Washington [US], July 23 (ANI): US President Donald Trump on Monday said that he could end the Afghanistan war in 10 days but that will cause 10 million death.
"I could win that war in a week. I just don't want to kill 10 million people," Trump told reporters, alluding to what he said were military plans. "If I wanted to win that war, Afghanistan would be wiped off the face of the earth. ... It would be over in -- literally, in 10 days," said Trump,
Trump, who last year announced that the US will withdraw its forces from the war-ravaged nation, called the fight "ridiculous".

Trump made these remarks while talking to reporters during his meeting with Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan.
