Does or does not the KissingerJackson compromise interfere in Russias internal affairs? Secretary KISSINER. The compromise which I have put before the committee takes great care to maintain the distinctions that we have tried to elaborate while hopefully producing a positive outcome of what we are attempting to achieve. namely. increased Jewish emigration. Senator BYRD. In replying to my second question. you stated it was very unusual for one nation to attempt to interfere in the emigration matters of another nation. and I certainly agree with that statement. Then you point out that you have made great progress in this regard. What continually comes to my mind is why would the second most powerful nation in the world bow to the demands of the Congress for concessions on Soviet emigration? Does this not suggest just how badly Russia needs and wants American technology. longterm loans and taxpayersubsidized interest rates? Secretary KISSNER.
