Altaf says Nato supplies blockade won’t affect US

LONDON: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Chief Altaf Hussain has said that blocking Nato supplies or protest and sit-ins against drone attacks would not have any impact on Washington.

In a statement issued here on Friday, the MQM chief said if the protesting parties including the Jamaat-e-Islami and the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf were sincere in their protest, they should observe a hunger strike outside the US embassy or the Prime Minister House until Washington stops the aerial strikes.

Hussain said the JI, PTI and other extremist religious parties should refrain from playing with nation’s sentiments and have mercy on Pakistan.
