But in spite of a d6tente policy there remains a long list of issues that deeply divide the United States and the Soviet Union. Those divisive issues are military. economic. and humanitarianand they are real. Their reality has been forcefully brought home to those of us in this country by recent press reports calling attention to the harassment and arrest of Soviet Jews wishing to emigrate to Israel on the pretense that they would cause embarrassment by demonstrating during the Presidents Moscow visit. According to these press reports. the Soviet security police have already arrested at least 50 Jews from all parts of the Soviet Union while others have been subject to intimidation. surveillance. and official violence. I vehemently deplore this repression.
