I would like to call my colleagues attention to his words: In March and April. 1977. during the preliminary interrogations. those conducting the investigation warned me that In view of the position taken by me during the investigation. the one which I have maintained during the course of this trial. I will be likely to be given the death sentence or. as a minimum. 15 years of confinement. I was told that if I agreed to collaborate with the KGB in order to destroy the Jewish emigration movement. then I will be given a short sentence. quick release and even the possibility of joining my wife. Five years ago. I applied for a visa to Israel. but now I am further than ever away from the attainment of my dream. It might appear that I must have regrets about what has happened. But this is not so.
