Pakistan Keeps Blocking Nato Convoys for Several Weeks, Gilani


Pakistan's Prime Minister, Yousuf Raza Gilani said that his country continues blocking of Nato convoys into Afghanistan for several weeks, the BBC reported.

"Yes there is a credibility gap, we are working together and still we don't trust each other," the Premier told the BBC.
Pakistan blocked Nato supply routes into Afghanistan after recent Nato air strike which killed 24 Pakistani troops at their checkpoint last month.
The air strike on 26 November deteriorated the already strained relations between Washington and Islamabad.

The supply route of Nato troops in Afghanistan that passes through Khyber Pakhtonkhwa is a significant land supply route of the forces.
After the air strike Pakistani government asked the US to leave Shamsi airbase in southwest of the country.
Pakistani media earlier reported that the US has vacated the base this week.
