ISLAMABAD -- Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri will arrive here Tuesday at the start of a two-day visit to Pakistan, officials said. Hariri will hold talks with President Pervez Musharraf on bilateral, regional and global issues of mutual interest, they said. The Lebanese prime minister's visit will be the first since Musharraf seized power in a military coup in October 1999. Musharraf visited Beirut in January during which he also met Lebanese President Emile Lahoud and backed Lebanon's right to recover land held by Israel.
