Summary

Amends the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 to prohibit U.S. defense articles from being transferred to, or used on, Cyprus by Turkey.

Requires the President to report periodically to the Congress: (1) specifying the number of Turkish armed forces on Cyprus; and (2) describing any U.S. defense articles on Cyprus.
