U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Thursday proposed a high-level international conference to map out a new strategy for Afghanistan and said neighbour Pakistan would be invited.
"We hope that this meeting could provide an opportunity to reach a common set of principles, perhaps embodied in a chairman's statement on a common way forward," Clinton told NATO foreign ministers, without saying where it would take place.
