I will oppose the increase in arms aid to Turkey being recommended by President Reagan. We cannot continue to increase arms aid to Turkey indefinitely while no progress is being made to resolve the outstanding issues on Cyprus. As I said. Mr. Speaker. the continued human suffering of the refugees on Cyprus deserves our renewed attention. and I can only hope that our discussion today wl1 encourage the Reagan administration to press for meaningful attempts to resolve this problem. That is in our own national interest. and it is also in the interest of those who remain displaced on Cyprus.e
