Summary

Expresses the sense of the Senate that: (1) President Delvalle of Panama has the full support of the American people and should receive the support of the U.S. Government in his effort to assert civilian authority and restore democracy to Panama; and (2) the U.S. Government should formally terminate all contacts with General Noriega, should consider imposing economic sanctions if General Noriega continues to defy President Delvalle's order to step down as commander of the Panamanian Defense Forces, and should put together an aid package for Panama in the event that progress toward democracy is achieved.
