Time For Drone Attack Policy To Match Rhetoric: PM Sharif

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has reiterated that the issue of drone attacks will be raised.
Sharif addressing the first cabinet meeting of the new government, said the policy of making statements to people and still allowing US drone attacks would not be allowed under his tenure.
The prime minister added the US government would have to respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Pakistan.
“All stakeholders will be consulted when formulating a policy regarding drone attacks,” Sharif said.
Earlier during the meeting, the prime minister made it clear that corruption would not be tolerated and also stressed that the issue of loadshedding would be resolved. Prime Minister Sharif said he worked for the interest of the country and not his own personal interest.
The prime minister also issued a warning to his federal ministers, telling them that their performance would be evaluated every three months.
