British troops in Afghanistan may have to take ground they have gained this summer again next year, the Nato commander has warned.
Gen Dan McNeill said the alliance had made some important military gains over the past six months in Helmand.
But he expressed concern that Afghan security forces would not be able to retain security in the territory as the Taleban regroup over winter.
After the Defence Secretary admitted this week that the Taliban would HAVE to be part of any solution is this the start of an "admission" that despite all the claims of gains we are actually losing the war ?
