Sri Lankan army chief thanks Pakistani counterpart for 'incessant support'
May 03, 2017, 07:15: The Sri Lankan army chief today met his Pakistani counterpart and thanked him for the "incessant support" to the island nation's fight against terrorism.
Chief of the Sri Lankan Army Lt Gen AWJC De Silva called upon the Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa at the General Headquarters in Rawalpindi, the army said.
"The visiting General thanked Pakistan Army for incessant support to Sri Lankan's fight against terrorism," the army said in a statement.
Pakistan was a key supplier of weapons and aircraft for Sri Lanka's military in its decade-long civil war against the LTTE that ended in May 2009 with the defeat of the Tamil Tigers.
Lt Gen De Silva "expressed full confidence in Pakistan's ability to completely overcome the menace in near future," the statement said.
The army chief appreciated Pakistan Army's achievements and contributions towards national and regional security.
"Both sides reaffirmed their determination to work together for enhancing regional security and continuing existing military-to-military cooperation," the statement said.
General Bajwa also thanked his Lankan counterpart for his visit and acknowledgement of Pakistan's active contribution in the fight against militancy.
