It is our assessment that in a period of time\u2026 [the terrorist groups] would have in the future the capability to do what they did on 9\/11,&#8221; Dunford argued.<br \/>\nThe statement came after he admitted in mid-November that the Taliban &#8220;are not losing&#8221; in Afghanistan, where he said more efforts are needed to ensure lasting peace.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They are not losing right now, I think that is fair to say. We used the term stalemate a year ago and, relatively speaking, it has not changed much,&#8221; Dunford said, stressing that there was no &#8220;military solution&#8221; to peace in Afghanistan.<br \/>\nIn August 2017, President Donald Trump announced a new US strategy on Afghanistan, in which he pledged to continue Washington&#8217;s support for the Afghan government and military in their fight against the ongoing militant insurgency, aggravated by an unstable political, social and security situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier, Joseph Dunford admitted that
