David Cameron's recent India visit, his discussions with Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari and situation in the Af-Pak region figured prominently during a telephonic conversation US President Barack Obama had with the British Prime Minister on Friday.
Obama spoke to Cameron, hours after the British Premier hosted Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari in London, during which the two leaders sought to bury a diplomatic row between the two countries.
"The prime minister updated the President on his recent visit to India and Turkey," the White House said in a statement after the telephonic conversation between the two leaders.
Cameron had last week visited India for bilateral talks with his counterpart Manmohan Singh.
Speaking at a public interaction in Bangalore, Cameron has asked Pakistan to stop "export of terror" to India and Afghanistan.
The comments triggered a diplomatic row between the two countries. While Pakistan summoned the British High Commissioner to convey its sentiments over the comments, Cameron's office made it clear that he will not go back on his comments.
Obama and Cameron also discussed the current situation in Afghanistan and Pakistan and today's meeting between Cameron and Zardari.
"The leaders discussed Afghanistan and Pakistan, with the Prime Minister noting his recent constructive meeting with Pakistani President Zardari," the statement said.
"The two leaders also reviewed the security situation in the region and progress in Afghanistan," it said.
Obama and Cameron also discussed ongoing efforts to advance peace in the Middle East, and agreed on the need for the parties to move to direct talks as soon as possible, the statement said.
