CNN: U.S. Officials Reassure Afghanistan It Will Not 'Abandon Them'

The US has assured Afghanistan of its continued support, stating it will not abandon the country. If the Taliban violates a new peace plan, the US claims it has the legal authority to act against them. An agreement with the Taliban includes a weeklong reduction in violence, followed by peace talks. The truce is expected to lead to the withdrawal of some US troops, reducing their number from 12,000 to 8,600.
