The profound concern expressed for Dr. Sakharov. in the U.S. Congress and from around the world. indicates the giant moral stature of Andrei Sakharov. This Nobel Peace Prize winner. brillant physicist. and tireless advocate for human rights has been a perceived threat to Soviet authorities because he has refused to disappear silently from the world arena. I hope that this resolution will help insure that todays statements by Soviet officials will be followed by the emigration of Liza Alekseyeva and by true freedom for Dr. Sakharov and his wife. and that the principles he represents will grow stronger among all people.
