Ahead of this week's Afghanistan conference in London,Germany unveiled a new Afghanistan strategy which includes sending more police instructors to the region.The number is to be increased to 200,which will allow some five thousand Afghan police officers to be trained annually. But the German police instructors first have to undergo training themselves to prepare for their deployment. During weeks of instruction,they learn the difficulties of negotiating with tribal leaders,and how to behave in the event of a terrorist attack.
