Josh Earnest, White House spokesman said that Afghan security forces limited the loss of a very dangerous attack.
He said that suppressing the attack in a very short spin of time indicates improvement of the capacity and ability of Afghan security forces.
Citing the attack on Parliament, Earnest said that the attack indicates that Taliban militants are still able to carry out precise attacks.
The Taliban attack on Afghan Parliament took place on Monday.
It began with a suicide car bomb detonation at the front gate of the parliament and later a group of militants armed with heavy and light weapons started shooting at the parliament.
But Afghan security forces were able to quell the attack in less than an hour. One Afghan soldier killed six militants who were trying to enter to the parliament and more likely carry out a carnage inside.
