    Deputy Defense Secretary Bob Work and Army Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, met at the Pentagon yesterday with Gen. Raheel Sharif, Pakistan's chief of army staff.

    In a statement summarizing the meetings, Pentagon Press Secretary Navy Rear Adm. John Kirby said the leaders discussed regional security issues and their commitment to an enduring partnership.

    “They also emphasized the importance of sustained and substantive dialogue as we continue to develop the bilateral military-to-military relationship,” he added.

    This was Sharif's first official visit to the United States since becoming the chief of army staff in November 2013, Kirby said.
