KABUL, Afghanistan Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller said, after a visit to Afghanistan this week, he feels confident that President Donald Trump’s drawdown to 2,500 troops there is the right call.
“I actually walked out of there pretty confident we’re in a right stance right now,” Miller told four reporters traveling with him to Afghanistan, including one from Breitbart News.
Miller arrived in Afghanistan on Tuesday to visit American troops stationed there over the holidays, as well as to get a sense of how the drawdown is going. Trump ordered the withdrawal of U.S. troops from 4,500 down to 2,500 last month the lowest number in almost two decades.

The Iranian foreign ministry spokesman also condemned the US accusations, saying they fall under the umbrella of “repetitive, baseless and fabricated allegations” aimed at smoothing out “the very difficult situation Trump is in”.
“As has been announced numerous times before, attacks on diplomatic and residential areas is rejected,” Saeed Khatibzadeh said.
“In this specific instance, the accusations lie with the US itself and its allies in the region who are after increasing tensions.”
Khatibzadeh advised Trump to use “more believable scenarios” and refrain from “dangerous adventurism” in his final days in the White House.
Iran rejects any attack on diplomatic missions.

US President Donald Trump blamed Iran for a rocket attack on Washington s embassy in Baghdad and said that he would hold Iran responsible if any Americans are killed. Our embassy in Baghdad got hit Sunday by several rockets, Trump tweeted late on Wednesday, referring to an attack that caused damage but no deaths, and the rockets did not explode. Guess where they came from: IRAN. Now we hear chatter about additional attacks against Americans in Iraq … Some friendly health advice to Iran: if one American is killed, I will hold Iran responsible. Think it over.
