Summary
Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the Department of State, in its formal human rights dialogue with Vietnam, should place a high priority on seeking the release of all nonviolent political prisoners and reforms to bring Vietnam's legal procedures and practices into conformity with international human rights standards; (2) the Secretary of State should submit a progress report on such dialogue to the Congress within six months; and (3) the United States should actively support resolutions at the United Nations Commission on Human Rights expressing concern about the imprisonment of nonviolent political and religious dissidents in Vietnam, urge the Government of Vietnam to invite international humanitarian organizations to provide their confidential humanitarian services to prisoners in Vietnam, and consult with its allies to coordinate international public and private appeals for improvement in human rights in Vietnam.
