Pakistan will reopen a key border crossing used to transport supplies to NATO troops in Afghanistan, authorities said Saturday — the 10th day of a blockade that has raised tensions with Washington and left stranded trucks vulnerable to attacks.
In a short statement, the Foreign Ministry said it decided to reopen the border after assessing security and that authorities on both sides of the border were coordinating to resume the supply traffic smoothly.
I assume that our apology for shooting at Pakistani forces dumb enough to shoot at us was enough; and that the Pakistanis reminded their frontier paramilitary troops that shooting at Americans is not a harmless sport.
