22 SEC. 221. SHORT TITLE.

23 This subtitle may be cited as the ‘‘Sudan Peace Act’’.

24 SEC. 222. FINDINGS.

25 Congress makes the following findings:
42

•S 2382 PCS

1 (1) With clear indications that the Government

2 of Sudan intends to intensify its prosecution of the

3 war against areas outside of its control, which has

4 already cost nearly 2,000,000 lives and has displaced

5 more than 4,000,000, a sustained and coordinated

6 international effort to pressure combatants to end

7 hostilities and to address the roots of the conflict of8 fers the best opportunity for a comprehensive solu9 tion to the continuing war in Sudan.

10 (2) A viable, comprehensive, and internationally

11 sponsored peace process, protected from manipula12 tion, presents the best chance for a permanent reso13 lution of the war, protection of human rights, and

14 a self-sustaining Sudan.

15 (3) Continued strengthening of humanitarian

16 relief operations in Sudan is an essential element in

17 the effort to bring an end to the war.

18 (4) Continued leadership by the United States

19 is critical.

20 (5) Regardless of the future political status of

21 the areas of Sudan outside of the control of the Gov22 ernment of Sudan, the absence of credible civil au23 thority and institutions is a major impediment to

24 achieving self-sustenance by the Sudanese people
43

•S 2382 PCS

1 and to meaningful progress toward a viable peace

2 process.

3 (6) Through manipulation of traditional rival4 ries among peoples in areas outside their full con5 trol, the Government of Sudan has effectively used

6 divide and conquer techniques to subjugate their

7 population, and Congress finds that internationally

8 sponsored reconciliation efforts have played a critical

9 role in reducing the tactic’s effectiveness and human

10 suffering.

11 (7) The Government of Sudan is increasingly

12 utilizing and organizing militias, Popular Defense

13 Forces, and other irregular troops for raiding and

14 slaving parties in areas outside of the control of the

15 Government of Sudan in an effort to severely disrupt

16 the ability of those populations to sustain them17 selves. The tactic is in addition to the overt use of

18 bans on air transport relief flights in prosecuting the

19 war through selective starvation and to minimize the

20 Government of Sudan’s accountability internation21 ally.

22 (8) The Government of Sudan has repeatedly

23 stated that it intends to use the expected proceeds

24 from future oil sales to increase the tempo and
44

•S 2382 PCS

1 lethality of the war against the areas outside its con2 trol.

3 (9) Through its power to veto plans for air

4 transport flights under the United Nations relief op5 eration, Operation Lifeline Sudan (OLS), the Gov6 ernment of Sudan has been able to manipulate the

7 receipt of food aid by the Sudanese people from the

8 United States and other donor countries as a dev9 astating weapon of war in the ongoing effort by the

10 Government of Sudan to subdue areas of Sudan out11 side of the Government’s control.

12 (10) The efforts of the United States and other

13 donors in delivering relief and assistance through

14 means outside OLS have played a critical role in ad15 dressing the deficiencies in OLS and offset the Gov16 ernment of Sudan’s manipulation of food donations

17 to advantage in the civil war in Sudan.

18 (11) While the immediate needs of selected

19 areas in Sudan facing starvation have been ad20 dressed in the near term, the population in areas of

21 Sudan outside of the control of the Government of

22 Sudan are still in danger of extreme disruption of

23 their ability to sustain themselves.

24 (12) The Nuba Mountains and many areas in

25 Bahr al Ghazal, Upper Nile, and Blue Nile regions
45

•S 2382 PCS

1 have been excluded completely from relief distribu2 tion by OLS, consequently placing their populations

3 at increased risk of famine.

4 (13) At a cost which can exceed $1,000,000 per

5 day, and with a primary focus on providing only for

6 the immediate food needs of the recipients, the cur7 rent international relief operations are neither sus8 tainable nor desirable in the long term.

9 (14) The ability of populations to defend them10 selves against attack in areas outside the Govern11 ment of Sudan’s control has been severely com12 promised by the disengagement of the front-line

13 sponsor states, fostering the belief within officials of

14 the Government of Sudan that success on the battle15 field can be achieved.

16 (15) The United States should use all means of

17 pressure available to facilitate a comprehensive solu18 tion to the war, including—

19 (A) the multilateralization of sanctions

20 against the Government of Sudan with explicit

21 linkage of those sanctions to peace;

22 (B) the support or creation of viable demo23 cratic civil authority and institutions in areas of

24 Sudan outside government control;
46

•S 2382 PCS

1 (C) continued active support of people-to2 people reconciliation mechanisms and efforts in

3 areas outside of government control;

4 (D) the strengthening of the mechanisms

5 to provide humanitarian relief to those areas;

6 (E) cooperation among the trading part7 ners of the United States and within multilat8 eral institutions toward those ends; and

9 (F) the use of any and all possible unilat10 eral and multilateral economic and diplomatic

11 tools to compel Ethiopia and Eritrea to end

18 and implementable contingency plan to provide, outside

19 United Nations auspices, the greatest possible amount of

20 United States Government and privately donated relief to

21 all affected areas in Sudan, including the Nuba Moun22 tains, Upper Nile, and Blue Nile, in the event the Govern23 ment of Sudan imposes a total, partial, or incremental ban

24 on OLS air transport relief flights.

25 (b) ELEMENT OF PLAN.—The plan developed under

26 subsection (a) shall include coordination of other donors
53

•S 2382 PCS

1 in addition to the United States Government and private

2 institutions.

3 (c) REPORT.—Not later than 2 months after the date

6 such a plan would require in the event of a total ban on

7 air transport relief flights or in the event of a partial or

8 incremental ban on such flights.

9 (d) REPROGRAMMING AUTHORITY.—Notwith10 standing any other provision of law, in carrying out the

11 plan developed under subsection (a), the President may

12 reprogram up to 100 percent of the funds available for

18 (a) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—Congress hereby ex19 presses its support for the President’s ongoing efforts to

20 diversify and increase effectiveness of United States as21 sistance to populations in areas of Sudan outside of the

22 control of the Government of Sudan, especially the long23 term focus shown in the Sudan Transition Assistance for

24 Rehabilitation (STAR) program with its emphasis on pro25 moting future democratic governance, rule of law, building
54

•S 2382 PCS

1 indigenous institutional capacity, promoting and enhanc2 ing self-reliance, and actively supporting people-to-people

3 reconciliation efforts.

4 (b) ALLOCATION OF FUNDS.—Of the amounts made

5 available to carry out chapter 1 of part I of the Foreign

6 Assistance Act of 1961 (22 U.S.C. 2151 et seq:, relating

7 to development assistance) for the period beginning on Oc8 tober 1, 2000, and ending on September 30, 2003,

9 $16,000,000 shall be available for development of a viable

10 civil authority, and civil and commercial institutions, in

11 Sudan, including the provision of technical assistance, and

12 for people-to-people reconciliation efforts.

13 (c) ADDITIONAL AUTHORITIES.—Notwithstanding

14 any other provision of law, the President is granted au15 thority to undertake any appropriate programs using Fed16 eral agencies, contractual arrangements, or direct support

17 of indigenous groups, agencies, or organizations in areas

18 outside of control of the Government of Sudan in an effort

19 to provide emergency relief, promote economic self-suffi20 ciency, build civil authority, provide education, enhance

55

•S 2382 PCS

1 (d) IMPLEMENTATION.—It is the sense of Congress

2 that the President should immediately and to the fullest

3 extent possible utilize the Office of Transition Initiatives

4 at the Agency for International Development in an effort

5 to pursue the type of programs described in subsection

7 (e) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con8 gress that enhancing and supporting education and the

9 development of rule of law are critical elements in the

10 long-term success of United States efforts to promote a

11 viable economic, political, social, and legal basis for devel12 opment in Sudan. Congress recognizes that the gap of 13–

13 16 years without secondary educational opportunities in

14 southern Sudan is an especially important problem to ad15 dress with respect to rebuilding and sustaining leaders and

16 educators for the next generation of Sudanese. Congress

17 recognizes the unusually important role the secondary

18 school in Rumbek has played in producing the current

19 generation of leaders in southern Sudan, and that priority

20 should be given in current and future development or tran21 sition programs undertaken by the United States Govern22 ment to rebuilding and supporting the Rumbek Secondary

23 School.

9 of Sudan are not receiving assistance through OLS due

10 to restrictions by the Government of Sudan.

11 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con12 gress that the President should—

13 (1) conduct comprehensive assessment of the

14 humanitarian needs in the Nuba Mountains, Red

15 Sea Hills, and Blue Nile regions of Sudan;

16 (2) respond appropriately to those needs based

17 on such assessment; and

1 (3) BANK.—The term ‘‘Bank’’ or ‘‘World

6 (5) HIV/AIDS.—The term ‘‘HIV/AIDS’’

8 (A) an individual having HIV but not

9 AIDS; or

10 (B) an individual having HIV and AIDS.

11 SEC. 242. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

12 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find13 ings:

14 (1) According to statistics of the World Bank,

15 more than 90 percent of all adults and children with

16 HIV/AIDS live in the developing world—62 percent

17 in sub-Saharan Africa, 24 percent in Asia, and 6.9

18 percent in Latin America and the Caribbean.

19 (2) According to UNAIDS, nearly 4,500,000

20 children under 15 years of age have been infected

21 with HIV since the AIDS epidemic began. More

22 than 3,000,000 have already died of AIDS. Children

23 are becoming infected at about the rate of 1 child

24 every minute, and the overwhelming majority of
59

•S 2382 PCS

1 these children acquire the infection from their moth2 ers.

3 (3) The gap between rich and poor countries in

4 terms of transmission of HIV from mother to child

5 has been increasing. Moreover, AIDS threatens to

6 reverse years of steady progress of child survival in

7 developing countries. UNAIDS believes that by the

8 year 2010, AIDS may have increased mortality of

9 children under 5 years of age by more than 100 per10 cent in regions most affected by the virus.

11 (4) In Africa, the death toll from AIDS has

12 reached 13,000,000, while 23,000,000 others live

13 with the disease, and more than 10,000,000 children

14 have been infected or orphaned by it.

15 (5) The World Bank, declaring AIDS not just

16 a public health problem but the ‘‘foremost and fast17 est-growing threat to development’’ in Africa, has

18 launched a new strategy for HIV/AIDS in Africa,

19 declaring it a top priority for the World Bank on

20 that continent.

21 (6) AIDS, like all diseases, knows no bound22 aries, and there is no certitude that the scale of the

23 problem in one continent can be contained within

24 that region.
60

•S 2382 PCS

1 (7) Accordingly, United States financial support

2 for medical research, education, and disease contain3 ment as a global strategy has beneficial ramifica4 tions for millions of Americans and their families

5 who are affected by this disease, and the entire pop6 ulation which is potentially susceptible.

7 (8) The discovery of a relatively simple and

8 cheap means of interrupting the transmission of

9 HIV from an infected mother to the unborn child—

10 namely with nevirapine (NVP), which costs US$4 a

11 tablet—has created a great opportunity for an un12 precedented partnership between the United States

13 Government and the governments of Asian, African

14 and Latin American countries to combat mother-to15 child transmission (also known as ‘‘vertical trans16 mission’’) of HIV.

17 (9) According to UNAIDS, this strategy will

18 decrease the proportion of orphans that are HIV-in19 fected and decrease infant and child mortality rates

20 in these developing regions.

21 (10) At current infection and growth rates for

22 HIV/AIDS, the National Intelligence Council esti23 mates that the number of AIDS orphans worldwide

24 will increase dramatically, potentially increasing

25 threefold or more in the next 10 years, contributing
61

•S 2382 PCS

1 to economic decay, social fragmentation, and polit2 ical destabilization in already volatile and strained

3 societies. Children without care or hope are often

4 drawn into prostitution, crime, substance abuse, or

5 child soldiery.

6 (11) Donors must focus on adequate prepara7 tions for the explosion in the number of orphans and

8 the burden they will place on families, communities,

9 economies, and governments. Support structures and

10 incentives for families, communities, and institutions

11 which will provide care for children orphaned by

12 HIV/AIDS, or for the children who are themselves

13 infected by HIV/AIDS, will be essential.

14 (12) A mother-to-child antiretroviral drug strat15 egy can be a force for social change, providing the

16 opportunity and impetus needed to tackle often long17 standing problems of inadequate services and the

18 profound stigma associated with HIV-infection and

19 the AIDS disease. Strengthening the health infra20 structure to improve mother-and-child health,

21 antenatal, delivery and postnatal services, and cou22 ples counseling generates enormous spillover effects

23 toward combating the AIDS epidemic in developing

24 regions.
62

•S 2382 PCS

1 (b) PURPOSES.—The purposes of this subtitle are

2 to—

3 (1) prevent human suffering; and

4 (2) ensure the viability of economic develop5 ment, stability, and national security in the devel6 oping world by advancing research to—

7 (A) understand the causes associated with

8 HIV/AIDS in developing countries; and

9 (B) assist in the development of an AIDS

10 vaccine.

4 ‘‘(a) STATEMENT OF POLICY.—It is in the national

5 interest of the United States to assist in mitigating the

6 burden that will be placed on sub-Saharan African social,

7 economic, and political institutions as these institutions

8 struggle with the consequences of a dramatically increas9 ing AIDS orphan population, many of whom are them10 selves infected by HIV/AIDS. Effectively addressing that

2 Tuberculosis Control

3 SEC. 251. SHORT TITLE.

4 This subtitle may be cited as the ‘‘International Tu5 berculosis Control Act of 2000’’.

6 SEC. 252. FINDINGS.

7 Congress makes the following findings:

8 (1) Since the development of antibiotics in the

9 1950s, tuberculosis has been largely controlled in the

10 United States and the Western World.

11 (2) Due to societal factors, including growing

12 urban decay, inadequate health care systems, per13 sistent poverty, overcrowding, and malnutrition, as

14 well as medical factors, including the HIV/AIDS epi15 demic and the emergence of multi-drug resistant

16 strains of tuberculosis, tuberculosis has again be17 come a leading and growing cause of adult deaths in

18 the developing world.

19 (3) According to the World Health

20 Organization—

21 (A) in 1998, about 1,860,000 people

22 worldwide died of tuberculosis-related illnesses;

23 (B) one-third of the world’s total popu24 lation is infected with tuberculosis; and
74

•S 2382 PCS

1 (C) tuberculosis is the world’s leading kill2 er of women between 15 and 44 years old and

3 is a leading cause of children becoming or4 phans.

5 (4) Because of the ease of transmission of tu6 berculosis, its international persistence and growth

7 pose a direct public health threat to those nations

8 that had previously largely controlled the disease.

9 This is complicated in the United States by the

10 growth of the homeless population, the rate of incar11 ceration, international travel, immigration, and HIV/

12 AIDS.

13 (5) With nearly 40 percent of the tuberculosis

14 cases in the United States attributable to foreign15 born persons, tuberculosis will never be controlled in

16 the United States until it is controlled abroad.

17 (6) The means exist to control tuberculosis

18 through screening, diagnosis, treatment, patient

19 compliance, monitoring, and ongoing review of out20 comes.

21 (7) Efforts to control tuberculosis are com22 plicated by several barriers, including—

23 (A) the labor intensive and lengthy process

24 involved in screening, detecting, and treating

25 the disease;
75

•S 2382 PCS

1 (B) a lack of funding, trained personnel,

2 and medicine in virtually every nation with a

3 high rate of the disease;

4 (C) the unique circumstances in each coun5 try, which requires the development and imple6 mentation of country-specific programs; and

7 (D) the risk of having a bad tuberculosis

8 program, which is worse than having no tuber9 culosis program because it would significantly

10 increase the risk of the development of more

11 widespread drug-resistant strains of the disease.

12 (8) Eliminating the barriers to the international

13 control of tuberculosis through a well-structured,

14 comprehensive, and coordinated worldwide effort

15 would be a significant step in dealing with the in16 creasing public health problem posed by the disease.

23 ‘‘(7)(A) Congress recognizes the growing inter24 national problem of tuberculosis and the impact its contin25 ued existence has on those nations that had previously
76

•S 2382 PCS

1 largely controlled the disease. Congress further recognizes

2 that the means exist to control and treat tuberculosis, and

3 that it is therefore a major objective of the foreign assist4 ance program to control the disease. To this end, Congress

5 expects the agency primarily responsible for administering

6 this part—

7 ‘‘(i) to coordinate with the World Health Orga8 nization, the Centers for Disease Control, the Na9 tional Institutes of Health, and other organizations

10 toward the development and implementation of a

11 comprehensive tuberculosis control program; and

12 ‘‘(ii) to set as a goal the detection of at least

16 established development programs, by December 31,

17 2010.

18 ‘‘(B) There is authorized to be appropriated to the

19 President, $60,000,000 for fiscal year 2001 to be used to

20 carry out this paragraph. Funds appropriated under this

21 subparagraph are authorized to remain available until ex22 pended.’’.

7 SEC. 262. FINDINGS.

8 Congress makes the following findings:

9 (1) Biotechnology in the agricultural sector

10 holds the prospect for substantial benefits to man11 kind in a number of critical areas.

12 (2) Enhanced crop yields resulting from the use

13 of agricultural biotechnology will help in feeding a

14 growing world population, especially in developing

15 countries.

16 (3) Healthier bio-engineered foods will assist in

17 combating diseases specific to the developing world

18 that arise from vitamin and other nutritional defi19 ciencies.

20 (4) Pest and disease resistant crops developed

21 through biotechnology will preserve and improve the

22 environment by reducing the need for herbicides and

23 pesticides.

24 (5) Greater agricultural yields will preserve the

25 environment by minimizing the need for additional
78

•S 2382 PCS

1 farmland to feed and clothe the world’s growing pop2 ulation.

3 (6) Ensuring that these benefits, the underlying

4 scientific information, and the regulatory framework

5 for managing this technology are shared globally is

6 imperative and should be an integral part of United

7 States foreign assistance programs.

19 products approved under the United States regulatory sys20 tem or, in the case of countries which choose to establish

21 a national regulatory system based on science, to encour22 age adoption of domestic approval processes based on ob23 jective scientific principles. The programs and activities

24 shall include the following:
79

•S 2382 PCS

1 (1) TECHNICAL EXCHANGE PROGRAM FOR FOR2 EIGN OFFICIALS.—The President shall carry out a

3 technical exchange program that brings to the

4 United States appropriate foreign officials for the

5 purpose of educating them about the scientific proc6 ess underlying biotechnology and the regulatory ap7 proval system employed in the United States for bio8 technology products, and to seek answers to any

9 questions they or their citizens may have regarding

10 the safety of biotechnology, particularly in agricul11 tural products.

12 (2) TECHNICAL EXCHANGE PROGRAM FOR

13 UNITED STATES BIOTECHNOLOGY EXPERTS.—The

14 President shall carry out a technical exchange pro15 gram that sends United States experts in the field

16 of biotechnology in the agriculture sector to foreign

17 capitals to provide information on the scientific proc18 ess underlying biotechnology, the regulatory approval

19 system employed in the United States to approve ag20 ricultural products produced with biotechnology, and

19 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following:

20 (1) The President of Yugoslavia, Slobodan

21 Milosevic, has consistently engaged in undemocratic

22 methods of governing.

23 (2) Yugoslavia has passed and implemented a

24 law strictly limiting freedom of the press and has
97

•S 2382 PCS

1 acted to intimidate and prevent independent media

2 from operating inside Yugoslavia.

3 (3) Although the Yugoslav and Serbian con4 stitutions provide for the right of citizens to change

5 their government, citizens of Serbia in practice are

6 prevented from exercising that right by the Milosevic

7 regime’s domination of the mass media and manipu8 lation of the electoral process.

9 (4) The Yugoslav government has orchestrated

10 attacks on academics at institutes and universities

11 throughout the country in an effort to prevent the

12 dissemination of opinions that differ from official

13 state propaganda.

14 (5) The Yugoslav government hinders the for15 mation of nonviolent, democratic opposition through

16 restrictions on freedom of assembly and association.

17 (6) The Yugoslav government uses control and

18 intimidation to control the judiciary and manipulates

19 the country’s legal framework to suit the regime’s

20 immediate political interests.

21 (7) The Government of Serbia and the Govern22 ment of Yugoslavia, under the direction of President

23 Milosevic, have obstructed the efforts of the Govern24 ment of Montenegro to pursue democratic and free25 market policies.
98

•S 2382 PCS

1 (8) At great risk, the Government of Monte2 negro has withstood efforts by President Milosevic to

3 interfere with its government and supported the

4 goals of the United States in the conflict in Kosovo.

5 (9) The people of Serbia who do not endorse

6 the undemocratic actions of the Milosevic govern7 ment should not be the target of criticism that is

8 rightly directed at the Milosevic regime.

9 (b) POLICY.—

10 (1) It is the policy of the United States to en11 courage the development of a government in Yugo12 slavia based on democratic principles and the rule of

13 law and that respects internationally recognized

14 human rights.

15 (2) It is the sense of Congress that—

16 (A) the United States should actively sup17 port the democratic opposition in Yugoslavia,

18 including political parties and independent

19 trade unions, to develop a legitimate and viable

20 alternative to the Milosevic regime;

21 (B) all United States Government officials,

22 including individuals from the private sector

23 acting on behalf of the United States Govern24 ment, should meet regularly with representa25 tives of democratic opposition organizations of
99

•S 2382 PCS

1 Yugoslavia and minimize to the extent prac2 ticable any direct contacts with government of3 ficials from Yugoslavia, particularly President

4 Slobodan Milosevic, who perpetuate the non5 democratic regime in Yugoslavia; and

6 (C) the United States should emphasize to

7 all political leaders in Yugoslavia the impor8 tance of respecting internationally recognized

9 human rights for all individuals residing in

10 Yugoslavia.

9 neither the Government of Yugoslavia nor the Gov10 ernment of Serbia provided the resources to assist

13 Provisions

14 SEC. 551. THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL TRIBUNAL FOR

15 THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA.

16 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following:

17 (1) United Nations Security Council Resolution

18 827, which was adopted May 25, 1993, established

19 the International Criminal Tribunal for the former

20 Yugoslavia to prosecute persons responsible for seri21 ous violations of international humanitarian law

22 committed in the territory of the former Yugoslavia

23 since January 1, 1991.

24 (2) United Nations Security Council Resolution

25 827 requires full cooperation by all countries with

26 the Tribunal, including the obligation of countries to
119

•S 2382 PCS

1 comply with requests of the Tribunal for assistance

2 or orders.

3 (3) The Government of Yugoslavia has dis4 regarded its international obligations with regard to

5 the Tribunal, including its obligation to transfer or

6 facilitate the transfer to the Tribunal of any person

7 on the territory of Yugoslavia who has been indicted

8 for war crimes or other crimes against humanity

9 under the jurisdiction of the Tribunal.

10 (4) The Government of Yugoslavia publicly re11 jected the Tribunal’s jurisdiction over events in

12 Kosovo and has impeded the investigation of rep13 resentatives from the Tribunal, including denying

14 those representatives visas for entry into Yugoslavia,

15 in their efforts to gather information about alleged

16 crimes against humanity in Kosovo under the juris17 diction of the Tribunal.

18 (5) The Tribunal has indicted President

19 Slobodan Milosevic for—

20 (A) crimes against humanity, specifically

21 murder, deportations, and persecutions; and

22 (B) violations of the laws and customs of

23 war.

24 (b) POLICY.—It shall be the policy of the United

25 States to support fully and completely the investigation
120

•S 2382 PCS

1 of President Slobodan Milosevic by the International

2 Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia for genocide,

3 crimes against humanity, war crimes, and grave breaches

4 of the Geneva Convention.

5 (c) IN GENERAL.—Subject to subsection (b), it is the

6 sense of Congress that the United States Government

7 should gather all information that the intelligence commu8 nity (as defined in section 3(4) of the National Security

9 Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 401a(4)) collects or has collected

10 to support an investigation of President Slobodan

11 Milosevic for genocide, crimes against humanity, war

12 crimes, and grave breaches of the Geneva Convention by

13 the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugo14 slavia (ICTY) and that the Department of State should

15 provide all appropriate information to the Office of the

16 Prosecutor of the ICTY under procedures established by

17 the Director of Central Intelligence that are necessary to

18 ensure adequate protection of intelligence sources and

19 methods.

20 (d) REPORT TO CONGRESS.—Not less than 180 days

21 after the date of enactment of this Act, and every 180

22 days thereafter for the succeeding 5-year period, the Presi23 dent shall submit a report, in classified form if necessary,

24 to the appropriate congressional committees that describes

25 the information that was provided by the Department of
121

•S 2382 PCS

1 State to the Office of the Prosecutor of the International

2 Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia for the pur3 poses of subsection (c).

4 SEC. 552. SENSE OF CONGRESS WITH RESPECT TO ETHNIC

5 HUNGARIANS OF VOJVODINA.

6 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds that—

7 (1) approximately 350,000 ethnic Hungarians

8 reside in the province of Vojvodina, part of Serbia,

9 in traditional settlements in existence for centuries;

10 (2) this community has taken no side in any of

11 the Balkan conflicts since 1990, but has maintained

12 a consistent position of nonviolence, while seeking to

13 protect its existence through the meager opportuni14 ties afforded under the existing political system;

15 (3) the Serbian leadership deprived Vojvodina

16 of its autonomous status at the same time as it did

17 the same to the province of Kosovo;

18 (4) this population is subject to continuous har19 assment, intimidation, and threatening suggestions

20 that they leave the land of their ancestors; and

21 (5) during the past 10 years this form of ethnic

22 cleansing has already driven 50,000 ethnic Hungar23 ians out of the province of Vojvodina.

24 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con25 gress that the President should—
122

•S 2382 PCS

1 (1) condemn harassment, threats, and intimida2 tion against any ethnic group in Yugoslavia as the

3 usual precursor of violent ethnic cleansing;

4 (2) express deep concern over the reports on re5 cent threats, intimidation, and even violent incidents

6 against the ethnic Hungarian inhabitants of the

7 province of Vojvodina;

8 (3) call on the Secretary of State to regularly

9 monitor the situation of the Hungarian ethnic group

10 in Vojvodina; and

11 (4) call on the NATO allies of the United

12 States, during any negotiation on the future status

13 of Kosovo, also to pay substantial attention to estab14 lishing satisfactory guarantees for the rights of the

15 ethnic Hungarian community of Vojvodina, and of

16 other ethnic minorities in the province, including

17 consulting with elected leaders about their proposal

18 for self-administration.

19 SEC. 553. OWNERSHIP AND USE OF DIPLOMATIC AND CON20 SULAR PROPERTIES.

21 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following:

22 (1) The international judicial system, as cur23 rently structured, lacks fully effective remedies for

24 the wrongful confiscation of property and for unjust

25 enrichment from the use of wrongfully confiscated
123

•S 2382 PCS

1 property by governments and private entities at the

2 expense of the rightful owners of the property.

3 (2) Since the dissolution of the Socialist Fed4 eral Republic of Yugoslavia until March and June

5 1999, when the United States Government took cus6 tody, the Government of Yugoslavia exclusively used,

7 and benefited from the use of, properties located in

8 the United States that were owned by the Socialist

9 Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

10 (3) Until the United States Government took

11 custody, the Governments of Bosnia and

12 Herzegovina, Croatia, the Former Yugoslav Republic

13 of Macedonia, and Slovenia were blocked by the Gov14 ernment of Yugoslavia from using, or benefiting

15 from the use of, any property located in the United

16 States that was previously owned by the Socialist

17 Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

18 (4) The occupation and use by officials of

19 Yugoslavia of that property without prompt, ade20 quate, and effective compensation under the applica21 ble principles of international law to the Govern22 ments of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, the

23 Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, and Slo24 venia is unjust and unreasonable.
124

•S 2382 PCS

1 (b) POLICY ON NEGOTIATIONS REGARDING PROP2 ERTIES.—It is the policy of the United States to insist

3 that the Government of Yugoslavia has a responsibility to,

4 and should, actively and cooperatively engage in good faith

5 negotiations with the Governments of Bosnia and

6 Herzegovina, Croatia, the Former Yugoslav Republic of

7 Macedonia, and Slovenia for resolution of the outstanding

8 property issues resulting from the dissolution of the So9 cialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, including the dis10 position of the following properties located in the United

11 States:

12 (1) 2222 Decatur Street, NW, Washington,

13 DC.

14 (2) 2410 California Street, NW, Washington,

15 DC.

16 (3) 1907 Quincy Street, NW, Washington, DC.

17 (4) 3600 Edmonds Street, NW, Washington,

18 DC.

19 (5) 2221 R Street, NW, Washington, DC.

20 (6) 854 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY.

21 (7) 730 Park Avenue, New York, NY.

22 (c) SENSE OF CONGRESS ON RETURN OF PROP23 ERTIES.—It is the sense of Congress that, if the Govern24 ment of Yugoslavia refuses to engage in good faith nego25 tiations on the status of the properties listed in subsection
125

•S 2382 PCS

1 (b), the President should take steps to ensure that the

2 interests of the Governments of Bosnia and Herzegovina,

3 Croatia, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, and

4 Slovenia are protected in accordance with international

5 law.

6 SEC. 554. TRANSITION ASSISTANCE.

7 (a) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con8 gress that once the regime of President Slobodan Milosevic

9 has been replaced by a government that is committed to

10 democratic principles and the rule of law, and that re11 spects internationally recognized human rights, the Presi12 dent of the United States should support the transition

13 to democracy in Yugoslavia by providing immediate and

14 substantial assistance, including facilitating its integration

15 into international organizations.

16 (b) AUTHORIZATION OF ASSISTANCE.—The Presi17 dent is authorized to furnish assistance to Yugoslavia if

18 he determines, and so certifies to the appropriate congres19 sional committees that the Government of Yugoslavia is

20 committed to democratic principles and the rule of law and

21 respects internationally recognized human rights.

22 (c) REPORT TO CONGRESS.—

23 (1) DEVELOPMENT OF PLAN.—The President

24 shall develop a plan for providing assistance to

25 Yugoslavia in accordance with this section. Such as-
126

•S 2382 PCS

1 sistance would be provided at such time as the

2 President determines that the Government of Yugo3 slavia is committed to democratic principles and the

4 rule of law and respects internationally recognized

5 human rights.

6 (2) STRATEGY.—The plan developed under

7 paragraph (1) shall include a strategy for distrib8 uting assistance to Yugoslavia under the plan.

9 (3) DIPLOMATIC EFFORTS.—The President

10 shall take the necessary steps—

11 (A) to seek to obtain the agreement of

12 other countries and international financial insti13 tutions and other multilateral organizations to

14 provide assistance to Yugoslavia after the Presi15 dent determines that the Government of Yugo16 slavia is committed to democratic principles, the

17 rule of law, and that respects internationally

18 recognized human rights; and

19 (B) to work with such countries, institu20 tions, and organizations to coordinate all such

21 assistance programs.

22 (4) COMMUNICATION OF PLAN.—The President

23 shall take the necessary steps to communicate to the

24 people of Yugoslavia the plan for assistance devel25 oped under this section.
127

•S 2382 PCS

1 (5) REPORT.—Not later than 120 days after

2 the date of enactment of this Act, the President

3 shall transmit to the appropriate congressional com4 mittees a report describing in detail the plan re5 quired to be developed by paragraph (1).

6 TITLE VI—MICROENTERPRISE

7 ASSISTANCE

8 SEC. 601. SHORT TITLE.

9 This title may be cited as the ‘‘Microenterprise for

10 Self-Reliance Act of 2000’’.

11 SEC. 602. FINDINGS AND DECLARATIONS OF POLICY.

12 Congress makes the following findings and declara13 tions:

14 (1) According to the World Bank, more than

15 1,200,000,000 people in the developing world, or

16 one-fifth of the world’s population, subsist on less

17 than $1 a day.

18 (2) Over 32,000 of their children die each day

19 from largely preventable malnutrition and disease.

20 (3)(A) Women in poverty generally have larger

21 work loads and less access to educational and eco22 nomic opportunities than their male counterparts.

23 (B) Directly aiding the poorest of the poor, es24 pecially women, in the developing world has a posi25 tive effect not only on family incomes, but also on
128

•S 2382 PCS

1 child nutrition, health and education, as women in

2 particular reinvest income in their families.

3 (4)(A) The poor in the developing world, par4 ticularly women, generally lack stable employment

5 and social safety nets.

6 (B) Many turn to self-employment to generate

7 a substantial portion of their livelihood. In Africa,

8 over 80 percent of employment is generated in the

9 informal sector of the self-employed poor.

10 (C) These poor entrepreneurs are often trapped

11 in poverty because they cannot obtain credit at rea12 sonable rates to build their asset base or expand

13 their otherwise viable self-employment activities.

14 (D) Many of the poor are forced to pay interest

15 rates as high as 10 percent per day to money lend16 ers.

17 (5)(A) The poor are able to expand their in18 comes and their businesses dramatically when they

19 can access loans at reasonable interest rates.

20 (B) Through the development of self-sustaining

21 microfinance programs, poor people themselves can

22 lead the fight against hunger and poverty.

23 (6)(A) On February 2–4, 1997, a global Micro24 credit Summit was held in Washington, District of

25 Columbia, to launch a plan to expand access to cred-
129

•S 2382 PCS

1 it for self-employment and other financial and busi2 ness services to 100,000,000 of the world’s poorest

3 families, especially the women of those families, by

4 2005. While this scale of outreach may not be

5 achievable in this short time-period, the realization

6 of this goal could dramatically alter the face of glob7 al poverty.

8 (B) With an average family size of five, achiev9 ing this goal will mean that the benefits of micro10 finance will thereby reach nearly half of the world’s

11 more than 1,000,000,000 absolute poor people.

12 (7)(A) Nongovernmental organizations, such as

13 those that comprise the Microenterprise Coalition

14 (such as the Grameen Bank (Bangladesh,) K–REP

15 (Kenya), and networks such as Accion International,

16 the Foundation for International Community Assist17 ance (FINCA), and the credit union movement) are

18 successful in lending directly to the very poor.

19 (B) Microfinance institutions such as BRAC

20 (Bangladesh), BancoSol (Bolivia), SEWA Bank

21 (India), and ACEP (Senegal) are regulated financial

22 institutions that can raise funds directly from the

23 local and international capital markets.
130

•S 2382 PCS

1 (8)(A) Microenterprise institutions not only re2 duce poverty, but also reduce the dependency on for3 eign assistance.

4 (B) Interest income on the credit portfolio is

5 used to pay recurring institutional costs, assuring

6 the long-term sustainability of development assist7 ance.

8 (9) Microfinance institutions leverage foreign

9 assistance resources because loans are recycled, gen10 erating new benefits to program participants.

11 (10)(A) The development of sustainable micro12 finance institutions that provide credit and training,

13 and mobilize domestic savings, is a critical compo14 nent to a global strategy of poverty reduction and

15 broad-based economic development.

16 (B) In the efforts of the United States to lead

17 the development of a new global financial architec18 ture, microenterprise should play a vital role. The

19 recent shocks to international financial markets

20 demonstrate how the financial sector can shape the

21 destiny of nations. Microfinance can serve as a pow22 erful tool for building a more inclusive financial sec23 tor which serves the broad majority of the world’s

24 population including the very poor and women and

25 thus generate more social stability and prosperity.
131

•S 2382 PCS

1 (C) Over the last two decades, the United

2 States has been a global leader in promoting the

3 global microenterprise sector, primarily through its

4 development assistance programs at the United

5 States Agency for International Development. Addi6 tionally, the United States Department of the Treas7 ury and the Department of State have used their au8 thority to promote microenterprise in the develop9 ment programs of international financial institutions

10 and the United Nations.

11 (11)(A) In 1994, the United States Agency for

12 International Development launched the ‘‘Micro13 enterprise Initiative’’ in partnership with the Con14 gress.

15 (B) The initiative committed to expanding

16 funding for the microenterprise programs of the

17 Agency, and set a goal that, by the end of fiscal year

18 1996, one-half of all microenterprise resources would

19 support programs and institutions that provide cred20 it to the poorest, with loans under $300.

21 (C) In order to achieve the goal of the micro22 credit summit, increased investment in microfinance

23 institutions serving the poorest will be critical.

24 (12) Providing the United States share of the

25 global investment needed to achieve the goal of the
132

•S 2382 PCS

1 microcredit summit will require only a small increase

2 in United States funding for international micro3 credit programs, with an increased focus on institu4 tions serving the poorest.

5 (13)(A) In order to reach tens of millions of the

6 poorest with microcredit, it is crucial to expand and

7 replicate successful microfinance institutions.

8 (B) These institutions need assistance in devel9 oping their institutional capacity to expand their

10 services and tap commercial sources of capital.

11 (14) Nongovernmental organizations have dem12 onstrated competence in developing networks of local

13 microfinance institutions and other assistance deliv14 ery mechanisms so that they reach large numbers of

15 the very poor, and achieve financial sustainability.

16 (15) Recognizing that the United States Agency

17 for International Development has developed very ef18 fective partnerships with nongovernmental organiza19 tions, and that the Agency will have fewer missions

20 overseas to carry out its work, the Agency should

21 place priority on investing in those nongovernmental

22 network institutions that meet performance criteria

23 through the central funding mechanisms of the

24 Agency.
133

•S 2382 PCS

1 (16) By expanding and replicating successful

2 microfinance institutions, it should be possible to

3 create a global infrastructure to provide financial

4 services to the world’s poorest families.

5 (17)(A) The United States can provide leader6 ship to other bilateral and multilateral development

7 agencies as such agencies expand their support to

8 the microenterprise sector.

9 (B) The United States should seek to improve

10 coordination among G–7 countries in the support of

11 the microenterprise sector in order to leverage the

12 investment of the United States with that of other

13 donor nations.

14 (18) Through increased support for microenter15 prise, especially credit for the poorest, the United

16 States can continue to play a leadership role in the

17 global effort to expand financial services and oppor18 tunity to 100,000,000 of the poorest families on the

19 planet.

20 SEC. 603. PURPOSES.

21 The purposes of this title are—

24 policy and assistance;
134

•S 2382 PCS
