(Worthy News) – Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller made an unannounced visit to Afghanistan Tuesday, meeting with Afghan officials and American troops as the U.S. continues a major drawdown from the country during President Trump’s final weeks in office.

Mr. Miller, who is presiding over dramatic cuts in the number of troops stationed in Afghanistan, Iraq and Somalia, met with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani in Kabul. The two men discussed “a historic opportunity to achieve peace in the country,” Pentagon officials said.

The Pentagon chief also met with Gen. Scott Miller, the head of U.S. Forces-Afghanistan, and American troops spending the holidays in Afghanistan away from their families. [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
