Pakistan asks US 'to restrict CIA activities'

Pakistan has asked the US to reduce the number of CIA agents in the country and to limit drone strikes along the Afghan border, US media reports say.
The reports quote unnamed officials and come as US and Pakistani spy chiefs met at the CIA's US headquarters.
An official spokesman described those meetings as "productive".
Relations between the two countries have been frayed since a CIA contractor shot dead two men in the city of Lahore earlier this year.
The case stoked anti-American feeling across Pakistan and led to angry demonstrations - particularly when it emerged that he worked for the CIA. Hardline religious parties were keen to see him punished.
The New York Times reported that about 335 US personnel, CIA officers and contractors and special operations force personnel were being asked to leave Pakistan. It quoted an unnamed Pakistani official said to be closely involved in the discussions.
Pakistan also wants the removal of CIA contractors on assignments that Pakistan have not been informed about, Pakistani officials told the paper.
Yesterday's reports follow a candid interview that Pakistan's President, Asif Ali Zardari, gave to Britain's Guardian newspaper on Monday saying that the Afghan war was "destabilising Pakistan".
He also rejected a recent White House report which said Pakistan lacked its own plan to fight insurgents in the country, adding that most US politicians lacked an understanding of the situation.
