Pakistan's cabinet has agreed to reopen the supply line to US-led NATO troops in Afghanistan. According to anonymous reports, the decision to reopen it is expected to be officially announced at the NATO’s Chicago summit next week.
The shipping route had been the main line of communication to forces in Afghanistan before it was closed down, after a NATO air strike in November 2011, killed 24 and wounded 13 Pakistani soldiers.
The issue has created tensions between the two sides with US and NATO officials reportedly threatening not to invite Pakistan to the Chicago summit.
Now that a deal seems to have been reached, news has come that NATO has invited Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari to join the talks.
