PAK-MULLEN 3 LST

Mullen acknowledged that there had been an improvement
in the trust between Pakistan and US intelligence agencies but
indicated that more could be done in this field.
He appreciated the role played by the Pakistan Army
and the Inter-Services Intelligence in arresting and capturing
terrorists.
Replying to a question, Mullen said the US has its own
system of tracking the movement of terrorist across the
Pakistan-Afghanistan border and information in this regard
"does not come from the Indians".
Mullen denied the US had played any role in
influencing the Pakistan government to give a three-year
extension to army chief Gen Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, saying:
"Pakistan is a sovereign country and it is an internal issue
of Pakistan."
He also said there are "no secret American troops" in
Pakistan. All US troops in the country were there at
Pakistan's request for training purposes. PTI
