The issue of whether we should regulate our export of technology to the Soviet Union is a complex one that must be considered case by case. Lenin once remarked that if a profit was to be found. a capitalist could be depended upon to supply the rope for his own hanging. Here. we must be careful to assess any transfer of technology on security and national interest grounds besides on those of profitability. No single Issue relating to d6tente has received more attention than the American congressional support of the right to emigrate for Soviet Jews as a precondition of the extension of mostfavorednation status. As a cosponsor of the Jackson amendment. I endorse the principle that foreign policy must incorporate support for human rights.
