Sec. 286w. Denial of membership or other status in Fund for
Palestine Liberation Organization; United States participation
in Fund if membership or other status granted; report by
President to Congress
It is the policy of the United States that the Palestine Liberation
Organization should not be given membership in the Fund or be given
observer status or any other official status at any meeting sponsored by
or associated with the Fund. The United States Executive Director of the
Fund shall promptly notify the Fund of such policy.
In the event that the Fund provides either membership, observer
status, or any other official status to the Palestine Liberation
Organization, such action would result in a serious diminution of United
States support. Upon review of such action, the President would be
required to report his recommendations to the Congress with regard to
any further United States participation in the Fund.
