Europe as a matter of importance to the foreign policy of the 
United States; and
(2) the Under Secretary for Political Affairs, acting 
through the Assistant Secretary for European and Eurasian 
Affairs, should diplomatically engage governments of countries 
of apparent concern on efforts for transatlantic cooperation to 
counter and address antisemitism and acts of international 
terrorism that may threaten transatlantic stability, the safety 
and security of United States citizens, and institutions 
abroad.
(b) Consultation.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, and annually thereafter for two years, the 
Assistant Secretary for European and Eurasian Affairs shall consult 
with the appropriate congressional committees on the matters described 
in subsection (a).
(c) Appropriate Congressional Committees Defined.--In this section, 
the term ``appropriate congressional committees'' means--
