Boycott of Bon conference could not be ruled out after NATO attack: PM Gilani

Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani has warned that boycott of Bon conference could not be ruled out after the NATO forces attack on the Pakistani security check posts in Mohmad Agency, adding that joint sitting of the parliament would be summoned soon to discuss the NATO aggression.

In an interview with a US TV channel on Monday PM Gilani said that the relations between Pakistan and US have reached at its extreme after the NATO/ISAF attack.
Prime Minister said that there would be “no more business as usual” with Washington after NATO aircraft killed two dozen Pakistan troops.
The Pakistani military insisted that it had not fired first in the incident, and it said it had told NATO its aircraft were firing on friendly troops.
Meanwhile, a top adviser to Afghan President Hamid Karzai warned that Afghanistan and Pakistan could be on a path to conflict.

Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani said that Pakistan was re-evaluating its relationship with the United States.
He said the South Asian nation wanted to maintain its relationship with the United States as long as there was mutual respect and respect for Pakistani sovereignty.
But Gilani highlighted incidents such as the killing of the Pakistani troops and a U.S. raid into Pakistan to kill Osama bin Laden as violations of his country’s sovereignty.
The prime minister also said Pakistan had not yet decided whether to boycott next month’s Bonn conference on the future of Afghanistan. SANA
