Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) it should be U.S. policy to help the former Soviet republics and Baltic states achieve economic and political stability; and (2) the President should prepare and transmit to the Congress a plan to assist the former Soviet republics that includes actions to provide prompt humanitarian assistance, combat the proliferation of nuclear weapons, provide technical assistance to facilitate the emergence of free market economies, and assist the development of democratic, free market societies that protect individual rights.
