President. the amendment is currently before -the Foreign Relations Committee and will remain there until the Foreign Assistance Act is reported out from the committee. The timing of this action is very much in doubt at this point because of the committees request for the 5year military assistance plan and the Presidents refusal by invoking Executive privilege. I would like to comment on the recent events in South Asia and have divided the news accounts into the following items: the SovietIndia Treaty. the U.S. shipment of arms. the refugees. the prospect of famine. the trial of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. events in Pakistan. Senator KENNEDYS trip to India. and Senator PERCYS trip to India and Pakistan. Press accounts on these issues will be inserted at the end of my remarks along with editorial opinion. news analysis. and letters to the editor.
