Surely. soviet citizens moving from Irkutsk to Israel will not damage either the reputation or the functioning of the Soviet Union. Mr. Chairman. I have taken the time to discuss these matters because I believe they have a direct relationship to the realities of our dealings with the Soviets in trade and financing. Certainly. giving way on the issue of freedom of emigration. even before we begin bargaining on the specifics of trade and credits. will set a pattern of unilateral U.S. accommodation to the viewpoints of the Soviet Union. I do not want to see our economic and trade policies again become the handmaiden to our foreign policy and its efforts toward detente. Business. after all. is business.
