The Pakistan Ex-servicemen Association (PESA) has said President Asif Ali Zardari should not have attended Chicago Summit which offered nothing but disappointment and extended pressure to do more. Obama and leaders of other major Nato countries couldn't spare time for formal meetings with President Zardari, it said.
The Executive Council meeting of PESA observed that Pakistan served US interests for six decades but its sacrifices and contributions have been forgotten which is evident from the anti-Pakistan attitude of the US.
Secretary General PESA Syed Masud-ul-Hassan told Business Recorder that EC of the association felt that Nato could not have a free ride after 11 years of supply operations, which caused damage and tax evasion worth billions of dollars.
The US has planned to contain China by transforming India as a regional super power for which it wants Balkanization of Pakistan, it was observed. Former military leaders said that America has punished renowned Kashmiri leader Dr Ghulam Nabi Fai on charges of working for ISI. How can she claim that Shakil Afridi is innocent who they admit has worked for CIA, they questioned.
Aid cut and other threats over Dr Afridi's conviction are sheer blackmailing which will make relations more problematic.
PESA is headed by Lt. Gen Ali Kuli Khan (Rtd) and Admiral Ahmad Tasnim (Rtd) is SVP, Air Marshal Asghar Khan (Rtd) is the patron-in-chief and Air Chief Marshal Kaleem Saadat is the patron of the organisation.
