Memorandum for the Secretary of State
The Secretary of Energy
SUBJECT: Proposed Protocol Amending the Agreement for
Cooperation Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the Republic of Indonesia Concerning Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy
I have considered the proposed Protocol Amending the Agreement for
Cooperation Between the Government of the United States of America and
the Government of the Republic of Indonesia Concerning Peaceful Uses of
Nuclear Energy, signed at Washington on June 30, 1980, along with the
views, recommendations, and statements of the interested agencies.
I have determined that the performance of the Protocol will
promote, and will not constitute an unreasonable risk to, the common
defense and security. Consistent with section 123 b. of the Atomic
Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2153(b)), I hereby approve
the proposed Protocol and authorize you to arrange for its execution.
GEORGE W. BUSH
