The CDS disagreed, but that's okay.
We talked about the ultimate aim being peace in Afghanistan, and obviously what everybody wants is a peaceful, stable country that can survive on its own. How do you define that? A lot of people have said, “Well, what's our exit plan? When are we leaving? Tell me when.” My personal view is that you can't define a date. You have to define a state.
How would you define the state of peace in Afghanistan that would allow us and our allies to start withdrawing?
