KABUL , Afghanistan ( CNN ) -- A meeting between the leaders of Pakistan and Afghanistan was canceled Friday when bad weather prevented Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari from traveling to the Afghan capital , Kabul . Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari ( pictured ) has met Afghan counterpart Hamid Karzai before . An official in Pakistan 's Foreign Office said the meeting with Afghan President Hamid Karzai and top government officials will be rescheduled for the near future . The visit was to have taken place amid ongoing warfare and tension along the Afghan-Pakistan border and was to have focused on the nations cooperating in the fight against terror . Some of the Taliban militants conducting attacks in Afghanistan have been based in Pakistan 's North West Frontier Province and nearby tribal regions . The group 's resurgence has prompted U.S. commanders and the incoming Barack Obama administration to put more of a focus on confronting militants along the volatile border . In the past , Afghan and Pakistani leaders have blamed the other for the security problems in the region . Zardari was to have been accompanied on the trip by the governor of North West Frontier Province , as well as his foreign minister and adviser on internal affairs . The two presidents also planned to discuss the expansion of bilateral relations and trade . Both men have met before , when Karzai visited Pakistan in September to attend Zardari 's swearing-in ceremony .
