Obama, Pakistani Prime Minister To Meet Amid Easing Tensions
WASHINGTON (AP) — The biggest deal about President Barack Obama's White House meeting with Pakistan's leader today is the fact that it's happening, a testament to the rocky relationship between the countries.
Hot-button issues include drone strikes and Pakistan's alleged support for the Taliban.
Officials in both countries are hoping to scale back tensions that escalated after the 2011 Osama bin Laden raid.
