RAWALPINDI: The head of foreign forces stationed in Afghanistan on Monday met Army Chief General Raheel Sharif to review the current security situation along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.

The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement that General John F Campbell, commander Resolute Support Mission and United States Forces in Afghanistan, called on the Army chief at the General Headquarters in Rawalpindi.

“During the meeting, matters of mutual interest and regional security with particular emphasis on coordination along Pak-Afghan border were discussed,” the statement added.

The visit is part of the regular exchanges between the foreign forces stationed in neighboring Afghanistan and Pakistani military authorities.

There has been an increase in interaction between Pakistan, Afghanistan and Nato forces in the weeks after the attack on a military-run school in Peshawar on December 16.

Pakistani security agencies have shared evidence both with Afghanistan and US about the linkage between the sanctuaries of Tehreek-e-Taliban in Kunar and Nuristan and Peshawar massacre.

There have also been exchanges between Pakistani and Afghan commanders in recent weeks.
