Allied forces will not be welcome in Tribal Areas, says Qureshi
2008-07-27
The Pakistani people will not welcome allied forces in the Tribal Areas, Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has said. Talking to a British TV channel, he said that there was no need for allied forces' action in the Tribal Areas. The foreign minister said that the Pakistani forces were capable enough of dealing with militancy and that the situation would not improve if allied forces launched an attack on the Tribal Areas. He said that Pakistan did not receive any positive response from Afghanistan over its suggestions on how to deal with terrorism, adding that the allied forces should perform their responsibilities effectively in Afghanistan.

#1  Japan and Germany didn't particularly welcome the US with open arms, either. They also didn't have a whole he$$ of a lot to say about it. If Pakistan doesn't do what's necessary to effectively gain sovereignty over the tribal areas, they will either be conquered or turned into glass. There are no other choices.
