Kerry Meets Afghan Leaders in Bid to End Deadlock

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is meeting Afghan leaders in Kabul to urge the formation of a coalition government and end an electoral deadlock between the war-torn country’s presidential candidates.

Kerry, who arrived early today after a U.S.-China conference in Beijing, was sent by President Barack Obama to seek a way out of the dispute over election results between Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai, who was the winner in an initial vote count, and Abdullah Abdullah, who said the results were skewed by systematic fraud.
