Qureshi to meet NATO Chief, will discuss NATO operations in Pak territory

Qureshi to meet NATO Chief, will discuss NATO operations in Pak territory
Islamabad: As tension escalates between NATO and Pakistani authorities, Pakistan's Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi will meet the NATO Chief Anders Fogh Rasmussen in Brussels, to discuss the recent operations in Pakistani territory.

Pakistan is refusing to allow NATO convoys to Afghanistan through the Khyber Pass in protest against the air-strike which killed three Pakistani soldiers.

However, the NATO chief is expected to request resumption of NATO supply lines from Pakistan into Afghanistan.

While carrying out operations in Pakistani territory last week, NATO helicopters had killed three Pakistani security personnel. Pakistan responded to this by temporarily shutting down the NATO supply route into Afghanistan. Major protests against the attack were also carried out in Pakistan.
