To my knowledge, they have never met and for clear political reasons it
seems exceedingly doubtful they would engage in open discussion. Could you
give us more context concerning the "alleged dialogue"?  What was the
content?  How did reports emerge and from what sources?  In which sector
of the Pakistani press did these reports appear?

Best,
