Musharraf warns against unilateral action on militants SINGAPORE, Jan 11 (Reuters) President Musharraf said any unilateral action by U.S.-led coalition forces against militants in Pakistan will be regarded as an invasion, Singapore's The Straits Times reported Friday. He said Islamabad will resist any entry by coalition forces in the tribal areas to hunt down militants, regarding that as a breach of Pakistan's sovereignty. ?I challenge anybody coming into our mountains. They would regret the day,? he told the newspaper in an interview conducted in Rawalpindi. Musharraf also said he would resign if a government that emerged from elections, now scheduled for next month, sought his impeachment. He criticised Hillary Clinton's proposal to deploy a U.S., and possibly a British, team to safeguard Pakistan's nuclear assets. Her statement, Musharraf said, was an ?intrusion into our privacy, into our sensitivity ... She doesn't seem to understand how well-guarded these assets are.? ?If impeachment were their intention and they don't want to go along in a harmonious manner, I would like to quit the scene,? Musharraf said when asked what would happen if Pakistan People?s Party emerged a winner in the elections and mounted a bid to oust him with the support of Sharif's party. ?If that happens, let me assure you that would be leaving office before they would do anything.?
