Resolution concerning the crisis in Cyprus.

Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress of the United States that: (1) the United States deplores and condemns the repeated violations by the armed forces of Turkey of the ceasefire declarations agreed to by the United Nations Security Council and the Three Party Negotiations in Geneva, finds inexcusable the repeated attacks on members of the United Nations Force in Cyprus by Turkish armed forces and deems unjustified the effort by the Government of Turkey to seek to impose its will on Cyprus by the use of force; (2) the United States in concert with other nations should continue to provide its fair share of the emergency refugee relief assistance required to alleviate the needs of all Cypriot refugees, and should support a comprehensive program of economic assistance designed to rehabilitate the crippled economy of Cyprus; (3) in order to restore peace, unity and stability to Cyprus, all foreign armed forces, other than United Nations peacekeeping forces, should be withdrawn promptly from Cyprus; and (4) the Congress supports the efforts of President Ford and Secretary of State Kissinger to restore the sovereignty and constitutional integrity of Cyprus and to establish appropriate safeguards for the preservation of human rights and for the safety of its minority and any additional measures in pursuance of these objectives that may be required by the circumstances.
