STORYLINE:
Afghan President Hamid Karzai met the leader of Pakistan's largest opposition party, Benazir Bhutto, in Islamabad on Thursday during a two-day visit to Pakistan.
After the meeting at Karzai's hotel in Pakistan's capital, Bhutto told reporters they had discussed means of combating the extremism and terrorism troubling the region along with trade and other issues.
"I explained to (Afghan) President (Hamid) Karzai that the Pakistan People's Party hoped to win the elections and form the government and we looked forward to working very closely with Afghanistan," Bhutto told reporters.
"We to believe that it is essential for both of our countries, and indeed the larger Muslim world, to work to protect the interests of the Islamic civilisation by eliminating extremism and terrorism," she added.
Bhutto, who returned from exile in October to lead her opposition party in January 8 parliamentary elections, has repeatedly accused Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf of failing to curb the rise of Islamic militants since he seized power in a 1999 coup.
During an unusually cordial meeting on Wednesday, Karzai and Musharraf pledged to share intelligence and tighten border controls to quash rising militant attacks.
Talks between the two leaders, who frequently argue over the source of cross-border attacks, came amid a wave of violence in Pakistan blamed on local Islamic extremists in the largely lawless border region.
A recent US intelligence report indicated that al-Qaida may be regrouping in North Waziristan, a tribal region where militants have staged almost daily attacks against Pakistani security forces in recent months.
