RAWALPINDI: The Commander of US and Nato forces in Afghanistan General John Allen is expected to arrive in Pakistan tomorrow, according to the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR).

General Allen will hold talks with Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff General Ashfaq Pervez Kayani, the ISPR press release said on Wednesday.

The interaction will focus on reviewing the progress made in the implementation of recently evolved border coordination measures and the standard operating procedures.

General Allen visited Pakistan last month after the country decided to reopen the supply routes for transportation of goods to Nato troops stationed in Afghanistan following a eight-month shutdown.
