Mr. Speaker. I rise in support of House Concurrent Resolution 389. condemning the harassment and persecution by the Soviet Government of Vladimir Kislik. and other Soviet human rights activists. This resolution was ordered favorably reported by a unanimous voice vote of the Committee on Foreign Affairs yesterday. Vladimir Kislik was a distinguished scientist at the Kiev Institute of Nuclear Research in the 1960s. In 1973. Mr. Kisliks wife and son were allowed to leave for Israel. but his visa application was denied. Since that time. Mr. Kislik has been subjected to constant harassment. including threats. KGB surveillance. interrogations. and brutal beatings.
