Subject: Determination to Authorize the Furnishing of Emergency Military

    Pursuant to the authority vested in me by section 506(a)(1) of the 
Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, 22 U.S.C. 2318 (a)(1) (the

      (1) an unforeseen emergency exists, which requires immediate 
      military assistance to an international organization; and
      (2) the emergency requirement cannot be met under the authority of 
      the Arms Export Control Act or any other law except section 506 of

    Therefore, I hereby authorize the furnishing of up to $3,000,000 in 
defense articles and defense services from the Department of Defense to 
the United Nations for purposes of supporting the Rapid Reaction Force 
in Bosnia.
    The Secretary of State is authorized and directed to report this 
determination to the Congress and to arrange for its publication in the
