Pakistan's Foreign Minister Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri said on Saturday that Pakistan would more actively share intelligence with Russia to assist in fighting terrorism, news reports said. "Our intelligence service will be more actively providing Russia with its information for catching terrorists. Sharing information is crucial in fighting terrorism," Kasuri said in Moscow, where he was on a brief stopover en route to Tajikistan, according to Interfax news agency. Russian officials say Chechen separatist rebels have ties to international terrorist networks, including al Qaida.
Kasuri said Chechens were among about 70 people killed in recent Pakistan's air strikes on militant positions in the Waziristan region.
