U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said the leaking of over 90,000 classified documents in website Wikileaks is dangerous to troops stationed in Afghanistan, and promised an aggressive investigation will be conducted by FBI.
Speaking to reporters at a Pentagon briefing with Admiral Mike Mullen, Gates said the leak could be dangerous for the United States and its allies in Afghanistan. Gates also warned the leak may damage US relationships and reputation in the world, as Afghans and others may no longer trust the United States to keep their secrets safe.
