I feel. to promote the cause of international security and stability. In my opinion. the amendment we are considering now represents a reasonable and useful compromise that will accomplish that purpose. Specifically. the amendment would permit completion of those sales contracts with the Turkish government already being processed at the time of the arms embargo on February 5. 1975. it will permit the President to issue licenses for additional arms sales to Turkey where such supplies are clearly necessary for that country to meet its NATO commitment. and it directs the President to open negotiations with Greece for economic and military assistance. and to review the refugee situation in Cyprus. None of these provisions would take effect should Turkey violate the current ceasefire or use these arms in Cyprus. But they may well help to promote further progress in Cyprus negotiations.
