A delegation of US Senators led by former first lady Hillary Clinton met Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf and discussed with him the regional situation, bilateral relations and the Indo-Pak dialogue process.

Musharraf briefed the delegation about Pakistan's view on the situation in Afghanistan and told the Senators that a stable and strong Kabul was in the interest of the region.

He expressed Pakistan's commitment to continue its support and cooperation to the world community in the fight against terrorism and to ensure peace and stability in Afghanistan, state-run APP quoted him as saying on Monday.

Musharraf also briefed the US Senators about the Indo-Pak dialogue process, saying that a peaceful solution to the Kashmir issue would ensure durable peace in South Asia.

The visit by Hillary came weeks after Musharraf's government announced a plan to plant landmines and build a fence along parts of its frontier with Afghanistan to stop Taliban and Al Qaeda guerrillas from crossing over.
