A group of former Pakistani military generals have opposed restoration of NATO supply line and said the route should not be reopened unless US stops drone strikes in Pakistan and officially apologises for the unprovoked attack of November 26, 2011, on Pakistani check-posts, which claimed 24 lives.

The Pakistan Ex-servicemen Society (PESS) has said the stubborn American attitude will in no way help normalise tense Pakistan-America relations, the meeting observed.

It said that Pakistan should boost efforts to forge cordial relations with India as tensions are not in the interest of either side.

Neighbouring countries who have declared each other as most favoured nations cannot remain enemies, it said.

These observations were made in a meeting of PESS chaired by its President Lt. Gen. (Retd) Faiz Ali Chishti.

The participants said that Pakistan and India should withdraw all the combat troops to peacetime locations in Siachen conflict zone as cordial relations between two countries should not remain confined to politics and trade.

They said that the standoff is claiming precious lives and its impact on environment as well as economies of Pakistan and India cannot be ignored.
