U.S. Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan said Thursday said Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and him agree on the administration's plan to transfer security in 2014 to the Afghan side.
Ryan made the comments during the vice presidential debate with Vice President Joe Biden at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky.
He said although the Republican ticket agree with the administration's timeline to draw down forces in Afghanistan, but "we don't want to lose our gains ... we want to see 2014 transition successful," and want to give the generals what they need to make it successful.
Biden, on the other hand, stressed the U.S. side will end the war in 2014, and transfer the security lead to the Afghan side by the end of that year.
