The agreement was signed Saturday by U.S. and the Taliban’s top negotiators, and follows a year of tough negotiations.
The Trump Administration is promising to pull out 5,000 troops within 135 days.
The rest of the 13,000 troops in Afghanistan will come home in another 14 months.
But the armed forces will only leave if the Taliban holds up its end of the deal.
It has to sever all ties with Al Qaeda and negotiate power-sharing with other Afghan political factions.
