ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Dec. 22 (UPI) -- The U.S. chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff thanked Pakistani military and intelligence officials Monday for their efforts to fight terrorism.
Navy Adm. Mike Mullen met with Gen. Ashfaq Kayani, chief of the Army staff, and Lt. Gen. Ahmed Shuja Pasha, director-general of Pakistan's interservice intelligence agency, a statement said.
Mullen visited Islamabad after being in Afghanistan to meet with President Hamid Karzai.
