SEC. 584. (a) FINDINGS.—The Congress finds that—
(1) There is a lack of transparency in the reve-

many developing countries that receive United States
assistance.
(2) In such countries, official revenues—particu-
larly from natural resource extraction—are often un-
reported, under-reported, or inaccurately recorded by
foreign government agencies.
(3) Such inefficiencies—which in some instances
mask outright theft—result in the failure of such gov-
ernments to adequately provide their citizens with so-
cial, political, economic, and legal benefits and oppor-
tunities, and undermine the effectiveness of assistance
provided to such countries by the United States and
other international donors.
444

(4) Good governance and respect for the rule of
law are critical to a nation’s development.

forced;
(4) Those countries receiving such assistance
where no such laws or regulations exist, and the ex-
tent to which such revenues and expenditures are pub-
licly disclosed; and
(5) Programs and activities sponsored by the
United States Government to promote accurate disclo-
sure of revenues and expenditures in the national
budgets of such countries, and the results of those pro-
grams and activities.

SEC. 586. SENSE OF THE SENATE WITH RESPECT TO
NORTH KOREA. It is the sense of the Senate that—
(1) North Korea has violated the basic terms of
the Agreed Framework Between the United States of
America and the Democratic People’s Republic of
Korea, signed in Geneva on October 21, 1994 (and the
Confidential Minute to that agreement), and the
North-South Joint Declaration on the Denuclear-
ization of the Korean Peninsula by pursuing the en-
richment of uranium for the purpose of building a
nuclear weapon and by ‘‘nuclearizing’’ the Korean
peninsula;
(2) North Korea has announced its intention to
restart the 5-megawatt reactor and related reprocess-
ing facility at Yongbyon, which were frozen under the
Agreed Framework, and has expelled the Inter-
national Atomic Energy Agency personnel monitoring
the freeze;
(3) North Korea has announced its intention to
withdraw from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of
Nuclear Weapons, done at Washington, London, and
Moscow on July 1, 1968 (21 UST 483);
446
HJ 2 EAS
(4) the Agreed Framework is, as a result of
North Korea’s own actions over several years and re-
cent declaration, null and void;
(5) North Korea’s pursuit and development of
nuclear weapons is of grave concern and represents a
serious threat to the security of the United States, its
regional allies, and friends;
(6) North Korea must immediately come into
compliance with its obligations under the Treaty on
the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and other
commitments to the international community;
(7) any diplomatic solution to the North Korean
crisis must achieve the total dismantlement of North
Korea’s nuclear weapons and nuclear production ca-
pability, 
including 
effective 
and 
comprehensive
verification requirements, on-site monitoring, and free
access for the investigation of all sites of concern;
(8) the United States, in conjunction with the
Republic of Korea and other allies in the Pacific re-
gion, should take measures to ensure the highest pos-
sible level of deterrence and military readiness
against the multiple threats that North Korea poses;
(9) since 1995, the United States has been the
single largest food donor to North Korea, providing
$620,000,000 in food aid assistance over that time;
447
HJ 2 EAS
(10) North Korea does not allow full verification
of the use of food aid assistance, as shown by the fail-
ure of North Korea to permit the World Food Pro-
gram to introduce a system of random access moni-
toring of such use in North Korea and the failure of
North Korea to provide the World Food Program with
a list of institutions through which World Food Pro-
gram food is provided to beneficiaries;
(11) the failures described in paragraph (10) fall
short of humanitarian practice in emergency oper-
ations in other parts of the world; and
(12) North Korea should allow full verification of
the use of food aid assistance by—
(A) providing the World Food Program
with a list of institutions through which World
Food Program food is provided to beneficiaries;
(B) permitting the World Food Program to
introduce a system of random access monitoring
in North Korea; and
(C) providing access for the World Food
Program in all counties in North Korea.
