About the agenda and the schedule of the April (1985) Plenum of the CC CPSU. GORBACHEV. All the comrades received proposals on this issue. They were prepared in connection with the exchange of opinions, which took place earlier. The memo specifies the dates of the convening and holding of the Plenum, which will have to define clearly the issues introduced for the consideration of the XXVII Congress of the CC CPSU. I think we should specify somewhat the wording of the CC CPSU report to the Congress, stating that it is not the next party tasks in foreign and domestic policy but simply party tasks are being introduced for the consideration of the Congress, because the Congress will consider the new edition of the CPSU Program, and the tasks to be determined are not only the immediate party tasks, but also long-term tasks. GROMYKO. Right. GRISHIN. Is there going to be a separate report on the new edition of the Party Program at the Congress? GORBACHEV. No. The Secretariat is introducing the proposal that the issues related to the new edition of the Party Program and the changes to the CPSU Charter should be presented as part of the main report of the Central Committee.

For purposes of recording and coding data on terrorist incidents, we have adhered to definitions that represent a middle ground within the broad range of expert opinion, both foreign and domestic. Terrorism is premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets by subnational groups or clandestine state agents, usu- ally intended to influence an audience. lnternational terrorism is terrorism involving citizens or territory of more than one country.

  • Terrorist Assets Report 1996
    TERRORIST ASSETS REPORT (January 1997) 1996 Annual Report to the Congress on Assets Belonging to Terrorist Countries or International Terrorist Organizations SUMMARY More than 3.1 billion dollars in assets of seven state sponsors of terrorism are located within U.S. jurisdiction. Of that amount more than $3.0 billion are blocked by the U.S. Department of the Treasury pursuant to economic sanctions imposed by the United States against five of the terrorist countries. In addition, approximately $734,000 in assets of international terrorist organizations which were identified and blocked within the united States in 1995, remain blocked in 1996. BACKGROUND Section 304 of Public Law 102-138, as amended by Public Law 103-236 (22 U.S.C. § 2656g), requires the Secretary of the . Treasury, in consultation with the Attorney General and appropriate investigative agencies, to provide annual reports to the Congress concerning the nature and extent of assets held in the United States by terrorist countries and organizations engaged in international terrorism. The Department of the Treasury submitted its first Terrorist Assets Report to the Congress in April 1993. The current report, covering calendar year 1996, is the fifth successive Terrorist Assets Report. The Terrorist Assets Report is submitted to the Committee on Foreign Relations and the Committee on Finance in the Senate and to the Committee on International Relations and the Committee on Ways and Means in the House. It was prepared by the Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"), which has the responsibility for administering and enforcing economic sanctions programs mandated by the President pursuant to his declaration of a national emergency with respect to particular foreign countries and non-state parties.

Lebanese Armed Revolutionary Front (LARF) Date Formed: 1981 Membership: Unknown Headquarters: Beirut ~ of Operations: Western Europe, Lebanon Leadership: George Ibrahim Abdallah (Abdul-Qader saadi) Other Names: None known Political Objectives/Target Audiences: - establish a Marxist-Leninist state in Lebanon force the U.s., Israel, and France to withdraw their presence from Lebanon Background: LARF established its reputation with a series of killings of u.s. and Israeli diplomats in France. Although the leadership of the group and the issuance of its communiques claimed its attacks originated in Beirut, the group used Western Europe as the area of its operations. In 1984, a series of arrests by Italian and French police made further operations there unsafe in the minds of the LARF leadership. Retreat to Lebanon was ordered. It is not surprising that links between LARF and the French terrorist group Action Directe are in evidence. Both share a Marxist orientation as well as the European area of operations. LARF, like other Middle Eastern terrorist groups, ·has found Action Directe to be an important source of support for operations in France and in providing links to other European terrorist groups.
