Pakistan and the United States agreed on Saturday to enhance coordination in matters of security and border safety, amid growing ties between the two countries.<\/p>\n

Both sides agreed to enhance collaboration in bilateral security and border management. It was mutually agreed to further strengthen existing cooperation with the Anti-Terrorist Assistance Programme and the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs.<\/p>\n

Both sides agreed to equip border security agencies, coastal guards and other institutions with modern US-supplied equipment.<\/p>\n

The interior minister said\u00a0that modern technology would enhance the capacity of border security agencies and coastal guards, and\u00a0advanced software would be used to identify individuals involved in crimes abroad.<\/p>\n

He added that US support in activating the FIA\u2019s Counter-Terrorism Wing would prove highly beneficial, making it the first federal anti-terrorist wing with effective coordination with provinces.<\/p>\n

The interior minister further said that the NCCIA was\u00a0carrying out an extensive crackdown on illegal call centres across the country. He noted that advanced software was\u00a0vital for preventing financial fraud and terror financing, and US cooperation with the NCCIA in this regard was highly significant.<\/p>\n
