Pakistan Prime Minister



Pakistan's Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gillani discusses his three-pronged strategy to defeat extremists in Pakistan during a exclusive interview with the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review at his Islamabad home. The Prime Minister says his country faces a dizzying array of jihadi groups launching near-daily terrorist attacks on its army, police and people. This nuclear-armed nation of 170 million is “a frontline state fighting extremism and terrorism” despite U.S. doubts about its commitment, its prime minister declares.
