Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar has said that it is not possible to walk along United States in the current circumstances, we do not want pace and stability in the region at the cost of our country.
Talking to media at parliament house here on Friday, she said that we
wants to play a positive rule in the region, adding that the decision
to block NATO supply is final and there is no possibility to reconsider
this decision.
She said that the government blocked the NATO supply line in light of
the parliamentary resolution, adding that until we cannot protect our
interests we are unable to play a positive role to protect interests of
others.
She said that until the sovereignty of our country will not be
protected we do not have any reason to join any alliance, adding that we
are unable to walk with US in current circumstance and the basic point
of cooperation with any country is the protection of our sovereignty and
interests.
She said that if the sovereignty of our country will be protected
then the relations with any country are beneficial and will be
continued, but after the incident of NATO attack on Pakistani check
posts the DCC decided to shut the supply of NATO forces to Afghanistan.
She said that the parliament passed the resolution that if again the
sovereignty of Pakistan would be attacked then we should shut
immediately the supply of NATO and the Prime Minister decided to shut
the NATO supply in the light of resolution of parliament.
She said for reconsidering the or changing the decision on NATO
supply we would bring a big change in our policy and only the parliament
has authority to amend the policy and it is the wish of Prime Minister
Gilani and President Zardari that the resolutions of the parliament be
implemented.
She said that if the aim of the world is to establish peace in the
region and it is also our aim but it should not be established at the
cost of Pakistan, adding that the change in decision regarding attending
Bonn Conference is unlikely because it is the decision of federal
cabinet, which would demand dynamic shift in policy to reverse the
decision. SANA
