ISLAMABAD -- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad arrived in Pakistan's capital Islamabad on Monday morning on a stopover visit to the country.
Ahmadinejad is expected to meet Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf and Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gillani during his three-hour stopover.
The leaders of the two sides will mainly discuss their energy and electricity cooperation, local media said.
Iran is prepared to supply Pakistan 1,000mw electricity daily on emergency basis through the bordering area to satisfy Pakistan's growing needs, said Pakistan's daily The News on Monday.
The Iran-Pakistan-India (IPI) gas pipeline project, a 7.5-billion-dollar project to deliver natural gas from Iran to Pakistan and India, will also be on the agenda of Ahmadinejad's visit.
After the stopover in Islamabad, Ahmadinejad will proceed to Sri Lanka to inaugurate some projects completed with Iran's assistance.
