                Pursuant to section 404 of the Child Soldiers

                the United States to waive the application of the 
                prohibition in section 404(a) of the CSPA with respect 
                to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Nigeria, and 
                Somalia; and to waive in part the application of the 
                prohibition in section 404(a) of the CSPA with respect 
                to South Sudan to allow for the provision of 
                International Military Education and Training, and 
                Peacekeeping Operations assistance, and support 
                provided pursuant to section 1208 of the National 
                Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2014, to the 
                extent such assistance or support would be restricted
