It is to be hoped that the enslaved people of the Baltic States are aware of the heroic efforts of the Polish people to regain their independence. Like the Poles. the church is part of their national fiber. and we know that their intense and continuing faith in God allows them to resist oppression even in the face of sure. swift. and cruel reprisal. Mr. President. June 14 has been selected as a day to observe Baltic Freedom Daythe anniversary of the mass deportation of untold thousands of innocent Baltic people to Siberia. I ask that my colleagues support this resolution to keep the plight of the Baltic people before the eyes of the world.
