    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

Executive Branch of the United States Government shall interfere with 
the transfer of arms to the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
    (b) Termination.--The President shall terminate the United States 
arms embargo of the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina upon receipt 
from that government of a request for assistance in exercising its 
right of self-defense under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter.
    (c) Definition.--As used in this section, the term ``United States 
arms embargo of the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina'' means the 
application to the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina of--
            (1) the policy adopted July 10, 1991, and published in the
