Adm. William J. Fallon, the senior American military commander in the Middle East, arrived for a one-day visit and called on President Pervez Musharraf’s successor as army chief, Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani. Mr. Musharraf is on a tour of European capitals. Little detail of the meeting with Admiral Fallon, held at military headquarters in Rawalpindi, was made available. The commanders discussed “the overall security situation in the region,” a spokesman for the Pakistan Army said. Admiral Fallon was recently quoted as saying that the United States military would play a greater role in training Pakistani forces and would provide technical advice to its troops.
