The U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan has fired a deputy commander in the training program for his remarks critical of the Afghan government and President Hamid Karzai.

Army Major General Peter Fuller, deputy commander for programs in the NATO Training Mission, made “inappropriate” comments and has been relieved of his duties, the coalition said in an e-mailed statement today.
