NATO sees “encouraging progress” in efforts for peace in Afghanistan, chief of the alliance said on Wednesday.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said this in a statement ahead of a meeting with EU Defence Ministers.
He said that he will address missions and operations and will update the ministers on NATO’s presence in Afghanistan.
“We stay committed to our presence there because we believe that’s the best way to support the peace efforts and we see some encouraging progress when it comes to moving towards starting inter-Afghan dialogue, inter-Afghan negotiations to create a lasting and peaceful solution to the crisis in Afghanistan,” Stoltenberg said.
