Army chief General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani will be in Russia from October 3-6 to push Islamabad’s efforts to improve relations with Moscow ahead of the pull out of foreign troops from Afghanistan.
Kayani will hold talks with Russia’s top military leadership and is expected to meet some political leaders, sources said.
Gen Kayani’s visit was in the planning for months, but got additional focus because of cancellation of Putin’s visit to Pakistan, which would have been a landmark trip because he would have been the first Russian president to visit Pakistan.
Kayani is expected to meet President Vladimir Putin.This will be the Pakistan Army chief’s first visit to Russia since 2009, when he had made a trip at the invitation of his counterpart, sources added.

  1. Why and what need of sending army head to Russia? Were our senior politicians died or where they have gone or why they are hesitating to visit freindly and sincere super power of the world.this visit will create lots of problems.If the elected members and oppositions are making excuses to explain Russian leaders the various problems facing by Pakistan under the freindship of greedy and dual policy holder America.Russia is a great,gentle,honest ,faithful and responsible neihbor and freind of Pakistan and Russia is much better than America.We love Russia and hate U.S.A

    • Can you kindly explain the reasons of this love affair with Russia? You can say it is better for Pakistan. My dear in international diplomacy their is no love or hate only "interest" is key of relation. What you said about America I agreed on actual grounds

  2. new love story with old tactics that how to set their price high in front of ex lover.
    By the way why he will meet to some political leaders there all alone without any political representation of Pakistan.????
    He can take our ever smiling president with him while he will be in meeting with Russian political groups Zardari will be kept on smiling contrary to tense face of Kiyani and this might bring good impression to Russian people,He must take Zardari with him that in case of any accord for National Interst, Zardari can offer his thumb impression.

  3. Pakistani who armed talibans to fight against russians now have the audacity to say they love russia is amazing. There is no shame!

  4. .
    Don't worry …
    .
    Neither Kiyani, nor Zardari can seduce Putin. Putin won't touch these sweetheartswith a ten foot pole …
    .
    The love story may end in next US admin looking to help out these dames' rear end …

  5. this is golden oppertunity to make relation with Russia after deceving them in Afghan War to praise So called friend, the US, for the sake of dollars only. Think, if there are two polls, the US and the Russia, then the equility can be seen in world peace , now America is sole super power and all in all to dictate the UN and NATO. This leads America to do everything for its interests. So if the military, the real maker of foreign policy, is decided to strenghten its terms with Russia then why it is being so criticised???

    We should support COAS for this cause.

    Pak-Russia relation Zinda bad!

  6. Kala Kola works good. Look at kiayani. His face may show his age but he does not have one single white hair. If these generals and politicians try to decieve us with their looks, they most ceratinly will decieve us with their words. kiayani is a coward who has decieved us into thinking that he is a brave and patriotic man but his record shows that he is the most incompetent general Pakistan army has ever produced. I hope he enjoys his free trips because in a few years we will enjoy watching him rot after he is tried for treason.

  7. It can be a good move, if its based on real objectives and ties with Russia and China nexus. It will be better for Pakistan.

    But if it only being used to pressurise USA if that is not listening to Pakistan properly, then Pakistan would loose trust of both.

    Russia will only want a long term strategice ties with Pakistan, they will not be interested in short term policies.

  8. This is a great news and i hope that Pakistan's relationship with russia should mean something to this region. I hope it will enhance stability to the region unlike the americans that aren't really helping the situation. Pakistan should think for its own future.
    Russia will open many links to energy, defence sales, construction & lots of other trade.
    LOVE TO ALL MY RUUSSKIE FRIENDS

  9. first defend the country and stop the drones..another shopping trip for the general..wine.dine..and have fun..while the people continue to die.

  10. That is our foreign policy God will protect us no harm in making relationship but tilting and turning any one learn from establishment,army and civil Govt, i hate to say but what the hell this country gonna do for their having this kinds of chiefs,leader they are begger and begger has no price or value where they go and they only see their foot should foccused mishape happend inside specialyin Balochistan by their blunder

  11. It's the beginning of an alliance Muslims will make with Christians at the end of times as per Surah RUM and Ahadith…

  12. pak-russian friendship is bigger-than-bear, more red-than-tomatoes and gets "higher"-than-vodka!!

  13. For now a General's visit to Russia is suiting, but once we have a TRUE democratic and non-corrupt government in the next elections then it may be more appropriate for a the politicians and not generals.

    Secondly, pakistan MUST make alliances in the future based on protecting our national interest and not depend on one big power alone. Make as many friends in the global arena and keep our enemies closer than our friends.

    Here is pakistan's national interest:

    1. No violation of our sovereignity
    2. Eradication of corruption, lets start from top of the line zardari and nawaz
    3. national health
    4. national education
    5. protection of environment
    6 technology based society and industry
    7. Value added products in agriculture and productivity

    lets put our national emotions aside and start working with our brains.

  14. Small minds work only for military matters. Intellectually bankrupt Pakistanis always think that they can live off on being courtiers of one or other country…hahahah They want to blackmail USA lols

  15. I read every comment on here,each one of you think you are so smart? I'll believe it when you elect a real party to run this country,until then,all of you are talking loud saying nothing worth nothing.You want to make a difference,let your vote count,until then,shut the h**e**l**l** up.

    • I want to know that why people made their stupid comments on any type of issue, is all institute in our country based on paper no body is working their and making and taking decisions sooooo plz calm down and concentrate on ur responsibility and duty. GOD HELP THOSE WHO HELP THEM SELF.
