                Presidential Determination No. 2004-44 of September 10, 
                2004

                
Presidential Determination and Certification 
                Concerning Libya Under Section 101 and 102(b) of the 
                Arms Export Control Act and Determination on Export-
                Import Bank Support for U.S. Exports to Libya

                Memorandum for the Secretary of State

                Pursuant to section 101 of the Arms Export Control Act, 
                I hereby determine that Libya received nuclear 
                enrichment equipment, material, or technology after 
                August 4, 1977. I hereby determine and certify that the 
                continued termination of assistance, as required by 
                this section, would have a serious adverse effect on 
                vital United States interests and that I have received 
                reliable assurances that Libya will not acquire or 
                develop nuclear weapons or assist other nations in 
                doing so.

                Pursuant to section 102(b) of the Arms Export Control 
                Act, I hereby determine that Libya, a non-nuclear 
                weapon state, sought and received design information 
                that I determine to be important to, and intended by 
                Libya for use in, the development or manufacture of a 
                nuclear explosive device. I hereby determine and 
                certify that the application of sanctions, as required 
                by this section, would have a serious adverse effect on 
                vital United States interests.

                Pursuant to section 2(b)(4) of the Export-Import Bank 
                Act of 1945, as amended, I hereby determine and certify 
                that it is in the national interest for the Export-
                Import Bank to guarantee, insure, or extend credit, or 
                participate in the extension of credit in support of 
                United States exports to Libya.

                You are directed to report this determination to the 
                Congress and to provide copies of the justification 
                explaining the basis for this determination. You are 
                further directed to publish this determination in the 
                Federal Register.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    Washington, September 10, 2004.
