       (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
       (1) The Government of Peru has made substantial progress in 
     the effort to restrict the flow of illicit drugs from Peru to 
     the United States.

     the United States and to jail such drug exporters.
       (3) Any individual engaging in such exporting of illicit 
     drugs and convicted in a court of law should face stiff 
     penalties.
       (4) Any such individual should also have a right to timely 
     legal procedures.
       (5) Two United States citizens, Jennifer Davis and Krista

     Peru on September 25, 1996, for attempting to transport

       (6) Ms. Davis and Ms. Barnes have admitted their guilt upon 
     arrest and to an investigative judge.
       (7) Ms. Davis and Ms. Barnes have volunteered to cooperate

       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
     the Government of Peru should respect the rights of prisoners 
     to timely legal procedures, including the rights of all 
     United States citizens held in prisons in Peru.

     on Foreign Relations of the Senate that the country fails to 
     meet the criteria under section 203(d)(3) of the NATO

                 DURBIN (AND OTHERS) AMENDMENT NO. 379

  Mr. DURBIN (for himself, Mr. Gorton, and Mr. D'Amato) proposed an 
amendment to the bill, S. 903, supra; as follows:

     SEC.   . ADMISSION OF ESTONIA, LATVIA, AND LITHUANIA INTO 
                   NATO.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) The Baltic countries of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania 
     are undergoing a historic process of democratic and free 
     market transformation after emerging from decades of brutal 
     Soviet occupation.
       (2) Each of the Baltic countries has conducted peaceful 
     transfers of political power since 1991.
       (3) The governments of the Baltic countries have been 
     exemplary in their respect for human rights and civil 
     liberties and have made great strides toward establishing the 
     rule of law.
       (4) The governments of the Baltic countries have made 
     consistent progress toward establishing civilian control of 
     their military forces, and through active participation in 
     the Partnership for Peace and the peace support operations of 
     the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (in this resolution 
     referred to as ``NATO''), have clearly demonstrated their 
     ability and willingness to operate with the forces of NATO 
     nations and under NATO standards.
       (5) Each of the Baltic countries has made progress toward 
     implementing a free market system which has and will continue 
     to foster the economic advancement of the people of the 
     Baltic region.
       (6) The Baltic region has often been a battleground for the 
     competing territorial designs of nearby imperial powers 
     which, along with other factors, has contributed to a history 
     of insecurity and instability in the region.
       (7) NATO has been a force for stability, freedom, and peace 
     in Europe since 1949.
       (8) NATO has indicated it will begin to invite new members 
     in 1997.
       (9) Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, exercising their 
     inherent right as participating states in the Organization 
     for Security and Cooperation in Europe, have voluntarily 
     applied for membership in NATO.
       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania are to be commended for 
     their progress toward political and economic liberty and 
     meeting the guidelines for prospective NATO members set out 
     in chapter 5 of the September 1995 Study on NATO Enlargement;
       (2) Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania would make an 
     outstanding contribution to NATO if they become members;
       (3) eventual extension of full NATO membership to Estonia, 
     Latvia, and Lithuania would make a singular and lasting 
     contribution toward stability, freedom, and peace in the 
     Baltic region;
       (4) upon satisfying the criteria for NATO membership, 
     Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania should be invited to become 
     full members of NATO at the earliest possible date; and
       (5) Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania should be invited to 
     attend the NATO summit in Madrid on July 8 and 9, 1997.

                 Dewine (and others) Amendment No. 383

  Mr. DeWine (for himself, Mr. Graham, Mr. Faircloth, Mr. Coverdell, 
and Mr. Helms) proposed an amendment to the bill. S. 903, supra; as 
follows:

       At the end of title XVI of division B of the bill, insert 
     the following new section:

     SEC.  . EXCLUSION FROM THE UNITED STATES OF ALIENS WHO HAVE 
                   BEEN INVOLVED IN EXTRAJUDICIAL AND POLITICAL 
                   KILLINGS IN HAITI.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) At the time of the enactment of this Act, there have 
     been over eighty extrajudicial and political killing cases 
     assigned to the Haitian Special Investigative Unit (SIU) by 
     the Government of Haiti. Furthermore, the government has 
     requested that the SIU investigate on a ``priority basis'' 
     close to two dozen cases relating to extrajudicial and 
     political killings.
       (2) President Jean-Bertrand Aristide lived in exile in the 
     United States after he was overthrown by a military coup on 
     September 30, 1991. During his exile, political and 
     extrajudicial killings occurred in Haiti including Aristide 
     financial supporter Antoine Izmery, who was killed on 
     September 11, 1993; Guy Malary, Aristide's Minister of 
     Justice, who was killed on October 14, 1993; and Father Jean-
     Marie Vincent, a supporter of Aristide, was killed on August 
     28, 1992.

[[Page S5705]]

       (3) President Aristide returned to Haiti on October 15, 
     1994, after some 20,000 United States troops, under the code 
     name Operation Uphold Democracy, entered Haiti as the lead 
     force in a multi-national force with the objective of 
     restoring democratic rule.
       (4) From June 25, 1995, through October 1995, elections 
     were held where pro-Aristide candidates won a large share of 
     the parliamentary and local government seats.
       (5) On March 28, 1995, a leading opposition leader to 
     Aristide, Attorney Mireille Durocher Bertin, and a client, 
     Eugene Baillergeau, were gunned down in Ms. Bertin's car.
       (6) On May 22, 1995, Michel Gonzalez, Haitian businessman 
     and Aristide's next door neighbor, was killed in a drive-by 
     shooting after alleged attempts by Aristide to acquire his 
     property.
       (7) After Aristide regained power, three former top Army 
     officers were assassinated: Colonel Max Mayard on March 10, 
     1995; Colonel Michelange Hermann on May 24, 1995; and 
     Brigadier General Romulus Dumarsais was killed on June 27, 
     1995.
       (8) Presidential elections were held on December 17, 1995. 
     Rene Preval, an Aristide supporter, won, with 89 percent of 
     the votes cast, but with a low voter turnout of only 28 
     percent, and with many parties allegedly boycotting the 
     election. Preval took office on February 7, 1996.
       (9) On March 6,1996, police and ministerial security guards 
     killed at least six men during a raid in Cite Soleil, a Port-
     au-Prince slum.
       (10) On August 20,1996, two opposition politicians, Jacques 
     Fleurival and Baptist Pastor Antoine Leroy were gunned down 
     outside Fleurival's home.
       (11) Other alleged extrajudicial and political killings 
     include the deaths of Claude Yves Marie, Mario Beaubrun, 
     Leslie Grimar, Joseph Chilove, and Jean-Hubert Feuille.
       (12) Although the Haitian Government claims to have 
     terminated from employment several suspects in the killings, 
     some whom have received training from United States advisors, 
     there has been no substantial progress made in the 
     investigation that has led to the prosecution of any of the 
     above-referenced extrajudicial and political killings.
       (13) The expiration of the mandate of the United Nations 
     Support Mission in Haiti has been extended three times, the 
     last to July 31, 1997. The Administration has indicated that 
     a fourth extension through November 1997, may be necessary to 
     ensure the transition to a democratic government.
       (b) Grounds for Exclusion.--The Secretary of State shall 
     deny a visa to, and the Attorney General shall exclude from 
     the United States, any alien who the Secretary of State has 
     reason to believe is a person who--
       (1) has been credibly alleged to have ordered, carried out, 
     or materially assisted in, the extrajudicial and political 
     killings of Antoine Izmery, Guy Malary, Father Jean-Marie 
     Vincent, Pastor Antoine Leroy, Jacques Fleurival, Mireille 
     Durocher Bertin, Eugene Baillergeau, Michelange Hermann, Max 
     Mayard, Romulus Dumarsais, Claude Yves Marie, Mario Beaubrun, 
     Leslie Grimar, Joseph Chilove, Michel Gonzalez, and Jean-
     Hubert Feuille;
       (2) has been included in the list presented to former 
     president Jean-Bertrand Aristide by former National Security 
     Council Advisor Anthony Lake in December 1995, and acted upon 
     by President Rene Preval;
       (3) was a member of the Haitian presidential security unit 
     who has been credibly alleged to have ordered, carried out, 
     or materially assisted in, the extrajudicial and political 
     killings of Pastor Antoine Leroy and Jacques Fleurival, or 
     who was suspended by President Preval for his involvement in 
     or knowledge of the Leroy and Fleurival killings on August 
     20, 1996; or
       (4) was sought for an interview by the Federal Bureau of 
     Investigation as part of its inquiry into the March 28, 1995, 
     murder of Mireille Durocher Bertin and Eugene Baillergeau, 
     Jr., and were credibly alleged to have ordered, carried out, 
     or materially assisted, in those murders, per a June 28, 
     1995, letter to the then Minister of Justice of the 
     Government of Haiti, Jean-Joseph Exume.
       (c) Exemption.--This section shall not apply where the 
     Secretary of State finds, on a case by case basis, that the 
     entry into the United States of the person who would 
     otherwise be excluded under this section is necessary for 
     medical reasons, or such person has cooperated fully with the 
     investigation of these political murders. If the Secretary of 
     State exempts such a person, the Secretary shall notify the 
     appropriate congressional committees in writing.
       (d) Reporting Requirement.--(1) The United States chief of 
     mission in Haiti shall provide the Secretary of State a list 
     of those who have been credibly alleged to have ordered or 
     carried out the extrajudicial and political killings 
     mentioned in paragraph (1) of subsection (b).
       (2) The Secretary of State shall submit the list provided 
     under paragraph (1) to the appropriate congressional 
     committees not later than three months after the date of 
     enactment of this Act.
       (3) The Secretary of State shall submit to the appropriate 
     congressional committees a list of aliens denied visas, and 
     the Attorney General shall submit to the appropriate 
     congressional committees a list of aliens refused entry to 
     the United States as a result of this provision.
       (4) The Secretary shall submit a report under this 
     subsection not later than six months after the date of 
     enactment of this Act and not later than March 1 of each year 
     thereafter as long as the Government of Haiti has not 
     completed the investigation of the extrajudicial and 
     political killings and has not prosecuted those implicated 
     for the killings specified in paragraph (1) of subsection 
     (b).
       (e) Definition.--In this section, the term ``appropriate 
     congressional committees'' means the Committee on 
     International Relations of the House of Representatives and 
     the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate.

     Act of 1994 and shall be deemed to have been so designated 
     pursuant to section 203(d)(1) of such Act, except that any 
     such country shall not be so designated if, prior to such 
     effective date, the President certifies to the Committee on

     SEC.   . SENSE OF SENATE REGARDING UNITED STATES CITIZENS 
                   HELD IN PRISONS IN PERU.

       It is the Sense of the Senate that--
       (1) as a signatory of the International Covenant on Civil 
     and Political Rights, the Government of Peru is obligated to 
     grant prisoners timely legal proceedings pursuant to Article 
     9 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights 
     which requires that ``anyone arrested or detained on a 
     criminal charge shall be brought promptly before a judge or 
     other officer authorized by law to exercise judicial power 
     and shall be entitled to trial within a reasonable time or to 
     release;'' and that ``anyone who is deprived of his liberty 
     by arrest or detention shall be entitled to take proceedings 
     before a court, in order that that court may decide without 
     delay on the lawfulness of his detention and order his 
     release if the detention is not lawful;'' and
       (2) the Government of Peru should take all necessary steps 
     to ensure that any U.S. citizen charged with committing a 
     crime in that country is accorded open and fair proceedings 
     in a civilian court.

     SEC.   . SENSE OF THE SENATE ON UNITED STATES POLICY TOWARD 
                   THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:

[[Page S5706]]

       (1) As the world's leading democracy, the United States 
     cannot ignore the Government of the People's Republic of 
     China's record on human rights and religious persecution.
       (2) According to Amnesty International, ``A fifth of the 
     world's people are ruled by a government that treats 
     fundamental human rights with contempt. Human rights 
     violations continue on a massive scale.''.
       (3) According to Human Rights Watch/Asia reported that: 
     ``Unofficial Christian and Catholic communities were targeted 
     by the government during 1996. A renewed campaign aimed at 
     forcing all churches to register or face dissolution, 
     resulted in beating and harassment of congregants, closure of 
     churches, and numerous arrests, fines, and sentences. In 
     Shanghai, for example, more than 300 house churches or 
     meeting points were closed down by the security authorities 
     in April alone.''.
       (4) The People's Republic of China's compulsory family 
     planning policies include forced abortions.
       (5) China's attempts to intimidate Taiwan and the 
     activities of its military, the People's Liberation Army, 
     both in the United States and abroad, are of major concern.
       (6) The Chinese government has threatened international 
     stability through its weapons sales to regimes, including 
     Iran and Iraq, that sponsor terrorism and pose a direct 
     threat to American military personnel and interests.
       (7) The efforts of two Chinese companies, the China North 
     Industries Group (NORINCO) and the China Poly Group (POLY), 
     deserve special rebuke for their involvement in the sale of 
     AK-47 machine guns to California street gangs.
       (8) Allegations of the Chinese government's involvement in 
     our political system may involve both civil and criminal 
     violations of our laws.
       (9) The Senate is concerned that China may violate the 1984 
     Sino-British Joint Declaration transferring Hong Kong from 
     British to Chinese rule by limiting political and economic 
     freedom in Hong Kong.
       (10) The Senate strongly believes time has come to take 
     steps that would signal to Chinese leaders that religious 
     persecution, human rights abuses, forced abortions, military 
     threats and weapons proliferation, and attempts to influence 
     American elections are unacceptable to the American people.
       (11) The United States should signal its disapproval of 
     Chinese government actions through targeted sanctions, while 
     at the same time encouraging worthwhile economic and cultural 
     exchanges that can lead to positive change in China.
       (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate 
     that the United States should--
       (1) limit the granting of United States visas to Chinese 
     government offices who work in entities the implementation of 
     China's laws and directives on religious practices and 
     coercive family planning, and those official materially 
     involved in the massacre of Chinese students in Tiananmen 
     square;
       (2) limit United States taxpayer subsidies for the Chinese 
     government through multilateral development institutions such 
     as the World Bank, Asian Development Bank, and the 
     International Monetary Fund;
       (3) reduce United States financial assistance to 
     international bodies and organizations that provide family 
     planning assistance to the Chinese government;
       (4) publish a list of all companies owned in part or wholly 
     by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) of the Chinese 
     government who export to, or have an office in, the United 
     States;
       (5) impose targeted sanctions on NORINCO and POLY by not 
     allowing them to export to, nor to maintain a physical 
     presence in, the United States for a period one year; and
       (6) promote democratic values in China by increasing United 
     States Government funding of Radio Free Asia, the National 
     Endowment for Democracy's programs in China and existing 
     students, cultural, and legislative exchange programs between 
     the United States and the People's Republic of China.
                                                                    ____
