 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Urges the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the majority leader of the Senate, and the Administration to support the efforts and recommendations of the U.S. Congress-Russian Duma meeting in Vienna, Austria, held April 30 to May 1, 1999, to bring about a fair, equitable, and peaceful settlement between warring factions in Yugoslavia.

Urges that focus be provided on the following three tasks (without regard to sequence) to achieve such a settlement: (1) the termination of bombing by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia; (2) the withdrawal of Serbian armed forces from Kosovo; and (3) the cessation of the military activities of the Kosovo Liberation Army. Calls for such tasks to be accomplished through a specified series of confidence-building measures, including: (1) the release of all prisoners of war; (2) the repatriation of all refugees; and (3) an agreement on the composition of the international forces which would administer Kosovo after the Serbian withdrawal.
