LONDON, Jan 23 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's comments that NATO troops stayed off the front line in Afghanistan were "deeply disappointing", a British minister said on Friday, noting that many European soldiers had died supporting American-led operations.
An estimated 3,500 soldiers from NATO countries died in Afghanistan. The United States suffered the most losses in absolute terms: Nearly 2,500 U.S. service members were killed in the 20-year war. But per capita, Denmark suffered even more severe losses, burying 43 soldiers in a population, at the time, of about 5.5 million.
