The Obama Administration has ruled out sending American troops to Yemen immediately as the government there was cooperating with the United States against Al-Qaeda.
"We're not talking about that (US troops inside Yemen) at this point at all," said John Brennan, the Deputy National Security Advisor for Counter terrorism and Homeland Security in an interview to Fox News.
"The Yemeni government has demonstrated their willingness to take the fight to Al Qaida. They are willing to accept our support. We're providing them everything that they've asked for," he said, adding that the Government is Yemen has made some real progress against Al-Qaeda.
Over the past month, Al Qaida has taken a number of hits, and a number of Al Qaida leaders in Yemen are no longer with us because of this determined and aggressive action, he said.
Brennan said the Nigerian terror suspect, charged with blowing up a US plane on December 25, had received training and explosives from the Al Qaeda in Yemen
