Meeting Rice Karzai BSA
November 28, 2013 by staff
Meeting Rice Karzai BSA, Afghan President Hamid Karzai on Monday pushed back against U.S. efforts to get him to quickly sign a major bilateral security agreement — and even suggested new terms for the precarious deal, the White House said.
In a meeting in Kabul Monday with U.S. National Security Advisor Susan Rice, Karzai laid out new terms for the security accord and “indicated he is not prepared to sign the BSA promptly,” the White House said in a readout of the meeting between the two officials.
The Obama administration has insisted that not getting the deal signed before the end of the year would throw doubt into U.S.-NATO plans for leaving troops in the war-torn country.
