US war in Afghanistan will end in 2014: Obama
The US war in Afghanistan will end by late 2014, President Barack Obama vowed, saying that another 34,000 American troops will come home over the next year, AFB reports."This drawdown will continue. And by the end of next year, our war in Afghanistan will be over," Obama said in his annual State of the Union address. Obama told Iranian leaders it was time they ended a standoff over the country's nuclear program, just two weeks before fresh talks with world powers. "The leaders of Iran must recognize that now is the time for a diplomatic solution, because a coalition stands united in demanding that they meet their obligations."
