This is a direct threat to Soviet emigres who wish to attend the games as participants. spectators. or journalists. As in the past. detention and restrictions are a way of life for many who live in. or visit. the Soviet Union. There is also a real danger that the Soviets will continue their practice of denying visas to selected Individuals who do not meet their discriminatory standards for entrance. The Soviets maintained this intolerable policy during their recent book fair in Moscow. Such Soviet policies clearly violate the substance and spirit of Olympic fair play. mutual respect. and equity for all.
