KABUL (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Foreign Secretary David Miliband arrived in Kabul on Thursday for an unannounced visit to Afghanistan.
"Frankly, I hope there will be more troop contributions and there need to be more Afghan forces," Rice told reporters travelling with her on the flight from London.
Some NATO countries have bristled at public criticism from Washington over the refusal of a number of alliance members to position their forces in the more dangerous south of Afghanistan to fight Taliban insurgents.
