humanitarian and religious work were abducted by
one such group and have been held hostage in Colom-
bia since January 31, 1993;
(4) these 3 men have the distinction of being the
longest-held American hostages;
(5) their kidnapers are believed to be members of
the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia
(FARC) narco-guerrilla organization in Colombia;

kidnaping of these men;
(2) appeals to all freedom loving nations to con-
demn these actions;
(3) urges members of the European Community
to assist in the safe return of these men by including
in any dialogue with FARC the objective of the re-
lease of all American hostages;

situation resolved.
