ISAF Commander meets General Kayani

Both generals are discussing border coordination and war on terror.ISAF commander General John Allen Thursday called on Pakistan Army Chief General Ashfaq Pervaiz Kayani during his one-day visit. Both will focus on improving security along the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Allen s visit comes after Pakistan and the United States signed a deal Tuesday governing NATO convoys travelling to Afghanistan until the end of 2015, well beyond the scheduled withdrawal of the bulk of NATO troops in 2014. Allen s visit is a further sign of efforts to repair the fractious war on terror alliance with Pakistan, which plunged to its worst crisis over the November strikes and the US killing of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan in 2011. Lieutenant General Zaheer ul-Islam, the chief of Pakistan s spy agency is also currently in the United States, the first head of the Inter-Services Intelligence agency to visit Washington in a year.
