SubscribeGates recommends additional troops for Afghanistan
January 14, 2008
“U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates has recommended additional troops
be sent to Afghanistan to augment NATO forces, but no final decision has been made on the deployment, defense officials said on Monday.
Gates last week was considering the option of sending some 3,000 Marines to Afghanistan to thwart an expected spring offensive by the Taliban.” (Reuters)
