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.
