A top American lawmaker today called for more vetting of people coming in the US from Pakistan, blaming the country of having large terrorist presence. <br/><br/>In an interview to CNN, Congressman Peter King said in Washington that if a person is coming from a country which has a strong terrorist presence, there should be more intense vetting and investigation than there would be from someone not coming from a country similar to that. <br/><br/>He said there should be more vetting of people coming from Pakistan, as it has a large terrorist presence and they have sent 800 people to Syria to fight alongside ISIS. <br/><br/>President Donald Trump on Wednesday said, he will terminate the popular green card lottery after an ISIS-inspired Uzbek man who entered the US under the programme killed eight people in New York.<br/><br/>
