**Nato’s top official says countries will send at least 7,000 extra troops to support the US surge in Afghanistan.**Speaking at a Nato summit in Brussels, Anders Fogh Rasmussen said there would be “more [troops] to come”.
“At least 25 countries will send more forces to the mission in 2010,” the Nato secretary general told reporters.
Earlier, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton described the response from the US’s Nato allies as “positive”.
But some major allies, like France and Germany, are holding off from committing to sending extra troops.
