Information Minister Pervaiz Rashid Saturday termed the Friday drone attack as ab American strike on dialogue process efforts, saying that the government will not allow the process to be killed.
Talking to reporters, the minister repeated that in spite of the recent drone attacks in North Waziristan, the government is determined to hold talks with Taliban to restore peace in the country.
“I must say this (Friday) drone attack was actually attack on the dialogue process efforts with Taliban,” Rashid said, “I hope the other side (Taliban) will also adopt the way of dialogue.”
Responding to a query, the minister said that stopping NATO supplies was not the solution, as drone strike had continued when Pakistan had halted these supplies after the Salala incident in 2011.
