The President In The World
Terrorism, extremism, drug trafficking, organized crime, need to be seen in terms of their root causes. They thrive on ignorance, deprivation and poverty. Our countries need greater cooperation to effectively tackle them; it cannot be treated in isolation.

President's Trip to Sri Lanka
President Asif Ali Zardari arrived in Colombo, Sri Lanka on 27 November 2010 for a four-day state visit to discuss cooperation on security and trade issues with his counterpart, Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapakse. President Zardari was the first head of state to visit Sri Lanka after President Rajapakse assumed office for a second six-year term on 19 November 2010. President Zardari held talks with Sri Lankan leaders on enhancing economic cooperation within the ambit of the Free Trade Agreement signed between Sri Lanka and Pakistan in 2002. The two countries extended cooperation to share experiences in order to curb terrorism and improve coordination between the two countries.
A joint statement issued at the end of the four-day visit condemned terrorism in all its forms. "Both leaders agreed on the need for an increase in the frequency of high level visits between Sri Lanka and Pakistan, including at the summit level and at the level of the Parliaments, especially based on Parliamentary Friendship Associations established in each of the national Parliaments," it said.
