** CoCom (Coordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Controls) is a nontreaty organization of 17 member nations that cooperatively restricts strategic exports to controlled countries. Section 5(k) of the Export Administration Act provides preferential treatment (CoCom license privileges) for countries that promise to adopt the “five essential elements” defined by CoCom as constituting an effective export control program.
