Pakistan has decided to boycott the Bonn Conference on Afghanistan next month in protest against the cross-border NATO air strike that killed at least 24 of its soldiers, a move being seen as a “major setback” to US-led efforts to bring the Taliban to the negotiating table.
The decision to boycott the crucial conference to be held on December 5 to discuss ways to end the conflict in Afghanistan was made during an emergency meeting of the Defence Committee of the Cabinet chaired by Premier Yousuf Raza Gilani, ‘The News’ daily reported today quoting its sources.
