US drone attacks will jeopardize war on terror: PM Gilani

DAVOS: Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani warned United States on Friday, the war against terrorism, being fought by Pakistan, will be endangered if US remains bent upon carrying out drone attacks on Pakistan soil. “Our efforts to curb cross-border terrorism from Afghanistan will enormously be affected in the event of persistent US policy of drone strikes on Pakistan soil against suspected militants.” This PM Gilani outlined talking to media after partaking World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos. PM informed mediamen, his PPP-led government in Pakistan had been profoundly successful to part the local tribes with the terrorists however, he feared, US drone incursions have not been proving fruitful to help Pakistan in its efforts against war of Terrorism. “US administration led by President Obama has no differences with us as we both have identical goals to accomplish but US drone intrusions on Pakistan soil have raised negative sentiments towards US among the people of Pakistan.” Gilani stated and applauded President Obama’s method to win the hearts of people to become triumphant.
