Speaking today at the Afghan Foreign Ministry in Kabul, Musharraf said that neither Pakistan's government nor the Directorate of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) were involved "in any kind of interference in Afghanistan."
Musharraf's comments come a day after he and Afghan President Hamid Karzai agreed to cooperate in combating what they described as their "common enemy" -- terrorism and extremism.
Officials in Kabul have accused Islamabad of training armed militants and sending them to attack U.S.-led coalition troops and NATO forces in Afghanistan.
