I strongly deplore the violence in China. and have cosponsored legislation by Congresswoman BARBARA KENNELLY which expresses the sense of the Congress that the American people support the Chinese in their struggle for democracy. liberty. and justice. This legislation also contains provisions to communicate with the Chinese Government that any further violence will have serious ramifications in United StatesChinese relations. I also support the measured response taken by President Bush suspending all United States weapons sales to the Chinese. the suspension of all military contacts between military officials of the two nations. the extension of sympathetic visas to Chinese students in the United States who wish to remain in the United States. and immediate assistance to the Chinese people by the International Red Cross. My dear colleagues. please join me in condemnation of the terrible violence and repression taken by the Chinese Government against its own people. Perhaps together. the United States and the World Community can convince the Chinese Government to end the senseless violence against the peaceful protesters.
