Summary

Declares that: (1) the United States should work with the United Nations (UN) as the primary conduit for a peaceful solution to the crisis in Yugoslavia; and (2) the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) should cease air strikes in Yugoslavia to give the UN the necessary window of opportunity to bring peace to the people of Kosovo. Urges the President to engage the UN as an intermediary in negotiations between NATO and Slobodan Milosevic to: (1) bring an end to the NATO bombing in Yugoslavia; (2) end the intimidation and expulsion of the Kosovo civilian population; (3) cease all activities of the Yugoslav military and paramilitary forces in Kosovo and to withdraw those forces; (4) facilitate the return of refugees and displaced persons to their homes; and (5) deploy an international peacekeeping force to ensure a secure environment for the refugees and humanitarian aid.
