‘N’ to protest NATO supplies’ reopening: Nawaz

LONDON: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz President Nawaz Sharif on Wednesday said that his party was not taken into confidence on the reopening of NATO supplies and would strongly protest against it.

Talking to Daily Times on his arrival in the British capital, Nawaz said the US had not apologised for the Salala border post attacks. He said the opening of the supplies should be conditioned with assurances from the US that there would be no drone attacks in the Tribal Areas, no operations of the kind that took out Osama bin Laden. He said the terms and conditions reached with the US by the government on the issue were unacceptable. The PML-N chief called for bilateral relations based on mutual respect and equality. On the issue of dual nationality for parliamentarians, he said his party was consulting overseas Pakistanis on the issue, and said no decision should be taken without their input. asif mehmood
