LONDON: According to a report published in the Guardian, US and Afghan officials are engaged in secret talks which could likely lead to US presence in Afghanistan for decades.
According to the report, the secret negotiations about a long-term security arrangement have been underway for over a month and seek to secure a strategic partnership agreement which would include an American presence beyond the end of 2014, the agreed date for all 130,000 combat troops to leave the country.
American negotiators will arrive later this month in Kabul for a new round of talks. The Afghans rejected the Americans' first draft of a strategic partnership agreement in its entirety, preferring to draft their own proposal. This was submitted to Washington two weeks ago.
