many are unwilling to Afghanistan

Afghanistan war increasingly unpopular. This time some NATO members declared they would not send additional troops to Afghanistan unless Afghanistan presidential election on November 7, creating a legitimate government, or until the U.S. President, Barack Obama decided the new strategy there.

Eimert Dutch Defense Minister Van Middelkoop said that his country, with 2160 troops in Afghanistan, while waiting for the results of the last general election, citing the Afghan government legitimacy is the key. "I think most states are waiting for the American decision," said van Middelkoop said at a meeting of NATO defense ministers from 28 countries in Bratislava, last weekend.

Danish Defense Minister Soeren Gade told Danish troops will not add them until they were sure the new government in Kabul. "I think anyone who would send more troops to Afghanistan will ask some reservations," said Gade, whose country has 690 troops in Afghanistan.

"They need to see the new Afghan president and said, if we send more troops to your country, you have to deal with this, this and this. We must ensure that the new government in Afghanistan is committed to their jobs before we send more troops to Afghanistan . "
Defense Minister Franz Josef Jung in Germany said he also would not allow his country increased the number of troops in until December. Germany currently has more than 4200 troops in Afghanistan. (sa / pf)
