The United States will sign a deal to reduce its troops in Afghanistan only if the "reduction in violence" pact with the Taliban is successful, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Tuesday.
"If - and only - if it's successful, we will sign the U.S.- Taliban agreement" on or about Feb 29 that includes the U.S. troop withdrawal and negotiations, Pompeo told reporters at a news conference.
