Certainly. if we cannot trust the Soviet leaders to respect the Helsinki accords. how can we expect them to respect any international obligation to which they might agree? Even further. Mr. Speaker. I urge every one of my colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives to become involved in Ida Nudels case. Add your letters of protest to mine. Write to President Brezhnev and Ambassador Dobrynin demanding that Ida Nudel be given the right she has under the Helsinki accords to immigrate to Israel to join her family. The more Members of Congress who join us in fighting for her freedom. the more likely the Soviet Union will grant Ida Nudel the freedom she has sought for so long. The time to act is now.*
