奥巴马表示,美军仍将重点工作放在支持阿富汗军队和追捕恐怖分子上。
"Maintaining our forces at this specific level, based on our assessment 3 of the security conditions and the strength of Afghan forces, will allow us to continue to provide tailored support to help Afghan forces continue to improve," he said.
他说:“将驻军人数保持在该水平,是基于美方对安全形势及阿富汗军事实力的评估。该决定可使得我们提供具体的支持,以此来帮助阿富汗军事实力的持续提高。”
The U.S. President said the new decision was based on recommendation of U.S. military leaders and following extensive consultations 4 with his national security team.

他补充说道:“这一决定可确使我的继任者保有推动阿富汗情势进展的坚实基础,以及随着恐怖主义的演变,应对其威胁的弹性。
