Pakistan's FO condemns US drone strike in N Waziristan
[Dawn] Pakistain's Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on Monday in condemnation to the US drone strike that had killed two suspected gunnies in Mir Ali Tehsil of North Wazoo tribal region on July 13.
These unilateral strikes are a violation of Pakistain's illusory sovereignty and territorial integrity, the statement said adding that, Pakistain has repeatedly emphasised the importance of bringing an immediate end to drone strikes.
The Government of Pakistain has consistently maintained that drone strikes are counter-productive, entail loss of innocent civilian lives and have human rights
...which are usually entirely different from personal liberty ...
and humanitarian implications and that such strikes also set dangerous precedents in the inter-state relations.
