Gilani condemns US Balochistan resolution
"This resolution violates our sovereignty and we condemn it," Gilani told reporters in a televised interaction with media in Karachi. Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar described it as an "isolated move by a few individuals". "It was aimed to create distrust between the peoples of the two countries," she said in a statement. Khar expressed the hope that "this latest tendentious move will not be allowed to sail through the House by a vast majority of US Congressmen who continued to support friendly relations between the two countries". "We encourage all the parties in Balochistan to work out their differences peacefully and through a valid political process," she said. Copyright AFP (Agence France-Presse), 2012
