Summary
Expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that France, Germany, and Russia should: (1) work with the World Bank, the European Union, and other multilateral organizations to create a debt forgiveness program to assist Iraq in its reconstruction; and (2) recognize the responsibility that they bear for the transfer of military technology to a terrorist regime in Iraq and work to build stronger internal export controls so that such technology will no longer be exported to terrorist regimes, thus creating similar future debts.
