Fiorina statement on Obama's Afghanistan strategy

| | Comments (5)

carly3.jpgU.S. Senate candidate Carly Fiorina on Tuesday issued the following statement after President Obama announced his new strategy for U.S. troops in Afghanistan. Obama said  he would send another 30,000 troops to Afghanistan, for a total of about 100,000, and that U.S. forces will begin to withdraw by July 2011, administration officials said.

"Defeating the terrorist threat in Afghanistan is an imperative," Fiorina said.

"I agreed with President Obama when he said in March that this would require military commitment, economic development and diplomatic energy. I also agree that Afghanistan and Pakistan are inextricably linked.

 
"I support the president's decision to send additional troops to Afghanistan and am pleased that he is deploying them as quickly as prudently possible.

"I believe that any timeline for withdrawal must be sensitive to conditions on the ground, so that it does not pose a security risk for both Americans and Afghans. I also support our efforts to increase the capacity of Afghan military forces to protect their nation.
 
"To achieve victory, it is critically important to continue to listen to our commanders on the ground.

"The men and women of our armed forces and their families are heroes who are willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for the safety and security of this nation, and they deserve the best possible tools and strategy we can provide as we move forward toward victory in Afghanistan."

Fiorina is a Republican who will face Sen. Barbara Boxer next fall.
