Nato: We will not abandon Afghanistan
Nato will start reducing troop levels in Afghanistan next year and hand over control of security to the Afghans in 2014 but will not abandon the country after that and let it slip back into chaos, Nato secretary general Anders Fogh Rasmussen said today.
Rasmussen, US president Barack Obama, Afghan president Hamid Karzai and leaders of the 28-nation alliance were meeting behind closed doors to discuss the alliance’s exit strategy from Afghanistan on the second day of Nato’s annual summit.
