I am including in the Record today a draft Senate Joint Resolution setting forth requirements that must be met before the United States Armed Forces may be deployed in or adjacent to the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro) to conduct offensive ground operations. This draft resolution has been the subject of discussion among numerous Senators, as a possible compromise measure on the subject of Kosovo. My discussions with Senator Daschle and other Senators, from both parties, continue in an effort to determine whether bipartisan agreement can be reached on the timing and substance of a Kosovo debate here in the Senate. I commend the attached resolution to the attention of my colleagues.
