1. (C) Pakistan Military contacts confirm that the April 19
Pakistan Military-Afghan National Army confrontation over the
location of the Shkin-Angor Adda area fence transpired as
reported reftel. Pakistan Military officials were unable to
meet with Office of Defense Representative - Pakistan
officials on April 20 but will meet with them on April 21.


2. (C) Pakistan Military contacts report that the fence
location question is "on hold" until President Musharraf and
President Karzai meet in Turkey on April 30. National
Security Advisor Tariq Aziz told Charge midday April 20 that
no Afghan or Pakistani officials have attempted to contact
him to discuss the incident. The first Aziz knew of the
tensions was from press accounts on April 19th. In his
conversation with Aziz, Charge raised the points that the
Bureau of South and Central Asian Affairs discussed with
Ambassador Durrani on April 19. Aziz said he would follow up
on the matter.
