Speaker. the announcement today that Viktor Brailovsky had been tried and convicted in a Moscow court came. unfortunately. as no suprise.

Since Viktor Brailovsky was refused an exit visa in 1972. he has been organizing weekly gatherings of Jewish scientists who have lost their jobsas Brailovsky didafter applying for a permit to emigrate. The purpose of the seminars was to discuss topics relevant to their professions in order that they might remain up to date with the latest developments in their professional areas of expertise.
