Nato supplies to be blocked during PTI sit-in
[Dawn] The federal government on Sunday decided to stop the supplies to NATO...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Originally it was a mutual defense pact directed against an expansionist Soviet Union. In later years it evolved into a mechanism for picking the American pocket while criticizing the style of the American pants... troops in Afghanistan for two days on April 23 and April 24, keeping in view Pakistain Tehreek-e-Insaaf's plan to stage a sit-in in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar to protest against drone attacks in the tribal areas. The provincial government has given directions for a security plan to ensure law and order during the PTI's sit-in protest. Sources said that the federal and provincial government decided to stop NATO oil tankers and food supplies during the protests to avoid any incidents of violence. Posted by: Fred 2011-04-18 |
