On his part, President Musharraf said the two countries have decided to "strategize" their broad-based and long-term partnership. Unusually high security was in place for Bush's first official trip. US military helicopters hovered in the skies as Bush arrived at the presidential secretariat, called Aiwan-e-Sadr, where Pakistani soldiers received him with a guard of honour. Main intersections were declared as "red zones" in the capital and paramilitary troops equipped with electronic and manual surveillance devices patrolled the city. The last US president to visit Pakistan was Bill Clinton in March 2000. --SPA 14 00 Local Time 11 00 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/336514
