Pakistan is likely to attend the NATO Summit, which will decide the
reopening of the US and NATO military supplies heading to the war-hit
neighbouring country Afghanistan, this weekend in Chicago.
It has been reported that President Asif Ali Zardari will attend the summit that is going to be held from May 20 at Chicago, US along with a delegation.
Pakistan closed the route in protest against the killing of 25 soldiers of its troops by the US warplanes. This had made the diplomatic relation between Islamabad and Washington bitterer.
However, Washington expressed regret for the incident and has been urging Islamabad to reopen the route.
In the meantime reports suggest that Obama administration could send Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to Pakistan soon to end the deadlock in relations with Islamabad over the reopening of NATO supply lines, which is facing a delay owing to Washington’s refusal to express a public apology over the November incident.
Hamid Karzai, the Afghan president, is also expected to attend the meeting, where NATO nations will work on their plans to withdraw most of their troops by the end of 2014.India has also been invited in the conference.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is the world’s strongest military and political alliance.
