Pak-Army, ISAF to cooperate

November 15, 2012

According to a press release from the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR), Deputy Commander of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) Lieutenant General Nick Carter met Chief of the General Staff Pakistan Army General Waheed Arshad in the latest of a string of engagements intended to boost the military-to-military affiliation between ISAF and Pakistan, as well as cooperation to bring peace and safety to the Afghanistan-Pakistan region.

“ISAF and Pakistan are committed to bring peace and security on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, so these discussions are very important,” Carter said. “We are committed to achieving enduring solutions to security issues.”

Carter and Arshad discussed the common goals to encourage stability in the region, as well as pressuring terrorist groups and strengthening cross border cooperation along the Pak-Afghan Border.
