British PM visits Afghanistan
"Prime Minister David Cameron arrived in Afghanistan on Monday for an official visit," the official told Xinhua but declined to give his name.
However, he added that Prime Minister Cameron and President Hamid Karzai would hold a joint press conference on Tuesday.
Britain has over 9,500 troops in Afghanistan serving within the framework of the NATO-International Security Assistance Force ( ISAF) to help stabilize the war-battered nation.
Foreign dignitaries often pay unannounced visits to the militancy-plagued Afghanistan and leave the country secretly due to security reasons.
