    Letter to Congressional Leaders on Trade With Albania, Romania, and
    Certain States of the Former Soviet Union

     June 3, 1993

    Dear Mr. Speaker:    (Dear Mr. President:)

        I hereby transmit the documents referred to in section 402(d)(1) of
    the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2432(d)(1)) (``the Act''),
    with respect to a further 12-month extension of the authority to waive
    sections (a) and (b) of section 402 of the Act. These documents
    constitute my recommendation to continue in effect the waiver authority
    for a further 12-month period, and include my reasons for determining
    that continuation of the waiver authority and waivers currently in
    effect for Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan,
    Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Mongolia, Romania, Russia, Tajikistan,
    Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan will substantially promote the
    objectives of section 402 of the Act.
        Sincerely,
                                                      Bill Clinton

    Note: Identical letters were sent to Thomas S. Foley, Speaker of the
    House of Representatives, and Albert Gore, Jr., President of the Senate.
