Afghan Army to be able to maintain stability throughout the country.

While the King was bathing his eyes with mud and mineral water at a thermal spa on the isle of Ischia off Naples, his kingdom was peremptorily converted into a republic.
Under the present constitution, promulgated in 1964, Daoud, as a member of the royal family (he is a prince), is forbidden to hold public office.
Daoud, during his tenure as Prime Minister, between 1953 and 1963, cleverly exploited Afghanistan's strategic location (with access to the Khyber Pass and common borders with Iran, Pakistan, China and Russia) to get the U.S. and the Soviet Union to compete with each other in giving aid.
