After nearly 20 years of fighting the Taliban, the US is looking for a way to extricate itself.

WASHINGTON - A planned $1 billion cut in U.S. aid to Afghanistan would come from funds for Afghan security forces, according to three U.S. sources, a step experts said would undercut both Kabul s ability to fight the Taliban and its leverage to negotiate a peace deal with them.

Pompeo and other U.S. officials have declined to publicly detail how the cut would be made. The State Department declined to comment on its plans. Most of the fund pays for salaries, food, fuel, equipment and infrastructure to support Afghan troops and national police. U.S. civilian aid is far lower, with the State Department requesting $532.8 million this year, mainly for general economic support as well as for counter-narcotics and law enforcement.Pompeo announced the cut as he flew home from Kabul after failing to persuade Ghani and Abdullah to end a dispute over Afghanistan s September 2019 presidential election. Both men claim they won and have held rival inaugurations.

Government and Taliban officials have also agreed to start prisoner releases as a prelude to peace talks envisaged under a Feb. 29 U.S.-Taliban deal for a phased U.S. troop withdrawal.
