Pakistan guarantees supplies to NATO soldiers

NATO commanders meeting in Brussels have been assured by Pakistan's army chief, General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, that supply lines will remain open to alliance troops in Afghanistan, even with attacks occurring along the Afghan-Pakistani border.

General Kayani urged the alliance to work with local tribal leaders as a means of pooling resources to fight rebels in the border regions.

He said it was wrong to try to seal off border areas by force, without involving local leaders.

NATO has about 70,000 troops in Afghanistan and is currently running an operation called "Lionheart," which involves US-led coalition forces in Afghanistan giving assistance to Pakistani troops fighting militants in Pakistan's tribal district of Bajaur.

Afghan, Pakistani and NATO leaders say restoring security to the border region is vital to Afghanistan's success and Pakistan's stability.
