H. Res. 68
In the House of Representatives, U.S.,
March 11, 1997.
Whereas the Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security Between the United States
of America and Japan is critical to the security interests of the United
States, Japan, and the countries of the Asia-Pacific region;
Whereas the security relationship between the United States and Japan is the
foundation for the security strategy of the United States in the Asia-
Pacific region;
Whereas strong bilateral security ties between the two countries provide a key
stabilizing influence in an uncertain post-cold war world;
Whereas this bilateral security relationship makes it possible for the United
States and Japan to preserve their interests in the Asia-Pacific region;
Whereas forward-deployed forces of the United States are welcomed by allies of
the United States in the region because such forces are critical for
maintaining stability in East Asia;
Whereas regional stability has undergirded East Asia's economic growth and
prosperity;
Whereas the recognition by allies of the United States of the importance of
United States armed forces for security in the Asia-Pacific region
confers on the United States irreplaceable good will and diplomatic
influence in that region;
Whereas Japan's host nation support is a key element in the ability of the
United States to maintain forward-deployed forces in that country;
Whereas the Governments of the United States and Japan, in the Special Action
Committee on Okinawa Final Report issued by the United States-Japan
Security Consultative Committee established by the two countries, made
commitments to reducing the burdens of United States armed forces on the
people of Japan, especially the people of Okinawa;
Whereas such commitments must maintain the operational capability and readiness
of United States forces; and
Whereas gaining the understanding and support of the people of Japan, especially
the people of Okinawa, in fulfilling these commitments is crucial to the
effective implementation of the Treaty: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) the Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security Between
the United States of America and Japan remains vital to the
security interests of the United States and Japan, as well as
the countries of the Asia-Pacific region; and
(2) the people of Japan, especially the people of Okinawa,
deserve special recognition and gratitude for their
contributions toward ensuring the Treaty's implementation and
regional peace and stability.

Clerk.
