As a middle way to mend ties, the United States is set to say sorry instead of we apologise to partially accept Islamabads demand regarding the November killing of 26 Pakistani soldiers by the Nato forces.
The US is ready to officially say sorry to Pakistan. It is not ready to use the term we apologise. Islamabad is likely to accept the sorry note and hug Washington again, a senior government official said.
Relations between Pakistan and the US have never normalised since the killing of Al Qaeda founder Osama Bin Laden on May 2, 2011.
The November attack on Pakistani military checkposts killing 26 soldiers further worsened the ties and Pakistan blocked the Nato supplies to Afghanistan creating a big problem for the US-led forces in Afghanistan.
Overt and covert meetings since then have not been able to bridge the gap between the two uneasy allies. Islamabad has been demanding of the US to apologise for the killing of the Pakistani soldiers which the US denied.
Now the US wants a middle way out and they are ready to come up with an official sorry to settle the dispute, the official said. According to sources, Washington was also considering undertaking the rehabilitation of road infrastructure in order to open up suspended supply routes, and various options were under consideration for Congressional approval in this regard.
Authorities in Islamabad have estimated that the heavy flow of Nato/Isaf supplies over the past decade have caused damage worth $ 1.6 billion to Pakistans road infrastructure. There was initially a huge gap between the estimation worked out by the Pakistani side and the US, as Islamabad forwarded its
proposal to impose a fee of $ 5,500 per container while Washington kick-started its offer with the meagre suggestion of $ 223 to $ 500 per container.
Now we have also suggested a middle way to find a solution to this stalemate, but the ultimate decision will be taken by political leadership of both countries, the official added.

Sorry is a very common term in West. It doesn't mean anything. People say this word 100 times in day even someone cross your path, people say sorry. Sorry is the most useless word to say as it doesn't mean sorry. After killing 24 innocent lives, you just say sorry while the say people apologize if they hurt any animal. Our soldier's blood is cheaper than these pet animals. They have ego for 3rd world countries only while at home, they don't take a moment to apologize. On other, they become champion of human rights and saviour of this planet from global warming. Dual faced and hypocrites people.
