The new Afghan President Ashraf Ghani will arrive in Islamabad tomorrow (Friday) on a two-day official visit to Pakistan.
Foreign Office Spokesperson Tasneem Aslam confirmed Ghani’s visit during her weekly briefing in Islamabad earlier today.
The spokesperson said, “He [Ghani] will hold bilateral meetings with President Mamnoon Hussain and Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and discuss bilateral relations and regional security situation.”
She added that issues pertaining to border security will also come under discussion during meetings with the top leadership.
Ghani’s visit comes up through the trip undertaken by Chief of Army Staff General Raheel Sharif to Kabul, which was widely seen as the ice breaker between the two sides after the presidential elections in Afghanistan.
