99-sconres-116 99 sconres 116 A concurrent resolution concerning the ongoing famine in Ethiopia and the Ethiopian Government's resettlement policy. International Affairs 1986-03-12 1986-03-12 Referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations. Senate Sen. Kasten, Robert W., Jr. [R-WI] WI R K000019 20 Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the United States, in cooperation with other members of the international donor community, should call upon the Ethiopian Government to recognize that resources donated for famine relief should be used for that purpose and not diverted to resettlement efforts; (2) such forced resettlements by the Ethiopian Government should be halted and monitored by the United Nations (U.N.); (3) the Ethiopian Government should commit sufficient resources to move food and relief goods to meet the needs of its people; and (4) the U.N. should insist on free access to resettlement sites for international observers and the news media and report on conditions in the resettlement camps. 2025-01-14T19:00:46Z
