Pakistan criticizes US raid on bin Laden

Pakistan criticized the American raid that killed Osama bin Laden as an "unauthorized unilateral action," laying bare the strains the operation has put on an already rocky alliance.

 

A strongly worded Pakistani government statement warned the US not to launch similar operations in the future. It rejected suggestions that officials knew where bin Laden was. Pakistan criticism has been focused on the US breaching the country's sovereignty. The Obama administration has said it did not inform the Pakistanis in advance of the operation against bin Laden, for fear they would tip off the targets. (AP)
