Elana Friedman traveled to Madrid where she appealed to the participants of the Helsinki Review Conference to raise Ida Nudels case. The release of Ida Nudel would be a significant gesture on the part of the Soviet Union. At a time when EastWest relations are at their lowest point in years. a Soviet willingness to extend to her and others exit visas would be a hopeful sign. Ida Nudels arrest and subsequent exile for her attempts to obtain an exit visa are indicative of a blatantly repressive policy against Jews who wish to emigrate. I call on all those concerned about human rights to protest Ida Nudels continued incarceration.*
