                Memorandum for the Secretary of State

                Pursuant to the authority vested in me by the laws of 
                the United States, including section 1511 of the 
                National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1994 
                (Public Law 103-160) and section 540 of the Foreign 
                Operations, Export Financing, and Related Programs 
                Appropriations Act, 1997 (contained in Public Law 104-
                208 (the ``Act'')), I hereby certify to the Congress 
                that I have determined that the waiver of the 
                application of the prohibition in section 1511(b) of 
                Public Law 103-160 and of the application of section 
                540(a) of the Act is necessary to achieve a negotiated 
                settlement of the conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina 
                that is acceptable to the parties, to the extent that 
                such provisions apply to the furnishing of assistance 
                to facilitate destruction of military equipment.

                Therefore, I hereby waive the application of these 
                provisions with respect to such assistance.

                You are authorized and directed to transmit a copy of 
                this determination to the Congress and arrange for its 
                publication in the Federal Register.

                    (Presidential Sig.)
