PAKISTAN VOWS TO FACILITATE AFGHAN SECURITY
Pakistan's Foreign Office spokesman Aziz Ahmad Khan pledged on 28 April that Pakistan will "do everything possible" to prevent any action detrimental to Afghanistan from being carried out from Pakistani soil, the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP) reported. The spokesman said Islamabad supports the Afghan Transitional Administration and has backed the 2001 Bonn Agreement, adding that there is a very good understanding between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Khan denied reports that Afghan Transitional Administration Chairman Hamid Karzai during his 22-23 April visit to Islamabad provided his hosts with a list of wanted Taliban members who are allegedly hiding in Pakistan (see "RFE/RL Newsline," 24 April 2003). However, he said the Afghans did mention some names and that Pakistan gave its "categoric assurance" that it will investigate the issue. AT
