sense of congress on contracting for delivery of assistance by air

contract with small, domestic air transport providers for purposes of

Sec. 699. (a) Congress makes the following findings:
(1) International organizations and non-governmental
observers, including the Organization for Security and
Cooperation in Europe, the National Democratic Institute, and
Human Rights Watch documented widespread government
manipulation of the electoral process in advance of the
Presidential election held in Azerbaijan on October 15, 2003.
(2) Such organizations and the Department of State reported
widespread vote falsification during the election, including
ballot stuffing, fraudulent additions to voter lists, and
irregularities with vote tallies and found that election
commission members from opposition parties were bullied into
signing falsified vote tallies.
(3) The Department of State issued a statement on October
21, 2003 concluding that the irregularities that occurred
during the elections ``cast doubt on the credibility of the
election's results''.
(4) Human Rights Watch reported that government forces in
Azerbaijan used excessive force against demonstrators
protesting election fraud and that such force resulted in at
least one death and injuries to more than 300 individuals.
(5) Following the elections, the Government of Azerbaijan
arrested more than 330 individuals, many of whom are leaders
and rank-and-file members of opposition parties in Azerbaijan,
including individuals who served as observers and polling-
station officials who refused to sign vote tallies from polling
stations that the individuals believed were fraudulent.
(6) The national interest of the United States in promoting
stability in the Caucasus and Central Asia and in winning the
war on terrorism is best protected by maintaining relationships
with democracies committed to the rule of law.
(7) The credible reports of fraud and intimidation cast
serious doubt on the legitimacy of the October 15, 2003
Presidential election in Azerbaijan and on the victory of Ilham
Aliev in such election.
(b) It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the President and the Secretary of State should urge
the Government of Azerbaijan to create an independent
commission, with participation from the Organization for
Security and Cooperation in Europe and the Council of Europe,
to investigate the fraud and intimidation surrounding the
October 15, 2003 election in Azerbaijan, and to hold a new
election if such a commission finds that a new election is
warranted;
(2) the violence that followed the election should be
condemned and should be investigated in a full and impartial
investigation;
(3) the perpetrators of criminal acts related to the
election, including Azerbaijani police, should be held
accountable; and
(4) the Government of Azerbaijan should immediately release
from detention all members of opposition political parties who
were arrested for peacefully expressing political opinions.
(c) Not later than 90 days after the date of the enactment of this
Act, the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Attorney General,
shall submit a report to the Committee on Foreign Relations and the
Committee on Appropriations of the Senate and the Committee on
International Relations and the Committee of Appropriations of the
House of Representatives on the investigation of the murder of United
States democracy worker John Alvis. Such report shall include--
