you forget here you are dealing with a super power USA . also NATO of 34 countries . pakistan is not on that seat as china is .they are our largest trade partners arms suppliers donors and supporters in world . we have no oil like iran or less population like NK . we are not in great position now even in economics . today they said sorry accept it otherwise you have to say sorry when we will have no money and go to IMF -WB then we will do it with their terms . first make a strong economical country make good gov and better country with good voice in world politics then say whatever my brother its not good time for pak already . god know what they agreed on money TTP BLA and others its just secrets between kiyani and john .

if we are dealing even with super power, does it mean it has license to kill our citizens, violate our border, and kill our soldiers?

However, having said this, its been a great demonstration of guts by Pakistan to resist USA pressure for over 7 months on the issue of GLOC. Giving up was a foregone conclusion, but most people expected this to last a couple weeks. Sustaining it for 7 months is a great achievement in my view

I think Pakistan army should deploy its Ah-1z cobra helicopters to escort US tankers, in order to prevent it from attack from insurgents.

It appears we need more security from your gunships than those insurgents.

wrong news!
They have not been opened YET!

 

[Hello_10]

Why say sorry over a Telephonic conversation? Why there isn't any official Pentagon statement issued with a 'formal apology'?

This looks like a 'fake' apology just to give an excuse and open supply lines by the more money monger PPP.

three things are to be cleared:

1st, why did the Pakistan's rulers accepted to have just $250 fee while US was once agreed for $1000 per vehicle? what type of 'sorry' is this, which has resulted in so serious loss? why didnt the pakistani rulers cleared that 'sorry' is OK but why dont you want to pay even as much as you was agreed once, the $1000?

Pakistan, stung by the suspension of American military assistance last year, at first demanded a fee of $5,000 for each truck that crossed its territory from the port in Karachi to Afghanistan. Before the November attack, NATO had paid $250. Pakistan later reduced that demand to about $3,000 a truck; the United States had offered $1,000 per vehicle.

In the end, however, American officials said Pakistan agreed to keep the fee at $250 a truck. In return, the United States is expected to reimburse Pakistani up to $1 billion for costs incurred by some 150,000 Pakistani troops carrying out counterinsurgency operations along the border with Afghanistan, the officials said.

2nd, yes its about 'Formal Apology' also? why it looks like that Mrs Clinton did something on her personal level which may be her own thinking also? i mean, why didnt the US's foreign affairs formally apologize which would then be confirmed by Mr Obama also?

3rd, do this also mean that US is now going to stop drone attacks on the civilians of afghan and pakistan? are they going to drop bombs on the terror camps of Baloch militants also? are they going to stop anti national activities against pakistan from now onward? are they going to stand on their words to leave that region by 2014, with stopping bombing on the residential area from now onward? do this 'sorry' means for stopping the similar incidents in future including drone attacks, or, now the bombing will be done in mass????????

Its good for both

Pakistan can have the satisfaction that US apologised.

US can have the satisfaction that they dint word it in.

The NATO supplies open, anyways you see it, all this was about the ego of US and Pakistan..

I think you need to do that mate.. There is a difference between
I am Sorry for You
and
I am Sorry to you..

But hey, believe that you got your apology if thats what you want..

there is another kind of sorry that we usually tell indian "I am sorry IN you"

The US has also agreed to pay for the road maintenance leading from Karachi to the border, also all funds leading to military and civilian co-operation have been re-opened. A compromise has been achieved, was the order of the day, it was in neither countries national interest to continue to have bad relations indefinitely, bear in mind, even the UK has not received a formal apology for blue on blue incidents.

Pakistan will continue not to charge any transit fee in the larger interest of peace and security in Afghanistan and the region. This is a tangible demonstration of Pakistan's support for a secure, peaceful, and prosperous Afghanistan and our shared objectives in the region.

Pakistan should take a promise from US... or agreement with US, if there is another incident like salala..... the routes should be closed permanently....
