Senate body rejects US policies infringing Pak sovereignty
ISLAMABAD: The Senate Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs on Friday underscored the importance of maintaining good relations with the US, but rejected its policies infringing upon Pakistan’s sovereignty. The committee affirmed the importance of safeguarding Pakistan’s sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity and rejected any tendency or approach, which cost the national honour and dignity. The committee recommended the government to reject the US policies that violate Pakistan’s sovereignty, territorial integrity and resist the unilateral actions on Pakistani territory, particularly the drone strikes, which were “unacceptable”.
