Whereas April 26, 2006, marks the 20th anniversary of the 
Chernobyl nuclear disaster; 
Whereas serious radiological, health, and socioeconomic con-
sequences for the populations of Ukraine, Belarus, and 
Russia, as well as for the populations of other affected 
areas, have been identified since the disaster; 
Whereas the Chernobyl Forum, an initiative launched by the 
International Atomic Energy Agency and supported by 
the World Health Organization, the United Nations De-
velopment Program, and other United Nations agencies, 
as well as by the governments of Ukraine, Belarus, and 
Russia, examined the scientific evidence of the human 
health affects and the environmental impact of the 
Chernobyl nuclear disaster; 
Whereas the findings of the Chernobyl Forum, issued in Sep-
tember 2005, significantly added to the understanding of 
the health consequences and economic impact caused by 
the Chernobyl nuclear disaster; 
Whereas the Chernobyl Forum found that approximately 
5,000,000 people live in areas of Ukraine, Belarus, and 
Russia that were contaminated by radioactivity;
•HRES 703 EH 
Whereas the populations of the affected areas who were ex-
posed as children have experienced significant increases 
in thyroid cancer; 
Whereas the lives and health of people in the affected areas 
continue to be heavily burdened by the aftermath of the 
Chernobyl nuclear disaster; 
Whereas numerous charitable, humanitarian, and environ-
mental organizations from the United States and the 
international community are committed to overcoming 
the extensive consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear dis-
aster; 
Whereas the United States has sought to help the people of 
the affected areas through various forms of assistance; 
Whereas humanitarian assistance and public health research 
into the consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster 
will continue to be needed in the coming decades when 
a large number of latent health effects are expected to 
emerge; 
Whereas the United States strongly supports improving nu-
clear safety in Ukraine; 
Whereas, in 1997, the United States, the European Union, 
and Ukraine developed the Shelter Implementation Plan 
for the purpose of protecting people and the environment 
from the dangers of the large quantity of highly radio-
active material contained in the Chernobyl nuclear power 
plant; 
Whereas as the United States is the largest single country 
donor to the Chernobyl Shelter Fund, which was created 
with the purpose of funding the Shelter Implementation 
Plan, having pledged a total of $203,000,000; and
•HRES 703 EH 
Whereas the most critical component of the Shelter Imple-

designed to better protect people and the environment 
from the radioactive remains of the Chernobyl nuclear

Resolved, That the House of Representatives—
(1) recognizes the 20th anniversary of the 
Chernobyl nuclear disaster and expresses sympathy for 
the ongoing effects of the disaster, including adverse 
health consequences and deaths; 
(2) calls upon national and international health or-
ganizations to focus their research into the public health 
consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster into 
areas identified by the Chernobyl Shelter Fund, so that 
the global community can benefit from the findings of 
such research; 
(3) supports continued United States assistance to 
the Chernobyl Shelter Fund, the Shelter Implementation 
Plan, construction of a facility to store spent nuclear 
fuel, and other efforts to mitigate the consequences of 
the Chernobyl nuclear disaster; and

In the House of Representatives, U.S., 
December 18, 2005.
Whereas for three decades there has been a continuous armed 
conflict in Aceh, a province in Sumatra, Indonesia; 
Whereas violence between the Indonesian military and the 
Free Aceh Movement has resulted in an estimated 15,000 
deaths in the region; 
Whereas the tsunami that occurred on December 26, 2004, 
killed at least 165,000 people in Aceh and devastated the 
landscape; 
Whereas after the tsunami both the Government of Indonesia 
and the Free Aceh Movement recognized that a peaceful 
settlement of the conflict would have to be reached to en-
able the rebuilding of Aceh; 
Whereas after months of negotiating through the Crisis Man-
agement Initiative chaired by former President Martti 
Ahtisaari of Finland, the parties agreed to a draft memo-
randum of understanding to end the conflict in July 
2005; 
Whereas Hamid Awaludin, Minister of Law and Human 
Rights of Indonesia, and Malik Mahmud, of the Free 
Aceh Movement, signed the final memorandum of under-
standing on August 15, 2005, in Helsinki;
•HRES 456 EH 
Whereas the memorandum of understanding provides a time-
table for disarmament of the Free Aceh Movement and 
troop withdrawals by the Indonesian military; 
Whereas the memorandum of understanding provides the 
people of Aceh with new political powers and the right to 
retain 70 percent of the revenues from certain natural re-
source extractions from the province; 
Whereas a Truth and Reconciliation Commission and a 
Human Rights Court will be established for Aceh; 
Whereas the Free Aceh Movement has agreed to forego its 
demand for independence; and 
Whereas Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono 
has provided amnesty and released hundreds of Free 
Aceh Movement members being held in prison since the 
signing of the peace agreement: Now, therefore, be it

their willingness to compromise;
