Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said she could not confirm that an
Afghan court had dismissed the case and stressed the U.S. needs to
respect the sovereignty of Afghanistan, which she called a "young
democracy."
"We have our history of conflicts that had to be worked out after a new
constitution. And so the Afghans are working on it. But America has
stood solidly for religious freedom as a bedrock, the bedrock, of
democracy, and we'll see." Rice said Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press."
Asked if American Christian missionaries should be encouraged to go to
Afghanistan, Rice said: "I think that Afghans are pleased to get the
help that they can get" but added "we need to be respectful of Afghan
sovereignty."
