BRUSSELS (Reuters) - NATO is likely to wait until after this year's fighting season in Afghanistan before deciding the size of the international military force that will remain behind after 2014 to train and assist Afghan troops, a U.S. general said on Tuesday.
Marine Corps General Joseph Dunford, head of international forces in Afghanistan, said he expected NATO defence ministers meeting in Brussels this week to further define the nature of the mission they want to perform in Afghanistan after 2014, when most foreign combat troops withdraw.
