East Timer Paramilitary Accountability Resolution - Declares that the United States will no longer accept, condone, finance, or supply the Indonesian military occupiers or their proxies, the paramilitary civilian militia units, in East Timor.
Urges the Secretaries of State and Defense to take an active and visible role in urging the Government of Indonesia and the Indonesian military to: (1) permit an international investigation of the massacre at Liquica; and (2) bring to justice those individuals responsible for gross violations of internationally recognized human rights in East Timor.
Expresses the sense of the Congress that U.S. military assistance and arms transfers should not be provided to the Government of Indonesia unless the President certifies to the Congress that the Government of Indonesia: (1) is no longer arming, financing, or supporting paramilitary units in East Timor, and ceases its own military attacks on civilians, separate from and together with these paramilitary units; (2) has assisted in the disarming and disbanding of such paramilitary units; (3) allows free and open access to East Timor to a continuing United Nations (UN) presence, international human rights and relief and development organizations, and the press; and (4) has reduced substantially the Indonesian military (ABRI) troop presence in East Timor as the beginning of a UN-monitored withdrawal.
