| 2008-08-14 |
| Sen Tom Harkin, Democrat from Iowa, has said it is time for President Pervez Musharraf to step down, for violence, bloodshed and fear to cease and the confidence of the Pakistani people to be restored. In a statement, Harkin said, "In order to re-establish the rule of law, return the High Court judges to their official posts and get back to solving the day-to-day challenges of the Pakistani people, Musharraf should strongly take into consideration the will of the Pakistani people and step-down. There are significant challenges that the leaders of Pakistan must confront in order to ensure the most basic needs for the people of Pakistan, and Musharraf no longer seems to enjoy the confidence of the Pakistani people." |
