LAHORE: Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani said on Sunday that Pakistan has not sought any apology from the United States on the Salalah post incident but is seeking new directions in relations with America on key issues.

Speaking to the media at his residence on Sunday, the prime minister said the Parliament will debate ties with America on Monday with input from key stakeholders before the new rules of engagement and proposals are settled.

The relations between the countries touched a new low following the killing of 24 Pakistani soldiers, by US troops, on their border post in the restive tribal region in November last year.

“We want the full support of Parliament on this issue, which will also deal with Pakistan's ties with Nato and ISAF as the two organisations combine a total of 48 countries,” he said.
