SECTION 1. PROHIBITION ON ASSISTANCE FOR TURKEY UNTIL CERTAIN 
              CONDITIONS MET.

        accounted for the 5 Americans who were abducted by the Turkish 
        invasion forces in 1974 and the 1,614 Greek Cypriots who have 
        been missing since the Turkish invasion;
            (2) the churches in the occupied parts of Cyprus that were 
        illegally converted to mosques in violation of the 1949 Geneva 
        Conventions have been restored to their original condition for 
        Christian worship;
            (3) the Government of Turkey has authorized a census of the

        colonists, have been withdrawn from Cyprus;
            (5) the Government of Turkey has returned to the Government 
        of Cyprus under the auspices of the United Nations the formerly 
        Greek Cypriot area of Famagusta/Varosha for the immediate 
        resettlement of displaced persons;
            (6) the negotiations under United Nations auspices have 
        resulted in significant progress towards establishing a 
        constitutional democracy in Cyprus based on majority rule, the 
        rule of law, and the protection of minority rights;
            (7) the Government of Turkey is in compliance with 
        paragraph 4 of Article 2 of the United Nations Charter and with 
        relevant United Nations resolutions on Cyprus, including--
                    (A) General Assembly Resolution 3212 (XXIX) of 1974

        Cooperation in Europe; and
            (9) the Government of Turkey is not engaged in a consistent 
        pattern of gross violations of internationally recognized human 
        rights (within the meaning of sections 116 and 502B of the 
        Foreign Assistance Act of 1961).
    (b) Military and Economic Assistance Defined.--As used in this 
section, the term ``military and economic assistance'' means--
            (1) any assistance under chapter 2 of part II of the 
        Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (relating to military 
        assistance), including any transfer of excess defense articles 
        under sections 516 through 519;
