US special representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan Richard Olson on Monday met army chief General Raheel Sharif and discussed security situation in the region, particularly Afghanistan.

During the meeting held at the GHQ in Rawalpindi, Olson appreciated Pakistan’s efforts in the fight against terrorism, the ISPR said.

Earlier on December 9, General Raheel assured Afghan President Ashraf Ghani full support for peace and stability in Afghanistan.

The meeting comes as top officials from Pakistan, Afghanistan, China and the United States met in Islamabad to finalise a roadmap for resurrecting a stalled peace process in Afghanistan.
