We must continue to show our support. as we are doing today. for individuals like Vladimir Feltsman. Andrei Sakharov. Yelena Bonner. Ida Nudel. the Slepaks. Anatoly Shcharansky. Yosef Begun. and the half million others who have applied for permission to emigrate. It is actions like todays vigil which exert pressure on the Soviets to observe minimal standards of humanity 14 years ago. after the notorious Leningrad trials. the strong demonstration of protest by other countries succeeded in commuting the sentences of two of the defendants from death to 15 years. We achieved a major victory at that time and we must continue to pursue others victories on behalf of human lives and human rights.*
