(1)The defense articles or services for which the Government of Colombia has requested an Export-Import Bank (Ex-Im Bank) guarantee or insurance, six Elbit weapons management and delivery system kits for installation by Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation on Colombian Air Force helicopters, are being sold primarily for anti-narcotics purposes and to support Colombia's campaign against narcotics trafficking.

(4)The Government of Colombia has complied with all U.S.-imposed end use restrictions on the use of defense articles or services previously financed under the Act.
(5)The Government of Colombia has not engaged in a consistent pattern of gross violations of internationally recognized human rights, taking into consideration whether Colombia has engaged in or tolerated particularly severe violations of religious freedom or has failed to undertake serious and sustained efforts to combat particularly severe violations of religious freedom when such efforts could have been reasonably undertaken. This determination shall be reported to Congress and shall be published in the **Federal Register** . Dated: June 22, 2004. Richard L. Armitage, Deputy Secretary of State, Department of State.
