Already we have heard. and the Congress has been informed. that the administration has resumed bilateral assistance to Pakistan. But what of the other nations of South Asia? What of Bangladesh whose needs are even more pressing? What of India. which carried nearly singlehandedly a massive refugee burden created by the Pakistan military repression of last year? Why cannot this administration give the same sense of priority to the needs of all the peoples of South Asia? Are we to learn that our great Nation. with its long tradition of humanitarian service. will actually resume bilateral military assistance to Pakistan before it resumes bilateral food assistance to Bangladesh?
