Islamabad: In an interview with a foreign news channel, ex-President General Parvez Musharraf claims agreements have been made between the U.S. and Pakistan for the use of drones. He [Musharraf] admits that on occasion he did sanction and allow U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan.” The Dispatch News Desk (DND) reported.
When drones first appeared in the skies over Pakistan’s tribal region, Pervez Musharraf was president. And for years after, Pakistan has continually denied any agreement with the U.S. to allow for the use of drones. In 2008, Musharraf resigned as president and went into exile. Now he’s made a return and is planning to reclaim power.
