At the same time, the number of troops left behind is also, there may be “up to a thousand”, but the final “no clarity”.
This confirms the information of another American publication. – Associated Press (Of), which last week, again referring to sources in the White House, reported on the likelihood of leaving part of its military in Afghanistan.
