I am confident that under the able leadership of Congressmen ROSENTHAL. BRADEMAS. and SARBANES. we will defeat efforts to reinstate aid to Turkey through the MansfieldScott resolution. Also. we must do all we can to help Cypriot refugees. As I am sure my colleagues know. a conference committee of the Foreign Operations Subcommittee of the Appropriations Committee. of which I am a member. voted on March 20 to increase aid to Greek Cypriot refugees to $25 million. While that is important. the issue of who controls our foreign policy toward Cyprus is crucial. If we forfeit our responsibility and allow a resumption of aid to Turkey. we are in effect putting our imprimatur on aggression.
