SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 21-SUBMISSION OF A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION CALLING FOR SUSPENSION OF MILITARY ASSISTANCE TO PAKISTAN
Mr. CASE. Mr. President, Senator Mondale and I are today introducing a concurrent resolution that calls for the suspension of military sales and military aid to Pakistan until she conflict in East Pakistan is resolved. Joining us as cosponsors are Senators Bayh, Mcgovern, Muskie, and Sanbe.
We strongly regret the tragedy of the present conflict in East Pakistan, and we support the stated policy of the administration not to interfere in the political or military aspects of the quarrel. But we feel that the United States must be neutral in deed as well as word.
We are deeply disturbed by the prospect of American arms or other military material being used in the strife, and we feel this is inconsistent with our policy of noninvolvement. There is obviously little the United States can do to prevent American weapons already in the hands of the Pakistanis from being used, but we can make perfectly clear that no more military supplies will be forthcoming.
The United States is currently selling Pakistan replacement parts for lethal and nonlethal military equipment. This includes ammunition. Moreover, in October 1970 the administration announced a “one shot" sale of military equipment to the Pakistani Government which involved armored personnel carriers, modified patrol aircraft, fighter planes- F-104's-and bombers-B-57's. None of this equipment has yet been delivered, but our offer to sell it has not been rescinded although we reportedly are not presently talking to the Pakistanis about deliver)'.
The only military assistance currently being granted to Pakistan is a training program for Pakistani officers in the United States.............
