Pope John Paul has arrived in Kazakhstan for a four-day visit.
He was greeted at the airport by President Nursultan Nazarbayev
before
travelling into Astana, the capital of the former Soviet state.
Kazakhstan borders on several Central Asian countries which
could be involved
in military action against Afghanistan by the United States.
Some Vatican sources are saying, however, that the Americans
have reassured
the Pope that no strikes will take place while he is travelling.
