                               EAST TIMOR

  Mr. WELLSTONE. Mr. President, while Senator Feingold is in the 
Chamber, I wish to indicate my support for his effort--our effort--to 
make it crystal clear to the Government of Indonesia that the brutal 
murder of the men and women of East Timor has to stop, that we will 
hold the Government of Indonesia accountable, that we will do 
everything we can to exert our leverage, including the question of 
whether there will be any financial assistance, and that the world 
community is watching. We want to communicate from the floor of the 
Senate our support to the people of East Timor.
