Afghanistan has rejected the proposal of a security agreement with the United States for allowing American troops to raid Afghan homes and mosques after combat operations end in 2014, jeopardizing the post-departure deal.
The move comes days before Afghan tribal leaders were to meet in a jirga to consider the Bilateral Security Agreement (BSA) with the U.S., putting the entire deal in a deadlock.
According to the BBC, 3,000 Afghan leaders were to meet in loya jirga on Thursday, where a document acceptable to both sides would have been presented for consideration.
The U.S. wants to continue to have the ability to prevent terrorist attacks coming from Afghanistan, and that could involve entering Afghan properties, the report added.
Earlier, a spokesman for President Hamid Karzai said that there was no flexibility possible in the stand taken by his government.
If the agreement is not reached, the U.S. troops would withdraw next year, which will lead to grave consequences for other aid donations that could jeopardize Afghanistan's fragile recovery from war.
