NATO's post-2014 mission to Afghanistan will include forces to protect the alliance's trainers, Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said Wednesday, after defence ministers approved the framework for the mission, AP reported. Rasmussen said it would be an "integrated part of the Resolute Support mission that we are able to protect our trainers ourselves." "We feel responsibility ourselves to ensure that our trainers are well protected and can exercise their activities in a secure environment, he added. The NATO defence ministers agreed to a "limited regional" approach, Rasmussen said, centred on five locations in Kabul and the north, west, south and east of the country.
