Lahore, July 12(ANI): The United States should hold talks with Pakistan to work out an exit strategy from war-torn Afghanistan, Prime Minister Syed Yousaf Raza Gilani has said.
Afghanistan should also be included in these talks, The Nation quoted Gilani, as telling Waqt TV in an interview.
He made it clear that Pakistan would not like to be left alone- as had been done after the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan. The vacuum created then had been filled by militants, a situation Pakistan would not like to emerge this time.
About cooperation between Pakistan and the US, the prime minister said that intelligence sharing was going on, but added the US should not carry out operations unilaterally.
"Defeat or win", Gilani said, "both countries should jointly conduct operations."
The prime minister said that information about the presence of some high value target in Pakistan should be shared. Likewise, if an operation were required, it should be carried out jointly. (ANI)
