"We are in an overall budget of 4000 soldiers who are on the ground, and we have no intention of passing it," Mr.
Juppe told reporters after meeting his U.S. counterpart Robert Gates. "It is already a considerable effort on the part of France, has long argued, since we are in Afghanistan since the beginning" after the overthrow of the Taliban regime in late 2001, he added. Asked about any requests for reinforcements made by the United States, "I told them clearly indicated that we did not have that ability," said number two in the government.
Republican Senator John McCain, that Mr. Juppe had to meet in the afternoon, said "appreciate the work of the French" but like most important French participation. "Obviously, we would like more help with sending trainers - the police do a great job with the police [Afghan] - but I can not tell the French what to do," held Mr.
McCain. For Mr. Juppe, "the current state of planning, the troops withdrawn Surobi will be needed to secure the [province] Kapisa. In 2011 to begin the process of transferring security to Afghan forces and the withdrawal of U.S. forces in the country, presently constituted by 97,000 soldiers.
