Terrorism focus: protect air transportation; limit funding

The U.S. proposed steps to stop terrorism before it happens and to respond more effectively:
1. Measures to protect mass transportation: Implement tough standards for bomb detection and tighter security at airports. We agreed to standards for more complete and accurate passenger and cargo manifests, “terrorist-proof” vehicle identification numbers, and new methods for tracing explosives.
2. Experts meet to draft a terrorist bombing treaty.
3. Develop means of lawful government access to scrambled communications by terrorists.
4. Call on all parties to the biological weapons convention to make it a crime for individuals to use or possess biological weapons.
5. Prevent terrorist fund-raising; to promote cooperation in controlling borders; to urge nations to impose severe sentences and prevent abuse of political asylum by terrorists.
