They have been deprived of their independence. subjugated to the Communist system. and find their nationalistic tendencies thwarted at every turn. From the very beginning of Russian occupation. the Soviets have conducted a stringent campaign to remove all traces of nationalism among the Baltic peoples. Within the first year following the Russian invasion over 100.000 Baltic peoples were deported to remote regions of the Soviet Union. Despite the captivity in which they live. despite the tragedies they have endured. the Baltic peoples throughout the world remain dedicated to the restoration of the independence of their respective fatherlands. In recognition of the unsubmissive spirit of the Baltic people. we take this occasion to reassure them of our moral support.
