President Clinton yesterday once again succumbed to international pressure, this time by suspending part of the important sanctions on the Castro dictatorship that 80 percent of this Congress voted for just a few months ago after Castro killed four Americans over international waters. Incredibly, the President who vetoed tort reform, citing the rights of Americans to sue Americans, yesterday took away the right of Americans to sue foreigners who traffic in property stolen by those foreigners from Americans. President Clinton showed once again what pressure can get you during this American presidency if you are an enemy of the United States. The North Koreans got billions of United States taxpayer dollars by saying that they would otherwise build nuclear powerplants. Iraq was allowed to sell billions of dollars of oil again. Iran was invited into Bosnia. Mr. Speaker, despite the collapse of the Soviet Union, a weak, indecisive White House such as the current one is hazardous to the safety of the Nation.
