The universally esteemed diplomat won the confidence of former US President Bill Clinton when he served as UN senior administrator in Haiti in the mid-1990s, and of George Bush in Afghanistan where he successfully concluded a two-year term as the UN senior envoy to Kabul.
Al-Ibrahimi worked closely with the US ambassador to Afghanistan, Zalmay Khalilzad, in orchestrating successful US-UN collaboration in Kabul.
His crowning moment was when he brokered an agreement among all ethnic and religious groups on a democratic constitution at the recently concluded grand council, or loya jirga, in Afghanistan.
