CIA chief to discuss joint intel team in Pakistan

None

CIA Director Leon Panetta and senior Pakistani officials will focus on the size and scope of US intelligence activities in Pakistan during a second day of talks Saturday, as both countries work to repair ties fractured by the American raid that killed Osama bin Laden, a Pakistani official said.

 

The operation that killed bin Laden plunged an already strained relationship between the CIA and Pakistan's main intelligence agency, the ISI, to new lows and threatened cooperation that is key to the US fight against al-Qaida and Taliban militants battling foreign troops in Afghanistan.
