WASHINGTON (November 3, 2009)--White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Tuesday the U.S. embassy in Kabul is working with President Hamid Karzai to improve governance in Afghanistan.
Gibbs says he was reluctant to get ahead of what those discussions might yield, but President Barack Obama's top spokesman says the president wants a serious approach to cutting out corruption from that country.
Gibbs said the U.S. cannot keep simply hoping corruption would end without concrete steps.
Karzai won another term on Monday after his opponent dropped out of the planned runoff, saying the election could not be free or fair.
