Pakistani Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani has criticized US military action in his country.
Gilani told the Reuters news agency on Tuesday that any unilateral military action by the United States to hunt down militants in Pakistan would be a violation of national sovereignty.
He made the remark after senior US officials criticized Pakistan for failing to root out a group of Taliban insurgents.
More than 1,000 people took part in an anti-US rally in the country's largest city, Karachi, on Tuesday.
Gilani plans to summon representatives from Pakistan's political parties on Wednesday to discuss how the nation should deal with the United States.
Bilateral relations became strained after US special forces killed Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in Pakistan in May without giving advance notice to the Pakistani authorities.
