                               RESOLUTION


 
 Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives relating to the 
deployment of United States Armed Forces on the ground in the territory 
of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina to enforce a peace agreement.

    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives 
that--
            (1) in the negotiation of any peace agreement between the 
        parties to the conflict in the Republic of Bosnia and 
        Herzegovina, there should not be a presumption, and it should 
        not be considered to be a prerequisite to the successful 
        conclusion of such a negotiation, that enforcement of such an 
        agreement will involve deployment of United States Armed Forces 
        on the ground in the territory of the Republic of Bosnia and 
        Herzegovina; and
            (2) no United States Armed Forces should be deployed on the 
        ground in the territory of the Republic of Bosnia and 
        Herzegovina to enforce a peace agreement until the Congress has 
        approved such a deployment.
