SECTION 1. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) Ukraine has adopted administrative procedures that 
        accord its citizens the right to emigrate, travel freely, and 
        to return to their country without restriction, and has been 
        found to be in full compliance with the freedom of emigration 
        requirements under title IV of the Trade Act of 1974 since 
        1997;
            (2) since reestablishing independence in 1991, Ukraine has 
        taken important steps toward the establishment of a genuine 
        democracy, and the people of Ukraine deserve praise for 
        demonstrating a deep commitment to democracy through peaceful 
        civil action;
            (3) Ukraine has demonstrated a commitment to adopting the 
        full range of internationally recognized core labor standards 
        and to continue to improve the effective enforcement of its 
        laws reflecting such standards;
            (4) as a participating state of the Organization for 
        Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), Ukraine has 
        committed to developing a system of governance in accordance 
        with the provisions of the Final Act of the Conference on 
        Security and Cooperation in Europe (also known as the 
        ``Helsinki Final Act'') and successive documents regarding 
        human rights and humanitarian affairs, including respect for 
        freedom of the media;
            (5) Ukraine has endeavored to address issues related to its 
        national and religious minorities and, as a member state of the 
        OSCE, has committed to adopting special measures for ensuring 
        that persons belonging to national minorities have full 
        equality both individually and communally;
            (6) Ukraine has enacted legislation providing protection 
        against incitement to violence against persons or groups based 
        on national, racial, ethnic, or religious discrimination, 
        including anti-Semitism, and has committed itself, including 
        through a letter to the President of the United States, to 
        ensuring freedom of religion and combating racial and ethnic 
        intolerance and hatred;
            (7) Ukraine has continued to return communal properties 
        confiscated from national and religious minorities during the 
        Soviet era, facilitating the reemergence of these communities 
        in the national life of Ukraine, and remains committed, through 
        a letter to the President of the United States, to establishing 
        the legal framework for completion of this process in the 
        future;
            (8) Ukraine has taken important steps toward the creation 
        of a free market economic system and has received normal trade 
        relations treatment since concluding a bilateral trade 
        agreement with the United States that entered into force on 
        June 23, 1992; and
            (9) Ukraine is seeking admission to the World Trade 
        Organization, which would be a welcome step, recognizing that 
        many issues remain to be resolved, including protection of 
        intellectual property rights, access for United States 
        agricultural products, tariff and excise tax reductions for 
        goods (including automobiles), access for financial services 
        providers of the United States, elimination of export 
        incentives for industrial goods, and reform of customs 
        procedures and other nontariff barriers.

to respond to import surges from Ukraine, recognizing that these rights

        beginning on the date on which the President first notifies the

        be considered in accordance with this subsection.

        filled with the appropriate date.
            (3) Procedures for considering resolution.--The provisions 
        of subparagraphs (B), (C), and (D)(i) and (ii) of paragraph (5)
