Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz on Monday condemned an alleged CIA air strike on a border village that killed at least 17 people, but said he would go ahead with a planned trip to the United States to build business ties, AP reported. Aziz said he is still scheduled to leave Tuesday for the US, where he said he would talk about security issues but also meet business leaders to encourage foreign investment. The leader called Friday's air strike on a village near the Afghan border "very regrettable" but said, "I don't think that takes away from the fact that Pakistan needs investment." |
