Plain-English summary
Urges the President to: (1) request an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council to establish a U.N. Military Command and Expeditionary Force for the Persian Gulf; (2) insist that such a force be constituted and supported in a manner by which the international community fairly shares the financial and military responsibilities of the operation; (3) seek the necessary authorization from the Congress for any U.S. armed forces participation as part of such a U.N. force in any offensive military actions against Iraq; and (4) give U.N. sanctions and high-level diplomacy sufficient time to bring about a peaceful resolution to the crisis.
