Clinton spoke Saturday with Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani. The State Department says Clinton expressed condolences to the soldiers’ families and to the Pakistani people and reiterated America’s respect for the country’s sovereignty.
Clinton had hoped Pakistan would attend an international conference on Afghanistan scheduled for Monday in Germany. But the bombing has called Pakistan’s attendance into question.
Pakistan has refused to join in the US investigation of the bombing and has moved to shut down supply lines the US uses to get food, fuel and equipment to troops in Afghanistan.
