President Asif Ali Zardari and his visiting Afghan counterpart Hamid Karzai today held wide-ranging talks focussing on jointly fighting terrorism, strengthening bilateral ties and ways to address regional issues related to peace and security.

Karzai, who arrived in Pakistan late this afternoon for a two-day visit,his first since re-election as Afghanistan president, drove to the presidency and met Zardari soon after flying into the Chaklala military airbase in Rawalpindi.

The two leaders expressed their resolve to remove "misunderstandings of the past' and to jointly move forward in the fight against militancy.

During one-to-one and delegation-level talks, Zardari stressed the need for enhanced interaction between the two countries to better cope with terrorism and extremism.

He said Afghanistan's unity, sovereignty and territorial integrity are of "great importance" and described terrorism as a common challenge to both countries.

Karzai is expected to call for the handing over of senior Afghan Taliban leaders, including Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, who were arrested in Pakistan over the past few weeks, Afghan sources said.

There is no extradition treaty between the two countries and Pakistan has said it will consider any formal request from Afghanistan for the handing over of Mullah Baradar and the other Taliban commanders.
