U.S. President Barack Obama announced the details of the new U.S. strategy for Afghanistan on March 27. The strategy includes 4,000 additional troops to help train Afghanistan's army and police. The plan also calls for hundreds of additional civilians to help with Afghan reconstruction and billions of dollars in additional civilian aid to Pakistan to improve people's lives and curtail the influence of Islamic militants. Afghan President Hamid Karzai praised the plan March 28, saying it "is better than we were expecting." (AP)
