              ISRAEL CANCELS SALE OF AWAC SYSTEM TO CHINA

  (Mr. CALLAHAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. CALLAHAN. Mr. Speaker, there has been quite a bit of interest in 
the last couple of months about the Israeli sale of an AWAC system to 
China. It was going to be a major discussion on the floor of the House 
today. I know many Members were concerned about that issue.
  I wanted to tell them that I just received a call from the ambassador 
telling me that Mr. Barak has canceled the AWAC sale to China.
