“Britain to send more troops to Afghanistan, Gordon Brown confirms”

The name of the article I read is “Britain to send more troops to Afghanistan, Gordon Brown confirms”
This article talks about Afghanistan war.
The Prime minister says he has agreed in principle to send an additional 500 troops subject to certain conditions being met.
Gordon Brown said today: Britain send more troops, as long as the Afghans also agree whit this.
Different countries made a contribution with the troops and the right equipment. They have a commit.
37 troops have dead in the summer.
He said that “the debt of gratitude to the 37 who have given their lives in Afghanistan,"
And "Nothing can erase the pain for their families”.
The new force have conditions.
First, “that a new Afghan government demonstrates its commitment to bring forward the Afghan troops to be trained and to fight alongside our forces”
Other is , that our commitment is part of an agreed approach across the international coalition, with all countries bearing their fair share."
David Cameron , the Tory leader. In the PMQ`s quizzed about the mental health provisions for those returning from the conflict and asked for assurances that troops received proper training before being sent to the front line.
The Primer Minister insisted that British soldiers do receive proper training and that veterans are given priority in accessing mental health services.
In summary The Afghanistan war is very important in this country because intended much money in this.
The Primer Minister is quizzed in the PMQs.
The political parties have different opinions about this war and the budget.

  1. I think that not always the problem of this kind can be resolved with more violence. And this should make more pain for the families of the troopers, that probably must be very worried.
