Foreign combat troops are expected be out of Afghanistan within three years. But a decade into their mission, security remains precarious. In Sar Howza in Paktika province, a new district governor has been appointed - the second in just four weeks - after the previous governor was killed in a Taliban attack. Mohammed Hakim, a mullah or religious teacher thought to be linked with the attack, is now in custody. But many people in the district fear the Taliban will take revenge on them if he is not released. With no permanent security presence in most villages, the government cannot get an influential foothold - a challenge that is experienced all along Afghanistan's border with Pakistan. Al Jazeera's Bernard Smith reports from eastern Afghanistan.

According to recent reports, Muslims in Myanmar are suffering a tragic plight. Reports shows several hundred of nearly one million Muslims have been killed since June 28 during clashes in the western region of Rakhine. The UN has described Myanmar Muslims as one of the most persecuted minorities in the world. They are deprived from basic rights including education and employment and are subject to forced labor, extortion and other coercive measures. The government of Myanmar refuses to recognize the Muslim minority. Human Right Watch Organization reported earlier in July that "Burmese security forces have been implicated in killings and other abuses since the sectarian violence in northern Arakan State began." This is while the United States and the European Union are largely silent about the human right violations and the massacres targeting Muslims is Myanmar. Nobel Peace Prize laureate Aung San Suu Kyi who is deeply admired by the United States' and the British government is criticized because of her silence on the plight of Muslims. The head of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) urged Myanmar's pro-democracy Aung San Suu Kyi to help end violence against the Muslim community in her country.

Clinton backed Kosovo's hopes of joining the EU and outlined the US stance. Hillary Clinton, US Secretary of State: "Let me be absolutely clear, not only here in Pristina but to anyone listening or watching throughout the region: the United States is firmly committed to Kosovo's sovereignty and territorial integrity." Kosovo's Prime Minister Hashim Thaci confirmed his commitment to talks with Serbia and stated that the route to EU membership was only possible through dialogue. Hashim Thaci, Prime Minister of Kosovo: "The normalisation of relations of Kosovo with Serbia is in the mutual interest of Kosovo and Serbia. The European Union and US have powerful investments in peace, stability, regional cooperation and for the Euro-Atlantic perspective." Clinton and Ashton visited Serbia just the day before and the Serbian and Kosovan leaders are due to meet in Brussels in a few days.
