They also agreed to 要求する the Afghan 政府 to 完全にする 明確な／細部 改革（する）s and 会合，会う other milestones ーするために receive up to $800 million. U.S. 公式の／役人s said the Afghans 示唆するd the incentive-based 基金ing idea. The leaders of the two nations also said they would 再開する 決まりきった仕事 大臣の-level 弁護 and 明言する／公表する Department 会合s.

Ghani and Abdullah fought a contentious 選挙 last year to 取って代わる Karzai, and their 力／強力にする-株ing 協定 was 称讃するd by Kerry, who played a 重要な 役割 in 仲買人ing it.
"It is 平易な today to underestimate the 手段 of courage and leadership and selflessness that was 需要・要求するd at that moment, and that both of these leaders continue to show in their com mitment to a まとまり 政府," Kerry said.
He 追加するd that "抱擁する challenges remain" but that the 協定s to be reached this week will help 可能にする 安定 and 安全. Kerry said that the 共同の 外見 at （軍の）野営地，陣営 David, along with the White House 会合s, should serve as notice to the Taliban that the U.S.-Afghan 関係 is 支援する on 跡をつける and they should 交渉する rather than fight.

Obama has 約束d to pull remaining U.S. 軍隊／機動隊s out by the end of his 大統領／総裁などの地位. But 欠陥／不足s in the Afghan 安全 軍隊s, 激しい 死傷者s in the 階級s of the Afghan army and police, a 壊れやすい new 政府 and 恐れるs that Islamic 明言する／公表する 闘士，戦闘機s could 伸び（る） a foothold in Afghanistan have 連合させるd to 説得する Obama to slow the 撤退.
Instead of trimming the 現在の U.S. 軍隊 of 9,800 to 5,500 by the end of this year, U.S. 公式の／役人s say the 行政 now might keep many of them there 井戸／弁護士席 into 2016. Obama has said that after that, the U.S. will 持続する only an 大使館-based 安全 軍隊 in Kabul of perhaps 1,000 軍隊／機動隊s.
Ghani, who has 表明するd worries about Islamic 明言する／公表する 交戦的なs trying to 伸び（る） a foothold in his country, has 圧力（をかける）d to keep more U.S. 軍隊／機動隊s there longer, but Obama has 約束d to end both wars in Afghanistan before his 大統領／総裁などの地位 ends in January 2017.
Both Carter and Kerry 定評のある the importance of the U.S continuing its counterterrorism 使節団s in Afghanistan, even into 2017.

He said the U.S. will continue to 持続する a counterterrorism 成果／努力 that is "焦点（を合わせる）d on al-Qaida at this moment" but would also have the ability to 補助装置 the Afghan 軍隊s as they 供給する 安全 for their nation.
During a visit to the 米国防総省 earlier Monday, Ghani thanked U.S. 軍隊／機動隊s and taxpayers for their sacrifices in nearly 14 years of war. He 誓約（する）d that his 貧窮化した country will not remain a 重荷（を負わせる） to the West.
"We do not now ask what the 部隊d 明言する／公表するs can do for us," Ghani said. "We want to say what Afghanistan will do for itself and for the world," he 追加するd.
On arrival at （軍の）野営地，陣営 David, Ghani 強調するd what he called a new 段階 of the U.S.-Afghan 関係.
"It's time for Afghanistan to 報いる the gift that the 部隊d 明言する／公表するs has so generously 供給するd over the years," he said. "報いるing the gift means owning our problems, solving them and asking of ourselves what we must do for ourselves and for the 地域."
Ghani's 関係 with Washington stands in stark contrast to that of his 前任者, Karzai, whose antagonism toward the U.S. 最高潮に達するd in a 拒絶 to 調印する 安全 協定s with Washington and 北大西洋条約機構 before leaving office last year. Ghani 調印するd the 協定／条約s within days of becoming 大統領，／社長 in September, and he has since enjoyed a の近くに 関係 with American 外交官s and 軍の leaders.
