EUobserver / Dutch to pull troops out of Aghanistan following government collapse
Democracy, what a bastard, eh?
...and, are European policians already fed up with Obamas lies?
Dutch Prime Minister Jan-Peter Balkenende said:his country's troops are likely to be pulled out of Afghanistan by the end of this year, a move he said may prompt other wavering states - including EU members - to think about doing the same.
EUobserver said:The centre-right leader was speaking a day after his government collapsed over the issue. The Labour Party quit the the coalition on Saturday, saying it could not agree to a Nato request to extend the Dutch mission beyond 2010. The Netherlands is among the top ten contributors to Afghanistan. Twenty-one of its soldiers have been killed there.
