LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Gordon Brown will signal a tougher stance toward Afghan President Hamid Karzai Friday, saying international support for him depends on progress on security and fighting corruption.
In a speech later Friday, Brown will also defend Britain's strategy in Afghanistan after the killing of five British soldiers by an Afghan policeman this week led to calls at home for Britain to pull out its 9,000 troops.
