E.O. 12356:  DECL:  OADR 
TAGS:  ETTC, UNSC, PREL, ETRD, LY 
SUBJECT:  UN SECURITY COUNCIL SANCTIONS ON LIBYA 
 
REF: A) USUN 5745 (NOTAL), B) USUN 5922 (NOTAL) 

1.  (C) SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUEST:  AS POSTS ARE AWARE, 
NEW SANCTIONS AGAINST LIBYA CAME INTO FORCE AT 00:01 EST 
ON 1 DECEMBER 1993.  THESE MEASURES ARE DESIGNED TO BRING 
TO JUSTICE THE PERPETRATORS OF TERRORIST ATTACKS AGAINST 
PAN AM 103 AND UTA 772.  UNSC RESOLUTION 883 FREEZES 
CERTAIN LIBYAN ASSETS ON A WORLD-WIDE BASIS AND BANS THE 
PROVISION OF CERTAIN EQUIPMENT FOR REFINING AND 
TRANSPORTING OIL.  IT TIGHTENS THE INTERNATIONAL AIR 
EMBARGO AND OTHER MEASURES IMPOSED IN 1992 UNDER UNSC 
RESOLUTION 748.  THE USG HAS MAINTAINED A COMPREHENSIVE 
FINANCIAL AND TRADE EMBARGO AGAINST LIBYA SINCE 1986 AND 
IS ALREADY IN FULL COMPLIANCE WITH UNSC RESOLUTION 883. 
IN ADDITION, THE PRESIDENT INSTRUCTED THE DEPARTMENT OF 
COMMERCE ON DECEMBER 3 TO BAN THE REEXPORT FROM FOREIGN 
COUNTRIES TO LIBYA OF U.S.-ORIGIN PRODUCTS COVERED BY THE 
RESOLUTION.  ALL EMBASSIES ARE REQUESTED TO URGE HOST 
GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TO FULLY IMPLEMENT THE UNSC-MANDATED 
SANCTIONS.  POSTS SHOULD ALSO REPORT ON HOST GOVERNMENT 
SANCTIONS IMPLEMENTATION AND ANY INFORMATION RELATING TO 
POSSIBLE VIOLATIONS OF THE SANCTIONS.  TEXT OF UNSC 
RESOLUTION 883 FOLLOWS IN PARA 6.  END SUMMARY AND ACTION 
REQUEST. 

------------ 
UN SANCTIONS 
------------ 

2.  (U) UNSC RESOLUTION 883 FREEZES ASSETS OWNED OR 
CONTROLLED BY THE GOVERNMENT OF LIBYA ON A WORLD-WIDE 
BASIS EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 1.  THIS IS A ONE-TIME "SNAP 
SHOT" FREEZE.  THE PROCEEDS OF THE SALES OF LIBYAN 
PETROLEUM AND AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS EXPORTED FROM LIBYA 
AFTER DECEMBER 1 ARE EXEMPT FROM THE FREEZE, PROVIDED THEY 
ARE DEPOSITED IN SPECIAL ACCOUNTS AND SEGREGATED FROM 
ASSETS SUBJECT TO THE FREEZE.  THE USG INTENDS TO WORK 
AGGRESSIVELY TO IDENTIFY AND BLOCK NON-EXEMPT LIBYAN 
ASSETS WHEREVER THEY MAY BE FOUND. 

3.  (U) UNSC RESOLUTION 883 ALSO BANS THE PROVISION TO 
LIBYA OF CERTAIN EQUIPMENT FOR REFINING AND TRANSPORTING 
OIL.  IT TIGHTENS THE INTERNATIONAL AIR EMBARGO AND OTHER 
MEASURES IMPOSED IN 1992 UNDER UNSC RESOLUTION 748.  UNSC 
RESOLUTION 883 IS THE RESULT OF CLOSE COOPERATION BETWEEN 
THE UNITED STATES, FRANCE AND THE UNITED KINGDOM, WHOSE 
CITIZENS WERE THE PRINCIPAL VICTIMS OF LIBYAN-SPONSORED 
TERRORIST ATTACKS AGAINST PAN AM 103 AND UTA 772, AND 
CONSULTATIONS WITH RUSSIA AND OTHER FRIENDS AND ALLIES. 

----------------------- 
US UNILATERAL SANCTIONS 
----------------------- 

4.  (U) THE US IS ALREADY IN FULL COMPLIANCE WITH THE NEW 
SANCTIONS CONTAINED IN UNSCR 883.  THE US HAS MAINTAINED A 
COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL AND TRADE EMBARGO AGAINST LIBYA 
SINCE JANUARY 1986.  ON DECEMBER 3 PRESIDENT CLINTON 
EXTENDED FOR ANOTHER YEAR THIS COMPREHENSIVE EMBARGO. 
UNDER THE US EMBARGO, ALL LIBYAN ASSETS SUBJECT TO US 
JURISDICTION -- NEARLY USD ONE BILLION -- ARE FROZEN.  ALL 
TRADE WITH LIBYA ISANNED.  IN ADDITION, THE PRESIDENT 
INSTRUCTED THE SECRETARY OF COMMERCE ON DECEMBER 3 TO 
PROHIBIT REEXPORTS FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES TO LIBYA OF 
US-ORIGIN PRODUCTS COVERED BY THE NEW RESOLUTION' 
INCLUDING PETROLEUM REFINING AND TRANSPORTATION EQUIPMENT. 

------------------------------- 

DEMARCHE ON ENFORCING SANCTIONS 
------------------------------- 

5.  (U) EMBASSIES SHOULD CALL UPON APPROPRIATELY SENIOR 
HOST GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TO UNDERSCORE OUR INTEREST IN 
EFFECTIVE IMPLEMENTATION AND ENCOURAGE STRICT ENFORCEMENT 
OF THE UNSC SANCTIONS. 

BEGIN TALKING POINTS: 

-- WE CONTINUE TO STRONGLY SUPPORT EFFORTS BY THE UNITED 
NATIONS TO BRING TO JUSTICE THE PERPETRATORS OF THE 
LIBYAN-SPONSORED TERRORIST ATTACKS ON PAN AM FLIGHT 103 
AND UTA FLIGHT 772. 

-- IN UNSC RESOLUTIONS 731 AND 748' THE UN HAS REPEATEDLY 
DEMANDED THAT LIBYA COOPERATE WITH THE INVESTIGATION OF 
THESE TERRORIST ATTACKS, ENSURE THE APPEARANCE IN COURT OF 
THE PERPETRATORS, RENOUNCE SUPPORT FOR INTERNATIONAL 
TERRORISM, AND COMPENSATE THE VICTIMS OF LIBYAN TERRORISM. 

-- ONCE AGAIN LIBYA HAS FAILED TO MEET A UN DEADLINE.  UN 
SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION 883 SIGNALS THAT LIBYA CANNOT 
CONTINUE TO DEFY JUSTICE AND FLOUT THE DEMANDS OF THE 
INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY WITH IMPUNITY. 

-- THE SANCTIONS MEASURES CONTAINED IN UNSC RESOLUTION 883 
ARE DESIGNED TO PUNISH THE LIBYAN GOVERNMENT, NOT THE 
LIBYAN PEOPLE.  THESE MEASURES CAME INTO EFFECT DECEMBER 
1.  THEY REQUIRE STATES TO FREEZE CERTAIN LIBYAN ASSETS 
AND BAN THE PROVISION TO LIBYA OF CERTAIN EQUIPMENT FOR 
REFINING AND TRANSPORTING OIL.  UNSC RESOLUTION 883 ALSO 
TIGHTENS THE INTERNATIONAL AIR EMBARGO AND OTHER MEASURES 
IMPOSED IN 1992 UNDER UNSC RESOLUTION 748. 

-- THESE MEASURES MAY BE SUSPENDED IF LIBYA ENSURES THE 
APPEARANCE OF THOSE CHARGED WITH THE BOMBING OF PAN AM 103 
FOR TRIAL BEFORE THE APPROPRIATE UK OR US COURT AND 
SATISFIES FRENCH JUDICIAL AUTHORITIES WITH RESPECT TO THE 
BOMBING OF UTA 772. 

-- THE US HAS FULLY IMPLEMENTED THE UN SANCTIONS MEASURES 
FOR LIBYA.  US BILATERAL SANCTIONS AGAINST LIBYA IN FORCE 
SINCE 1986 FREEZE ALL LIBYAN ASSETS SUBJECT TO US 
JURISDICTION AND BAN ALL FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS AND 
TRADE.  IN ADDITION, THE PRESIDENT ORDERED ON DECEMBER 3 A 
N ON THE REEXPORT FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES TO LIBYA OF 
US-ORIGIN PRODUCTS COVERED BY UNSC RESOLUTION 883, 

INCLUDING EQUIPMENT FOR REFINING AND TRANSPORTING OIL. 

-- UNSC 883 EMBODIES THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY'S 
COMMITMENT TO CURB INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM.  WE CALL UPON 
ALL OTHER COUNTRIES TO MEET THEIR COMMITMENTS TO THE 
INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY AND ACTIVELY IMPLEMENT THE 
SANCTIONS MEASURES CONTAINED IN UNSC RESOLUTION 883. 

-- THE LIBYA SANCTIONS COMMITTEE IS EXPECTED TO ISSUE 
GUIDANCE ON IMPLEMENTATION OF UNSC RESOLUTION 883.  THE 
USG WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS FROM YOUR 
GOVERNMENT CONCERNING IMPLEMENTATION OF THE RESOLUTION. 
HOWEVER, THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IMPLEMENTATION HAS ALREADY 
BEGUN AND ACTION SHOULD NOT WAIT FOR AN ANSWER FROM THE 
SANCTIONS COMMITTEE OR THE USG. 

-- UNSC RESOLUTION 883 REQUIRES MEMBER STATES TO REPORT TO 
THE SECURITY COUNCIL BY JANUARY 15 ON NATIONAL 
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE RESOLUTION.  WE BELIEVE THE DEGREE 
OF EFFECTIVE IMPLEMENTATION IS AN IMPORTANT INDICATOR OF 
MEMBERS' DETERMINATION TO COMBAT TERRORISM AND RESPECT UN 
OBLIGATIONS.

6.  (U) BEGIN TEXT OF UNSC RESOLUTION 883:
