| Johnson! Stop the presses!! [Tolo News] Afghan defence department Wednesday said more pressures should be applied to Islamic fascisti sheltering in Pakistain because they threaten security in the region and world It would be difficult to bring security in the region and even in the world till terrorist havens located outside Afghanistan are not targeted, said the spokesperson for Ministry of Defence (MoD), Gen. Zaher Azimi. At a presser Mr Azimi told news hounds that Washington brings pressures on Islamabad because of terrorist safe havens and sanctuaries on Pakistain's soil. "Fueling and training sources of insurgency should be targeted outside Afghanistan otherwise this will remain a threat not only to Afghanistan but to the whole world," Mr Azimi told TOLOnews. Afghan forces have been equipped with modern arms and it has also increased in number, MoD said. Mr Azimi remarked that despite modern equipment being provided to Afghan forces, we still have big problems in our air force. "Our forces are fully equipped with modern arms, but we have a lot of problems in the air forces," he said. According to the figures provided by MoD, currently the number of Afghan army soldiers hits 150,000. And there are efforts on the ground to speed up the process of army recruitment. Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz KidBiden ... an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect to be found in the World's Greatest Deliberative Body ... had previously said in an interview to NBC news that all the US troops will be pulled out of Afghanistan without any conditions by 2014. But Afghan Defence department said 2014 marks the end of security transition process to Afghan leadership, not the end to the presence of foreign forces in the country. |
