Islamabad: In a sudden move, US Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage and Assistant Secretary Christina Rocca have put off their visit to Pakistan from October 2 to hold talks with President Pervez Musharraf and other officials on a host of issues, including Indo-Pak ties and resurgence of Taleban on Pakistani soil.

"They are not coming. The visit has been postponed due to scheduling issues," Pakistan Foreign Office Spokesman Masood Khan said.
