According to the report, the U.S. side considers the Tajik bases better situated for flying into Afghanistan than the more distant Manas Airbase in northern Kyrgyzstan. Negotiations on leasing bases in Tajikistan began in 2001 after the beginning of the antiterrorism operation in Afghanistan, but no agreement was reached, and the talks were broken off in 2002. A French military contingent is stationed in Tajikistan as part of the international coalition operating in Afghanistan. BB __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
