I am appealing to my colleagues to join in supporting this resolution of congressional concern to bring international cognizance that by these transgressions the Soviet Government and the Ukrainian SSR are in flagrant violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to which they are signatory parties. This resolution. expressing our desire to apply the standards of human justice and human rights so common to all of us. urges the President to use appropriate means to request the Soviet Governinent to release Mr. Moroz and Mr. Plyushch. permitting them and their immediate families to emigrate from the Soviet Union to the country of their choice. Our Nation must continue. with relentless resolve. to safeguard basic human rights for the suffering and for the persecuted. wherever they may be found.
