RAWALPINDI: General John W. Nicholson, commander Resolute Support Mission (RSM) and US Forces in Afghanistan called on Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa at the GHQ, an Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) press release said on Monday.
The two discussed the regional security situation and border management issues. The army chief raised concern over the blame game perpetrated by some quarters in Afghanistan and USA to undermine Pakistan’s contribution to the war on terror.

He said that despite provocations, Pakistan will continue to act positively as we consider defeating terrorism in the national interest.
Gen Nicholson reiterated his appreciation of the professionalism of Pakistan Army and his admiration for the resilience of people of Pakistan. Both agreed on the need for continuous engagement and coordination for peace and stability in the region.
US Ambassador David Hale was also present during the meeting.
