Nato supply line will re-open when security improves: FO
2010-10-16
[Dawn] Pakistain will only re-open a supply route for coalition troops in Afghanistan once public anger over Nato incursions eases and security improves, the foreign ministry front man said on Sunday.
Oddly enough, ever more of our supplies are going elsewhere than via Pakistan, and our money is following. Do enjoy the result, Pakistan, just as your economy is suffering from those little floods.
Militants on Saturday threatened more attacks on tankers carrying fuel to Afghanistan through routes in Pakistain to avenge the incursions.

"Unless the reaction cools down and we make sure that the supply line is secured, we cannot reopen it," Foreign Ministry front man Abdul Basit told Rooters.

Angered by repeated incursions by Nato helicopters over the past week, Pakistain blocked a supply route for Nato troops in Afghanistan after one such strike killed three Pak soldiers on Thursday in the northwestern Kurram region.
