[Iran Press TV] Islamabad has summoned the US ambassador to voice its concerns over a recent US drone strike on Pak soil that reportedly killed Afghan Taliban chief Mullah Akhtar Mansour.According to a statement released by Pakistain’s Foreign Office on Monday, David Hale was called in by the Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Foreign Affairs Tariq Fatemi.
During the meeting, Fatemi reiterated Islamabad’s stance that the strike was carried out in violation of Pakistain’s illusory sovereignty and that it also breached a UN charter that was developed to guarantee the inviolability of the territorial integrity of states.
Fatemi also stressed that such measures would hinder the ongoing efforts by the Quadrilateral Coordination Group that is trying to broker peace talks between the Taliban and the government of Afghanistan.
On Saturday, the US Department of Defense announced that it had mounted the strike against Mansour "in a remote area of the Afghanistan-Pakistain border region."
