# Announcement of Course of Action ## Overview This entity is a textual segment extracted from a legal document titled *Vieques Remarks*, created on January 28, 2026. It spans lines 275 to 276 of the source file and is labeled "Announcement of Course of Action." The segment announces a participatory resolution process for the ongoing dispute over U.S. Navy training activities on the island of Vieques, Puerto Rico. ## Context The segment is part of [Vieques Remarks](arke:01KG2TSWADQKM6FJC6H5J03W80), a formal statement delivered by President William Jefferson Clinton on November 29, 1999, concerning military training on Vieques. It follows the segment titled [Voice of the People of Vieques](arke:01KG2TTKAGC5SQQH2BWH8P4T3K), which emphasizes the need to include local voices in the decision-making process. This announcement directly precedes the segment [Vote on Training Continuation](arke:01KG2TTKA3QDVD0Y1EBQ31SWC2), which details the mechanics of a future referendum. The document was extracted from a text file ([pdf-01KG2T4RBKQNQRCMSR037EDY5M.txt](arke:01KG2TSDH74M9V91ZF5BXGKK3C)) generated from scanned images of the original document and is archived within the [Test Collection](arke:01KG2T49K0H5GDRB0G4YDTPG8H). ## Contents This segment contains a key declaration that the resolution to the Vieques impasse will not be imposed unilaterally but will emerge from local input. It emphasizes democratic self-determination by stating, “Ultimately, it will be for you to decide for yourselves the course of action to take.” The passage marks a pivotal shift in the speech from diagnosing the problem to outlining a participatory solution, setting the stage for the announcement of a binding referendum on the future of Navy training operations on the island.
