| | Pakistani Arms Control Plan 'Constructive', Says US |
 | | Led by Senate Chairman Wasim Sajjad, the Pakistani delegation completed this week a round of meetings with a variety of U.S. officials, including Secretary of State Baker, Vice President Quayle, Defense Secretary Cheney and National Security Advisor Scowcroft, as well as with a number of members of Congress. |
 | | Although he flatly denied that Pakistan is seeking a resumption of U.S. aid, Sajjad and other delegation members expressed strong opposition to the Pressler amendment on the grounds that it is both unfair and ineffective. |
 | | Sajjad called the amendment "discriminatory" and noted that "it is one of the few (U.S.) laws that specifically targets one country." Moreover, "it doesn't address the real object, which is non-proliferation," he added. |
