Kabul - A spokesman for the Afghan Taliban
condemned on Tuesday US President Donald Trump's announcement
that he will keep American troops in Afghanistan with no set
timetable for withdrawal.
"Instead of continuing of war in Afghanistan, Americans
should have thought about withdrawing their soldiers from
Afghanistan," Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said in a
statement issued hours after Trump's televised speech on U.S.
policy in Afghanistan and South Asia.
Mujahid said "as long as there is even one American solder
in our country", the Islamist insurgents would "continue our
jihad".
