u.s./pakistan relation. now, in looking at the future relation, the important is the change in pakistan's pool sis whi -- policies which provide the basis for cutting this process. these are areas in which our priorities coincide with u.s. priorities and the progress we made to provide opportunity for better communication. the most important is counter terrorism, we inherited this crisis on our borders after 9/11 and it came to us for a very large extent our travel is ungoverned and very long. so when the terrorists and those groups which are fighting russians and many others, they came to our part. they, initially, were looking for safety, but gradually they started expanding to other parts. so by 2007 they had become a major threat to those areas and they -- the pakistanny taliban, joined hands with the people, come from there and some other groups also supporting them. so then the frequency of suicide attacks and bomb blasting started increasing from 2004 onward. and i think by last count, total casualties
