Hamid Karzai, the Afghan President has refused to sign a security deal with the US. They will probably leave the country next year.
The reason why Karzai disagreed with the deal are the Americans raids on Afghan homes. Furthermore, they ask to give back them detainees from Guantanamo.
This problem raises an issue, what must the US or NATO do? Do they have to stay or or to leave? The threat from Taliban is always here. The decision will be probably taken in 2014, after the Afghan election.
But Karzai asked the US some compensations. He wants Americans stop to kill Afghan, he wants the US send back Afghan detainees and finally he wants the US don't support any candidate in the election.
And now how he said, the ball is in the American court.

ReplyDeleteI think it is a wise action for Afghanistan president and citizens. As a president, if American withdraw soldiers from Afghanistan,he can have more power and better authority in the country. In addition, it can improve the security and provide real peaceful environment in Afghanistan.
