WASHINGTON: The United States has humiliatedPakistan by carrying out with impunity its covert operation in Abbottabad that killed al-Qaeda chiefOsama bin Laden, Defence Secretary Robert Gates said today.
"If I were in Pakistani shoes, I would say I've already paid a price (for terrorist safe havens). I've been humiliated. I've been shown that the Americans can come in here and do this with impunity. I think we have to recognize that they see a cost in that and a price that has been paid," Gates told reporters at a Pentagon news conference.
Stating that he hasn't seen any evidence so far that indicates that top Pakistani leadership knew about the presence of bin Laden in the country, Gates said that his assumption is that somebody in Pakistan knew about it, which is being investigated by the United States right now.
