Condemning Turkey for its illegal occupation of Cyprus and encouraging President Biden to make the resolution of the Cyprus problem a top foreign policy priority.

H.Res. 376 is a resolution that formally expresses the sense of the U.S. House of Representatives regarding the ongoing division of Cyprus. The bill condemns Turkey’s military presence on the island, calls for the immediate withdrawal of Turkish troops, and urges the Biden administration to prioritize a diplomatic resolution to the conflict.

While this resolution does not create new domestic laws or impact federal spending, it serves as a formal statement of American foreign policy. For citizens, its primary impact is signaling a potential shift in U.S. diplomatic relations with Turkey and NATO, emphasizing a commitment to international law and the reunification of Cyprus under a democratic framework.
