President Ashraf Ghani has said ‘the extraordinarily increased coordination’ among security and defense organs empowered them more against the enemy.
A statement from the Presidential Palace to Pajhwok Afghan News quoted President Ghani as expressing these views during a meeting with Resolute Support Mission (RSM) Commander Gen. Scott Miller in his office on Sunday.
Miller praised the Afghan forces’ improved capacity and combat skills and called their latest operations against militants as successful.
The US general also said improved coordination among Afghan security and defense forces was behind their success.
“Afghan security and defense forces defeated the enemy on the battlefield and killed their key terrorist figures in recent past and captured many areas from them,” Miller was quoted as saying.
President Ghani thanked NATO’s continued support to Afghan security and defense forces and said, “Coordination among Afghan security and defense forces has significantly increased and has led to their success against terrorists.”
He said Afghan forces were fighting on front lines against terrorism and international community’s support was important for them.
