WASHINGTON, Oct. 16 (UPI) -- Uncertainty about Afghan leadership will complicate Washington's decision on whether to send additional U.S. troops to Afghanistan, a key lawmaker said.
Carl Levin, D-Mich., chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said Thursday questions about whether the United States will continue to have a reliable partner in Afghan President Hamid A Karzai, who is expected to face a runoff election, is "one of the really great problems that we have to solve," The Washington Post reported.
