UK, Pak pledge 'anti-terror' unity
The leaders of Britain and Pakistan moved yesterday to shelve a row over a British attack on Islamabad's security record, pledging to step up their cooperation in the fight against terrorism.
President Asif Ali Zardari had vowed to confront British Prime Minister David Cameron over recent claims suggesting that elements in Pakistan back the "export of terror," which triggered the diplomatic spat.
But both leaders put on a show of unity after their talks near London, saying the bond between Pakistan and the former colonial power was unbreakable, while Cameron accepted an invitation to visit Islamabad soon.
