More foreign troops certain in new Afghan plan: US

A top Pentagon official says President Barack Obama's new strategy for Afghanistan will be certain to include reinforcements of foreign troops.
"I think we're very close to a decision in the United States. It will be a matter of a couple or maybe a few weeks," Undersecretary of Defense Michele Flournoy said according to an official transcript released Saturday.
Flournoy, the Pentagon's policy chief, led a US delegation that briefed Nato ambassadors Thursday on the administration's review of the Afghan war. Officials released a transcript of her remarks from that meeting.
"No one is talking about leaving Afghanistan, or even standing pat. We are increasing our commitment and we're talking about how best to do that with both civilian and military resources," Flournoy was quoted as telling Nato ambassadors.
