ISLAMABAD, Oct 7: President General Pervez Musharraf has emphatically rejected a foreign media report that Pakistan was supporting Taliban militia and reiterated his government’s commitment to fight terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.

President Musharraf was talking to Commander-in-Chief of the US Central Command (Centcom) Gen John P Abizaid who called on him here on Saturday to discuss emerging geo-strategic environment in the region with special reference to initiating fresh efforts to combat terrorism.

The Daily Telegraph of London had reported on Friday that Nato commanders from the US, Britain, Canada, Denmark and the Netherlands were demanding their governments to get tough with Pakistan over its alleged support to the Taliban militia.

The president told Gen Abizaid that UN’s September 11 report had clearly said that Pakistan was not supporting Taliban. On the contrary, it was extending all its support to strictly deal with the Taliban and Al Qaeda in Afghanistan and elsewhere, he added.
