US Commander In Afghanistan Says Fighting To Continue Until Political Settlement

The commander of US forces and the Resolute Support mission in Afghanistan Gen. Scott Miller says that the fighting in the country will continue until a political settlement.

“This fight will go until a political settlement,” he told CNN when asked whether the Afghan campaign against the Taliban had reached a stalemate. “These are two sides that are fighting against one another, and neither one of them will achieve a military victory at this stage.”

Miller’s statement shows that US efforts to reach a deal with the Taliban have not reached any significant progress so far. One of the Taliban’s main demands is a full withrawal of US troops from the war-torn country.

15,000 more troops and a couple of years… that’s all we need. We are THIS close to victory. [And there’s a bumper crop of opium poppies this year. We’re gonna be rich!]
