Afghanistan's deteriorating security situation is at the centre of talks at the U.S. Presidential retreat at camp David. The Afghan leader Hamid Karzai is holding discussions with George Bush. President Karzai is expected to raise questions about mounting civilian casualties during NATO operations against the Taliban. From Washington, let's get a report now from the bbc's Jane O'brien. >> The talks at camp David have become something of an annual event with the two presidents keen to put on a united front and show mutual support. Mr. Karzai in particular wants the U.S. To step up pressure on Pakistan to do more to stop foreign fighters crossing the border into Afghanistan. >> Of course, yes, we will talk about the situation on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. I think there's no doubt that things have changed in terms of even Pakistani perception of what needs to be done in the frontier areas, and that's why the Pakistani army has been much more active there. >> Also high on the agenda is the rise in the number of Afghan civilians mistakenly killed by the international forces fighting the insurgency. Mr. Karzai wants assurances from Mr. Bush that more will be done to protect them. >> For domestic political reason, president Karzai , as he does at home, will here as well say, for heaven's sake, you've got to be more careful. You've got to tell the forces targeting and that when there are civilians in harm's way, they should cease and desist. >> Overshadowing the talks is the ongoing hostage crisis involving the 21 South Korean volunteers kidnapped by the Taliban. The U.S. Is under pressure from South Korea to intervene, but supports Mr. Karzai 's refusal to strike any deal that may require further hostage taking. >> Jane O'brien, bbc news, Washington.
