Memorandum on Determination on Extending the Agreement for Cooperation Between the United States of America and the People's Republic of Bangladesh Concerning Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy

Presidential Determination No. 93-5

Memorandum for the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Energy

I have considered the proposed agreement to extend for a period of 20 years the Agreement for Cooperation Between the United States of America and the People's Republic of Bangladesh Concerning Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy signed at Dhaka September 17, 1981, along with the views, recommendations, and statements of the interested agencies.

I have determined that the performance of the agreement for an additional period of 20 years will promote, and will not constitute an unreasonable risk to, the common defense and security. Pursuant to section 123 b. of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2153(b)), I hereby approve the proposed agreement on extension and authorize you to arrange for its execution.

GEORGE BUSH
