Sponsored By: Senator Booker, Cory A. [D-NJ]

In Committee

Summary

Extends the allowed waiver period from one fiscal year to five fiscal years for transfers of defense articles on the U.S. Munitions List to the Republic of Cyprus. It would amend the Eastern Mediterranean Security and Energy Partnership Act of 2019 and a provision in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 by replacing the phrase "one fiscal year" with "five fiscal years" in their waiver language, allowing those specific waivers to last up to five years instead of one.
