Acting US Secretary of Defense Christopher Mills has announced that he will expedite the withdrawal from Afghanistan.
In his first message to the military since taking office as defense minister, Christopher Miller said: "All wars must end. We have lost everything in the face of challenges, but now is the time to return home."
He also announced that the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan and the Middle East would be accelerated.
It may be recalled that a few days ago, US President Donald Trump removed Mark Asper from office and appointed Christopher Miller as the acting Secretary of Defense of the United States.
