Yet. despite this gloomy picture. the citizens of the Soviet Union remain strong and steadfast in their desire for freedom. This desire is demonstrated in the actions of the Leningrad prisoners. The trials and lengthy prison terms prompted international outcry. As a result of Western protests. the original death sentences were reduced to prison terms. Once again. I would like to take this opportunity to single out the Rozenshtein family. The family has been denied permission to emigrate since 1974. yet they relentlessly refuse to give up hope. Grigory and Natalia. along with their two sons. Mikhail and Efraim live in a constant state of torment and danger. indeed they are not alone.
