ISLAMABAD: United States Ambassador to Pakistan Cameron Munter on Thursday revealed that supplies for the Nato forces active in neighbouring Afghanistan were still continuing through Pakistan's air space, DawnNews reported.

The relations between Washington and Islamabad had plunged to its lowest ebb after Pakistan stopped all Nato supplies to Afghanistan through its borders in backdrop of a Nato attack on a check post in Salala which claimed the lives of 24 soldiers.

Speaking to journalists here after attending a ceremony, Munter stressed the need for continuing talks between the US and Pakistan and said dialogue is necessary to resolve issues.

He expressed the hope that the ties between the two allies, which got strained after the Nato attack, would normalise soon.

Munter said that the US needs its allies' help for sustainable peace in Afghanistan. Peace would return to Afghanistan with the help of Pakistan and the US, he added.

He further said that the US was assisting Pakistan in coping with its energy crisis.
