SEC. 8138. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON NEGOTIATION OF LIMI-
TATIONS ON NUCLEAR WEAPONS TESTING.
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following:
(1) On January 25, 1994, the United States
joined with 37 other nations to begin negotiations for
a comprehensive treaty to ban permanently all nu-
clear weapons testing.
(2) On March 14, 1994, the President decided to
extend the current United States nuclear testing mor-
atorium at least through September 1995.
(3) Germany and the Group of 21 Non-Aligned
States have publicly stated their support for the com-
HR 4650 EAS
pletion of a comprehensive nuclear test ban treaty by
1995.
(4) On June 6, 1994, the People’s Republic of
China conducted its second nuclear weapons test ex-
plosion since the United States, Russia, and France
initiated their current nuclear test moratoria.
(5) On September 7, 1994, the third and final
test ban negotiating session of the year will end.
(6) While some progress toward a comprehensive
nuclear test ban treaty has been achieved, there is lit-
tle chance that an agreement will be reached before
April 1995 at the current rate of negotiation.
(7) The United States is seeking to extend indefi-
nitely the Non-Proliferation Treaty at the April 1995
Extension Conference.
(8) Conclusion of a comprehensive nuclear test
ban treaty could contribute toward successful negotia-
tions to extend the Non-Proliferation Treaty.
(9) Agreements to eliminate nuclear testing and
control the spread of nuclear weapons could contrib-
ute to national security of the United States, its al-
lies, and other nations around the world.

(1) applauds the President for maintaining the
United States nuclear testing moratorium and for
HR 4650 EAS
supporting the negotiation of a comprehensive nuclear
test ban treaty;
(2) encourages the People’s Republic of China
and all other nuclear powers to refrain from conduct-
ing nuclear explosions prior to conclusion of a com-
prehensive nuclear test ban treaty; and
(3) urges the President and the other nuclear
powers to take measures necessary to achieve a multi-
lateral comprehensive nuclear test ban treaty before
the Non-Proliferation Treaty Extension Conference.
(c) DEFINITION.—As used in this section, the term
‘‘Non-Proliferation Treaty’’ means the Treaty on the Non-
Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, done at Washington,
London, and Moscow on July 1, 1968 (21 U.S.T. 483).

Sec. 8148. (a) Sense of the Senate concerning Japan
fulfilling its commitments under the Host Nation Support
Agreement it signed with the United States on January 14,
1991:
(b) The Senate finds—
(1) That, the United States-Japan Security
Treaty continues to be a strong bond between our two
countries, serving as a main pillar of the bilateral re-
lationship;
(2) That, the bilateral relationship is of vital im-
portance to both countries and to the stability of the
Asia Pacific region and the entire world;
(3) That, Japan’s willingness to share the costs
of maintaining forces in Japan is an important con-
tribution to strengthening our security partnership;
(4) That, it has often been asserted that Japan’s
host nation support for American forces provides a
HR 4650 EAS
model defense burden-sharing arrangement for our al-
lies;
(5) That, Japan and the United States signed a
new Host Nation Support Agreement on January 14,
1991, providing for Japan to assume—over five years
beginning in Japanese Fiscal Year 1991 and ending
in fiscal year 1995—virtually all yen-based costs of
maintaining United States forces in Japan;
(6) That, Japan voluntarily entered into that
agreement more than a year before the expiration of
the previous Host Nation Support Agreement which
was not as generous;
(7) That, the Government of Japan hailed the
new agreement as ‘‘a step of great significance for the
overall relationship between the two countries’’;
(8) That, Japan’s Defense Agency appears to
have decided to decrease expenses for bearing the cost
of stationing United States forces in Japan in its fis-
cal year 1995 budget request, thereby failing to fulfill
its obligations under the 1991 Host Nation Support
Agreement;
(9) That, should Japan fail to fulfill those obli-
gations, the bilateral relationship may suffer negative
consequences, particularly as current problems on the
HR 4650 EAS
Korean peninsula pose a critical challenge to United
States-Japan security ties: Now, therefore
(c) It is the sense of the Senate that—
(1) It is in the interest of both Japan and the
United States to fully comply with all the provisions
of the Host Nation Support Agreement of 1991; and
(2) Should either nation wish to depart from
fully complying with all the provisions of that agree-
ment, it should engage in close consultations with its
counterpart before taking any action.

(a) PURPOSE.—To express the sense of Congress con-
cerning the international efforts to end the conflict in
Bosnia and Hercegovina, and to establish a process to end
the arms embargo on the Government of Bosnia and
Hercegovina.
HR 4650 EAS
(b) STATEMENT OF SUPPORT.—The Congress supports
the efforts of the so-called ‘‘contact group’’ composed of rep-
resentatives of the United States, Russia, France, Britain,
and Germany to bring about a peaceful settlement of the
conflict in Bosnia and Hercegovina based upon the con-
tact’s group proposal of July 6, 1994 that has been agreed
to by the Government of Bosnia and Hercegovina and re-
jected by the Bosnian Serb faction.
(c) SENSE OF THE CONGRESS.—It is the sense of the
Congress that:
(1) The United States should work with the
NATO Member nations and other permanent Members
of the United Nations Security Council to bring about
a peaceful settlement of the conflict in Bosnia and
Hercegovina which maintains the territorial integrity
of Bosnia and Hercegovina.
(2) A peaceful settlement of the conflict must pre-
serve an economically, politically and militarily via-
ble Bosnian state capable of exercising its rights
under the United Nations Charter as part of a peace-
ful settlement, including the lifting of the arms em-
bargo on the Government of Bosnia and Hercegovina
so that it can exercise the inherent right of a sov-
ereign state to self-defense.
HR 4650 EAS
(3) The acceptance of the contact group’s peace
proposal 
by 
the 
Government 
of 
Bosnia 
and
Hercegovina should lead to the lifting of the inter-
national arms embargo on that Government.
(4) In providing weapons to the Bosnian Gov-
ernment or taking other actions, care should be taken
to provide for the safety of the United Nations Protec-
tion Force (UNPROFOR) and the civilian personnel
working for the United Nations or non-governmental
volunteer organizations.
(5) The United States should immediately seek to
organize an international effort to provide assistance
to the nations bordering Serbia and Montenegro to
bring about more effective enforcement by those na-
tions of the international economic sanctions on the
Government of Serbia and Montenegro.
(d) POLICY.—The United States should exercise leader-
ship within the international community to cause the
Bosnian Serb faction to accept the contact’s group’s pro-
posal. Such action should be taken on separate but com-
plimentary international and unilateral tracks. Accord-
ingly:
(1) International: If the Bosnian Serbs have not
accepted the contact group’s proposal of July 6, 1994
within 10 days after the enactment of this Act or by
HR 4650 EAS
October 15, 1994, whichever is later, the President or
his representative should formally introduce and sup-
port a resolution in the United Nations Security
Council, within fourteen days thereafter, to terminate
the international arms embargo on the Government of
Bosnia and Hercegovina. The termination of the
arms embargo on the Government of Bosnia and
Hercegovina may be accomplished in stages but
should result in a lifting of the arms embargo no later
than December 1, 1994.
(2) Unilateral: If the United Nations Security
Council has not voted to lift the international arms
embargo 
on 
the 
Government 
of 
Bosnia 
and
Hercegovina in accordance with paragraph (1) with-
in 15 days after the President or his representative
has formally introduced such a resolution or by No-
vember 15, 1994, whichever is earlier, and the
Bosnian Serbs have not accepted the contact group’s
proposal of July 6, 1994 by that date:
(A) None of the funds available to the De-
partment of Defense for any fiscal year shall
thereafter be used for the purpose of participa-
tion in, support for, or assistance to the enforce-
ment of the arms embargo on the Government of
Bosnia and Hercegovina but the President may
HR 4650 EAS
waive this provision in the case of United States
military personnel serving in NATO head-
quarters staff positions. Nothing in this provi-
sion is intended to impede sanctions enforcement
against Serbia;
(B) The President shall submit a plan to
and consult with the Congress on the manner in
which the Armed Forces of the United States and
other friendly nations would provide training to
the armed forces of the Government of Bosnia
and Hercegovina outside of the territory of
Bosnia and Hercegovina; and
(C) The President shall submit a plan to
and consult with the Congress regarding unilat-
eral lifting by the United States of the arms em-
bargo on the Government of Bosnia and
Hercegovina.
(3) Interim: If the Bosnian Serb faction attacks
the United Nations declared safe areas, the President
or his representative should promptly introduce and
support a resolution in the United Nations Security
Council that authorizes a selective lifting of the arms
embargo 
on 
the 
Government 
of 
Bosnia 
and
Hercegovina to provide defensive weapons, such as
anti-tank weapons, counter-battery radars, and mor-
HR 4650 EAS

and Hercegovina to defend the safe areas.
