U.S. President Obama is expected to outline his plan for troop drawdown in Afghanistan to begin in July 2011, which is 18 months after his December 2009 announcement of the surge of 30,000 troops in an address at West Point Military Academy. There are presently approximately 100,000 troops in the country in the war against the Taliban and al-Qaeda which began nearly 10 years ago, in 2001. President Obama made a surprise visit to the troops in Afghanistan in December 2010.
