'Possible troop increase to Afghanistan' says NATO head

 
NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen announced in Warsaw Monday evening 
that US President Barack Obama will decide soon whether or not to send 
additional troops to Afghanistan.

Rasmussen, on an official visit to Warsaw where he met Prime Minister Donald 
Tusk, Foreign Affairs head Radoslaw Sikorski and National Defence Minister 
Bogdan Klich, spent the majority of the visit discussing Afghanistan.

“The Secretary General said that, in the near future, we can expect the US 
President to announce a change in strategy and an eventual change in the number 
of troops in Afghanistan,” announced Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Piotr 
Paszkowski.

This is Anders Fogh Rasmussen's first visit to Poland since he assumed office 
as the head of NATO on 1 August this year. The former Danish Prime Minister's  
visit is part of a cyclical tour to several member states, including France, 
Great Britain and Germany, aimed at preparing ahead of the 3-4 December meeting 
of NATO foreign ministers. ===========================
