Pakistan Ambassador to the US, Hussain Haqqani has said that war against terror is Pakistan's own war. Talking to private TV channel he said Benazir Bhutto and many other Pakistanis have been killed in different terrorists' acts.
He added that people that were killed in Tribal and others parts of the country were Pakistanis and not the US citizens. To a question he said, "We wanted to deal with US on equal basis. But it was also a reality that we are at the receiving end and US is at other end."
The Ambassador said, there are many similarities in Pak-US policies also. To another question, he said the UN passed a resolution that it is the responsibility of all member countries to take practical steps against terrorism. He added that the agreement cannot be made with militants.
