Proclamation 7060 of December 12, 1997
Suspension of Entry as Immigrants and
Nonimmigrants of Persons Who Are Senior Officials of
the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola
(``UNITA'') and Adult Members of Their Immediate
Families
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
In light of the failure of the National Union for the
Total Independence of Angola (``UNITA'') to comply with
its obligations under the ``Accordos de Paz,'' the
Lusaka Protocol, and other components of the peace
process in Angola, and in furtherance of United Nations
Security Council Resolution 1127 of August 28, 1997,
1130 of September 29, 1997, and 1135 of October 29,
1997, I have determined that it is in the foreign
policy interests of the United States to restrict the
entry into the United States of aliens described in
section 1 of this proclamation.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, WILLIAM J. CLINTON, by the power
vested in me as President of the United States by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, including sections 212(f) and 215 of the
Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, as amended (8
U.S.C. 1182(f) and 1185), and section 301 of title 3,
United States Code, hereby find that the entry into the
United States of aliens described in section 1 of this
proclamation as immigrants or nonimmigrants would,
except as provided for in section 2 of this
proclamation, be detrimental to the interests of the
United States. I do therefore proclaim that:
Section 1. The entry into the United States as
immigrants and nonimmigrants of senior officials of
UNITA and adult members of their immediate families, is
hereby suspended.
Sec. 2. Section 1 shall not apply with respect to any
person otherwise covered by section 1 where the entry
of such person would not be contrary to the interests
of the United States.
Sec. 3. Persons covered by section 1 and 2 shall be
identified by the Secretary of State.
Sec. 4. In identifying persons covered by section 2,
the Secretary shall consider whether a person otherwise
covered by section 1 is an official necessary for the
full functioning of the Government of Unity and
National Reconciliation, the National Assembly, or the
Joint Commission, within the meaning of paragraph 4(a)
of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1127 of
August 28, 1997.
Sec. 5. This proclamation is effective immediately and
shall remain in effect until such time as the Secretary
of State determines that it is no longer necessary and
should be terminated.
Sec. 6. The Secretary of State is hereby authorized to
implement this proclamation pursuant to such procedures
as the Secretary of State may establish.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
twelfth day of December, in the year of our Lord
nineteen hundred and ninety-seven, and of the
Independence of the United States of America the two
hundred and twenty-second.
(Presidential Sig.)
