A Foreign Office official has disclosed that an Afghan military delegation will be arriving in Pakistan tomorrow (Thursday) to discuss security-related issues with their Pakistani counterparts.
At a media briefing in Islamabad, the official said that the meeting is taking place to allay concerns of both sides. The briefing was held as a follow up on Afghanistan’s National Security Adviser Dr Rangin Dadfar Spanta’s visit to Pakistan.
