Urging the President of the United States to seek an international oil 
embargo through the United Nations against Libya because of its refusal 
to comply with United Nations Security Council Resolutions 731 and 748 
              concerning the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103.

Whereas -4-4-1 -p-e-o-p-l-e 189 Americans were murdered in the terrorist bombing 
        of Pan Am Flight 103 in 1988 and -t-h-e 7 Americans were murdered in the 
        terrorist bombing of UTA Flight 772 in 1989;
Whereas these bombings killed nationals from over 30 nations;
Whereas the United Nations Security Council first passed Resolution 731 on 
        January 21, 1992, and subsequently adopted Resolution 748 on March 31, 
        1992 in response to the inaction of the Libyan government on this issue;
Whereas Libya has refused to provide all information in its possession regarding 
        the bombings;
Whereas Libya has refused to remand into American, British, or French custody, 
        the -t-w-o suspected Libyan agents;
Whereas Libya has refused to pay compensation to the families of the victims of 
        both flights; and
Whereas Libya has long been a state sponsor of international terrorism, 
        providing financial, logistical, and armed support for a variety of 
        terrorist groups and movements: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that--
            (1) the President should immediately seek an international 
        oil embargo through the United Nations against Libya for its 
        refusal to comply with United Nations Security Council 
        Resolutions 731 and 748 concerning the bombings of Pan Am 
        Flight 103 and UTA 772;
            (2) Libya should comply with all provisions of United 
        Nations Security Council Resolutions 731 and 748;
            (3) Libya should release to the United States or Great 
        Britain for trial, the -t-w-o Libyan agents -s-u-s-p-e-c-t-e-d 
        -f-o-r -c-o-m-p-l-i-c-i-t-y indicted in the bombing of Pan Am 
        Flight 103 and to France those responsible for the bombing of 
        UTA Flight 772;
            (4) Libya should provide all information in its possession 
        regarding the two bombings;
            (5) Libya should pay compensation to the families of the 
        victims of both flights;
            (6) all United States nationals in Libya who, in defiance 
        of United States law, continue to contribute to the economy of 
        Libya, should leave immediately; and
            (7) Libya should cease support, training, and the arming of 
        terrorist groups and movements throughout the world.
