Casar Questions U.S. State Department on Pakistan

Pakistan After Elections: Examining the Future of Democracy in Pakistan & US-Pakistan Relationship, U.S. House Committee Hearing held in Washington, D.C. on March 20, 2024.

Congressman Greg Casar questions the witness Donald Lu, Assistant Secretary of State, Bureau for South and Central Asian Affairs, U.S. State Department.

We need to ensure a credible investigation of election interference is conducted in Pakistan. Democracy and the will of the people - not military interests - must be our priority.

Congressman Greg Casar represents Texas's 35th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives, which runs down I-35 from East Austin to Hays County to the West Side of San Antonio.

Pakistanis have the right to elect their leaders without cell phone service shutdowns & other authoritarian practices aimed at undermining election results.

The U.S. must stand with the Pakistani people & make clear we will not support anyone working to undermine democracy.
