None
US Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte arrived in Islamabad on Thursday as pressure builds on Pakistan to take stern action against Islamist militants following last month's attack on Mumbai.
Negroponte is expected to meet President Asif Ali Zardari and will have talks with Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi, a foreign ministry official said. US embassy spokesman Lou Fintor said Negroponte was discussing "regional issues" with Pakistani leaders. (Reuters)
