Plain-English summary
Denies most-favored-nation treatment to imports from Yugoslavia unless, within ten days of enactment of this Act, the President reports to the Congress that Yugoslavia has released all U.S. citizens who have been detained without justification and that Yugoslavia has ceased to implement a program which results in such unjustified detainment of U.S citizens. Requires such denial of most-favored-nation treatment, if it goes into effect, to remain in effect until such conditions are met.
