Their love of liberty remains undiminished today. despite the efforts of the Soviet Union to destroy Estonia as a national entity. Estonia has felt the full force of Soviet brutality. But the mass deportations of population. the transfer of large groups to remote regions of the Soviet Union as forced labor. and the individual persecutions. have all failed to subdue the flame of liberty in the Estonian heart. Mr. President. in taking note of this anniversary. we must publicly restate our unswerving friendship for the people of Estonia. while we publicly condemn the action of the Soviet leaders in enslaving. torturing. and persecuting the people of this great land.
