 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Urges: (1) the Government of the People's Republic of China to cancel all arms deals with the Government of Burma until all political prisoners are unconditionally released, martial law is lifted, and the results of the May 1990 elections are fully implemented; and (2) the President to instruct the Secretary of State to call for an end to China's military sales and economic support to Burma during any visit to Beijing or in other high-level contacts with Chinese representatives and to advise such Government that its continued support for the State Law and Order Restoration Council (the Burmese military government) will be a factor in the administration's consideration of extension of nondiscriminatory (most favored nation) trading status for China in 1992.
