Senators seek to ease sanctions on India & Pakistan. Excerpts: Negotiations are underway among key members of the Senate on a measure that would soften the impact of mandatory economic sanctions that the United States slapped on India and Pakistan after they tested nuclear weapons in May. Sen.Charles Robb (D-Va) "The trick is to find a face-saving way out that makes the sanctions short-term but doesn't make it look like you've caved in" on nuclear proliferation, one staff member said. Sen. Slade Gorton (R-Wash.) said in a radio appearance June 2 that he and Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.) "will do everything we can at an early time in the Senate to end the India and Pakistan embargoes. . . . We will do everything we can to end these absurd sanctions." washingtonpost.com
