US and NATO May Leave Afghanistan in 14 Months

US and NATO troops can be withdrawn from Afghanistan within fourteen months if the Taliban adhere to the agreements made.

 

The American and Afghan governments have announced this in a joint statement.

The US and the Taliban have signed a basic agreement after one and a half years of negotiations to bring peace to the country eventually.

One of the first steps towards peace would be the withdrawal of the first 8,600 US soldiers within 135 days of signing the agreement.

The signature must take place in Qatar on Saturday.
