United States may change its strategy on Afghanistan, and focus more on dismantling the terror training camps in Pakistan. Pentagon's top military officials have recommended to President Barack Obama that the US should focus more on eliminating Taliban and al Qaeda safe havens in Pakistan.
Final decision on US’s strategy on the region will be taken after Obama hears the recommendations from General David Petraeus, in charge of US Central Command, and from Richard Holbrooke, Obama''s civilian envoy to Afghanistan.
The US Defence Secretary Robert Gates accepted that the allied forces would continue to face stiff resistance from the Afghan militants in the region, but they will continue their efforts for achieving the ‘number one goal’ of dismantling al Qaeda and the Taliban.
