Pak more violent than Afghan, says Karzai: Leaks
"Karzai and Brown spent a significant portion of their meeting talking about the situation in Pakistan and the September 6 presidential elections," said the leaked cable, classified as "confidential" by Political Minister Counselor Greg Berry.
"Karzai is reportedly "warm" on PPP leader Zardari, but encouraged the U.S. and UK to "open channels" to PML leader Nawaz Sharif," it added.
According to the document, during the meeting, "Karzai averred that given the increase in AQ training activity on the Pakistan side of the border, Pakistan is actually a more violent country than Afghanistan."
