PESHAWAR (Pajhwok): Pakistan and Saudi army chiefs have held talks on regional security, including efforts to bring peace to Afghanistan.

Currently on an official a visit to Riyadh, Gen. Qamar Javed Bajwa met his Saudi counterpart Gen. Fayiadh Bin Hamed Al Rowaily on Wednesday.

Military cooperation between Islamabad and Riyadh would have a positive impact on peace and security in the region, Bajwa said in a statement from the Inter Services-Public Relations (ISPR).

The two sides conferred on issues of common interest, the regional security situation, including the Afghan peace process, and military-to-military cooperation.
