In an interview on CNN's Situation Room, Wulf Blitzer asked Clinton, "Do you trust the Pakistani government to conduct a fair investigation?" Clinton answered, " I don't think the Pakstani government under President Musharaf has any credibility anymore.... The elites in Pakistan act as though they can destabilize Pakistan and retain their privilege their positions of privilege and authority." This was unacceptable. The position that she stated was that the present Pakistani government was illegitimate and that she was committed to supporting the Pakistanis to move to democracy.
