For assistance to refugees from the Soviet Union. the bill provides $10 million. I believe we have already discussed in connection with the authorization bill handled by the gentleman from Pennsylvnia . the aidtoTurkey cutoff. In addition to what I have alreldy Pointed out. the continuing resolution contains identical language. as agreed to by the conferees on the Foreign Assistance Act of 1974 which deals with the suspension of military assistance to Turkey. The effect of this language is to suspend all military assistance to Turkey as of February 5. 1975. unless the President certifies to Congress that Turkey is in compliance with the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. the Foreign Military Sales Act. and any agreement entered into under such acts and that substantial progress toward agreement has been made regarding military forces in Cyprus.
