tions with their neighbor Israel;

should continue to vigorously oppose the Arab League 
boycott of Israel and find concrete steps to dem-
onstrate that opposition by, for example, taking into 
consideration the participation of any recipient coun-
try in the boycott when determining to sell weapons 
to said country; and

nually on specific steps being taken by the United 
States to encourage Arab League states to normalize
820 
their relations with Israel to bring about the termi-
nation of the Arab League boycott of Israel, including 
those to encourage allies and trading partners of the

from complying with the boycott and penalizing busi-
nesses that do comply.
