Islamabad: Pakistan Tehrik e Insaf (PTI) spokesperson Dr Shireen Mazari on Thursday said that United States (US) now under severe pressure due to protest against drone attacks which stopped NATO supplies to Afghanistan via Pakistan.
In a statement, Mazari said that the US curtailed drone attacks in Pakistan due to these protest not on Pakistan request.
She said that the protest against drone attacks caused huge loss to the US and this was the reason they minimized the attacks in Pakistan.
On Wednesday, US newspaper Washington Post report that the Obama administration has sharply curtailed drone strikes in Pakistan after a request from the government there for restraint as it pursues peace talks with the Pakistani Taliban.
However, the report added that the US would continue to strike top al Qaeda targets and those who posed a direct threat to Americans.
