The United States said Monday that it was "very concerned" over an weekend attack which saw Afghan President Hamid Karzai escaped unharmed.
"We are very concerned about it, the terrorist threat is real, it is deadly, and defeating this enemy has to be a top priority of the United States, of the Afghan government, of the Iraqi government, and the NATO alliance who is there working with the Afghan government," White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said.
"I think that they'll continue to look at how they could have done better in order to make sure that this does not happen again," Perino said.
Three people were killed when militants opened fire on Afghan leaders and international representatives who were attending a military parade in Kabul on Sunday.
The Taliban have claimed responsibility for the attack that also injured about 10 people.
President Karzai has ordered an investigation into the incident.
