卡爾扎伊訪問印度敦促增加對阿富汗投資

Afghan President Hamid Karzai is in India where he held talks Monday with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to appeal for increased investment in war-torn Afghanistan.

Indian officials say Mr. Karzai and Mr. Singh will review a strategic partnership agreement their two countries signed last year designed to deepen security and economic ties. India has already invested more than $2 billion dollars on Afghanistan's infrastructure.

Before holding talks in New Delhi with Mr. Singh Monday, President Karzai met with other high-level Indian officials and visited Mahatma Gandhi's memorial.阿富汗總統卡爾扎伊目前在印度訪問，他星期一與印度總理辛格舉行會談時，敦促印度增加對飽受戰火蹂躪的阿富汗的投資。

印度官員說，卡爾扎伊和辛格將審查印阿兩國去年簽署的一項戰略伙伴協議，簽署該協議是爲了加強兩國之間的安全和經濟關係。到目前爲止，印度已經在阿富汗的基礎設施領域投資20多億美元。

卡爾扎伊星期一在新德里與辛格舉行會談之前，會晤了其他印度高層官員，並拜謁了聖雄甘地陵。
