Afghan President Ashraf Ghani has hailed US President Donald Trump's decision to commit US troops to the country to fight against the resurgent Taliban. <br/><br/>Mr Ghani thanked the US for supporting the joint struggle against the threat of terrorism. Mr Trump has committed the US army to the open-ended conflict, despite previously advocating its withdrawal. He offered few details on the plan, but he did single out Pakistan for offering safe havens to extremists. <br/><br/>Meanwhile, the Taliban has warned that Afghanistan would become another graveyard for the US if it did not withdraw its troops. <br/><br/>Mr Trump warned a hasty US withdrawal from Afghanistan would leave a vacuum for terrorists to fill and said he had decided to keep troops there to fight to win to avoid the mistakes made in Iraq. <br/><br/>He said, his new approach would be more pragmatic and based on conditions on the ground rather than idealistic and time-based, and would switch from nation building to killing terrorists. <br/>
