Latest update News about,LONDON ― Prime Minister David Cameron is meeting Pakistan's President Asif Ali Zardari on Thursday ― the first time since the British leader accused Pakistan of exporting terrorism. Zardari will join a dinner being held in honor of his late wife Benazir Bhutto at Cameron's country residence Chequers, near Aylesbury, west of London. Cameron's office said the dinner was arranged by international aid minister Alan Duncan, a friend of Bhutto for over 30 years.
Last week in India, Cameron accused elements in Pakistan of allowing the "export of terror," suggesting not enough was being done to tackle terror groups inside Pakistan's borders.
The comments prompted Pakistan's intelligence chief, Lt. Gen. Ahmed Shujaa Pasha, to cancel a planned trip to London and for Britain's envoy in Pakistan to be summoned to Islamabad. Dozens of protesters in the port city of Karachi also burned an effigy of Cameron in protest while Pakistan officials in London said the comments stood to undermine cooperation between the two countries.
