- Story Text: U.S. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton , part of a three-member U.S. delegation, met Afghan President Hamid Karzai at the heavily guarded presidential palace in Kabul on Sunday (January 14) . Clinton also met a group of Afghan women on her day-trip, a U.S. embassy spokeswoman said.
Clinton, who is expected to be a White House contender, was among a group of prominent American women who first raised concern in the West over rights issues in Afghanistan following the Taliban takeover in the late 1990s.
The Senator and her delegation arrived early on Sunday. She was due to travel to neighbouring Pakistan later and was expected to meet Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf, an official in Pakistan said. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
