Summary

Calls on the President to: (1) decry the violence in Yugoslavia and affirm U.S. policy for a peaceful resolution through democratic negotiations and adherence to a ceasefire; (2) assert that no border changes that have occurred through force and without benefit of negotiation, and no groups occupying territory obtained through violent means, shall be recognized; (3) affirm his commitment to maintaining the international embargo on arms to all combatants in the conflict; (4) instruct the U.S. representatives of each international financial institution to support U.S. goals in completing and maintaining a ceasefire; (5) request the United Nations (UN) Secretary General to assist the European Community (EC)-sponsored negotiations (or initiate negotiations should the EC negotiations fail), to dispatch a contingent to monitor and enforce any ceasefire, and to assist in the completion of a long-term settlement to the conflict; (6) raise in the UN General Assembly the assessment of multilateral economic sanctions against any party disrupting the ceasefire or refusing to take part in negotiations; and (7) insist that all parties to the conflict approve the presence of a peacekeeping force in Yugoslavia to monitor a negotiated ceasefire.
