The United States and all free countries which are fortunate enough to rest secure on their ideals of independence. bereft of political oppression. must continue to provide unwavering. active support for captive nations not so propitious. I have consistently demonstrated my support for captive peoples in the Soviet Union by protesting the persecution of its citizens. most recently. prior to President Nixons visit. Freedom of emigration. an inalienable privilege in free countries and whose assertion we have never had to question. is denied to Soviet citizens. That Soviets will no longer continue to acquiesce to such a flagrant violation of human rights. is evidenced by the dissension that is now permeating the Soviet Union. Scientists. intellectuals. and artists. restrained from leaving the country. are publicly voicing their opposition to the restrictions placed upon them.
