The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee also vowed to use what he called all the tools of statecraft to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons.
Obama's speech brought a quick response from the presumptive Republican candidate, Senator John McCain.
McCain criticized Obama for laying out a strategy on Iraq and Afghanistan before consulting with U.S. and local officials in those two countries
"I note that he is speaking today about his plans for Iraq and Afghanistan before he has even left, before he has talked to General Petraeus, before he has seen the progress in Iraq, and before he has set foot in Afghanistan for the first time. In my experience, fact-finding missions usually work best the other way around. First you assess the facts on the ground, then you present a new strategy."
McCain has long been a champion of the Bush's administration's military surge strategy in Iraq and says a similar approach is required in Afghanistan.
McCain also told his audience in New Mexico that he knows how to win wars and that his military experience would make him a better commander in chief.

民主党候选人也誓称要用尽他所谓的一切方法阻止伊朗发展核武器。
奥巴马的讲话迅速得到了共和党候选人，参议员麦凯恩的回应。
麦凯恩指责奥巴马未经与美国以及驻两国当地官员磋商便公布了伊朗和伊拉克战略。
我注意到奥巴马今天所谈到的伊朗、伊拉克计划，时间是在他离开之前，是未与彼得雷乌斯将军会谈，也未见识到在伊拉克的进展，另外他一次都没有涉足阿富汗。依据我的经验，实地调查往往是最见效的。首先评估现实依据，再做出进一步战略计划。
麦凯恩一直是布什政府在伊朗增兵战略上的拥护者，并且他称一个类似的战略同样适用于阿富汗。
麦凯恩也告诉新墨西哥州的听众，他了解如何赢得战争，他的军事经验能够使他成为一个相对更好的总指挥。
