NEW DELHI, MARCH 20: Former US Senator Larry Pressler, author of the legislation that banned arms sales to Pakistan, today criticised President Bill Clinton's visit to Islamabad, saying that the trip would "legitimise" the military regime in that country."I have a great concern that President is going to Pakistan which will legitimise that government and I think Pakistan will stop its task of moving towards normalcy if the American government was supportive of what it does," Pressler, told Star News.He also flayed the "repealing of most of the Pressler Amendments against Pakistan... which would help Pakistan to start an arms race in the sub-continent".About President Clinton's visit to India, Pressler was hopeful of a positive outcome.The TV network showed Pressler splashed in colour from head to toe when he spoke on camera during a Holi celebration here.
