Afghanistan

The US may send an additional 10,000 troops to Afghanistan. US Defense Secretary Gates chided European leaders for failing to build support for an Afghan surge. NATO has failed to respond to a call for 4,000 additional troops. ISAF’s senior spokesman said cooperation between Afghanistan and Pakistan is improving.
