"Karzai: Fixed end date needed for Afghan war", end to airstrikes, home searches.
"President says world leaders must set a time limit for Taliban's defeat."
"If there is no deadline, we have the right to find another solution for peace and security, which is negotiations," Karzai was quoted as saying in a statement from his office.
"The Afghan president also told the U.N. team that airstrikes by international military forces and searches in Afghan homes must stop, the statement said. Karzai has made that demand repeatedly."
