The United States is said to be backing away from a December 31 deadline for signing the controversial security deal with Afghanistan.
American and Afghan officials say the Obama administration is going to wait in order to strike the deal that will allow it to keep its troops in Afghanistan beyond the 2014 withdrawal deadline. The decision, however, is being viewed as an embarrassing turn following weeks of threats by US officials that a complete withdrawal is possible if President Hamid Karzai refuses to sign the pact. The Afghan president came under additional pressure after NATO chief urged him to sign the deal with the US or there will be no agreement with the military alliance either. Karzai has warned that he will not allow continued foreign presence if it means more bombs and civilian killings.

The commitments made in the Nuclear Agreement (JCPOA) have been upheld by the Islamic Republic of Iran. The United States of America exited the agreement by violating the commitments. Now the Europeans are practically walking away from this agreement. This is the reality of the West! As the Leader mentioned it prior to these negotiations had started; he said that we have decades of experience that America is NOT trustworthy. The European countries are no different when it comes to practicing hypocrisy! Such a shame!

The Pentagon chief has warned Afghanistan against what he termed as foot-dragging on the Bilateral Security Agreement with the US.
Chuck Hagel says the Afghan president\'s deferring risks leaving Washington no time to plan its post-combat mission there. The US defense secretary admitted however that Hamid Karzai was the elected president of a sovereign nation, and Washington\'s ability to influence the decisions he makes, is limited. US-led forces are due to withdraw from Afghanistan by December 2014. But the security agreement under negotiation would allow for a contingent of American troops to remain on the ground. Washington wants its soldiers to enjoy immunity from Afghan law under the deal. However, Karzai has adamantly refused that condition, saying his successor should make the final decision after the presidential election on April 5.

After years of brutal occupation, Washington was finally forced to sign the Status of Forces Agreement with Baghdad, which stipulates that all US forces would be completely out of Iraq by the end of December 2011.
According to the latest opinion polls, the majority of Iraqi people oppose the idea of US soldiers staying in their country beyond the December deadline, but the American regime wants to stay using the weakness of Iraqi army and security forces as pretext. Under the same pretext, US soldiers continue to carry out home raids and arrests.

[23 March 2012] Syria crisis: global and domestic transformations - Middle East Today - Presstv - English
As security in Syria deteriorates with fears of more bombings, continuous fighting between the national army and rebel forces, the United Nations special envoy continues his efforts to create an agreement with the consensus of all parties.
Where can these efforts reach in light of the Syrian opposition\'s refusal of political solution? Some groups have even called for military intervention.
Will there be Arab and western efforts to exert more political and even military pressure on Assad? Will the West leave the resolution to countries like Russia and China in order to avoid a possible Cold War?

Officials in Iraq\'s Kurdistan Region say they\'re making progress with forming the new government following September\'s elections.
Kurdistan\'s main opposition party - the Change Movement - came second in the elections. The party has now agreed to join the government with the winning Kurdistan Democratic Party.
The Change Movement and the Democratic Party have enough seats to form a majority. But Kurdistan\'s Islamic parties are also trying to join the new government. It\'s unclear who will take on the role of the opposition.
The Change Movement is still discussing details of the new government with Kurdistan\'s Prime Minister Nechirvan Barzani.
The Democratic Party\'s historical partner - the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan - will also join the new government - despite its third place finish in the elections. However, officials say that Prime Minister Barzani wants to include other parties rather than continue the duopoly between the Democratic Party and the Patriotic Union.

The US and Afghanistan are at loggerheads over a stalled security agreement that President Hamid Karzai has refused to sign despite increasing US pressure. The deal would allow between 12,000 to 14,000 troops, mostly American, to stay in Afghanistan beyond 2014. Under the pact, American forces would be able to enter Afghan homes as part of their operations and enjoy legal immunity, two of the most important sticking points. President Karzai suggests he\'s being bullied into signing an unfair pact.
Is Afghanistan best with or without this deal?
What would a permanent US stay in the country mean?
