President. now appear to believe they are somehow punishing the United States for its hardline policies. Moscow maintains Washingtons toughtalk rhetoric has seriously harmed United StatesSoviet relations. And in reaction to the current EastWest chill. the Soviets have frozen shut the emigration door. Today. I believe we must make the Soviet Union understand we will never forget the Soviet Jew. We must make them understand that a relaxation of emigration restrictions will immediately bolster United StatesSoviet relations. And we must. in addition. never unnecessarily escalate tensions with our principal adversaryfor such escalation affects the very lives of those forcibly contained within Soviet borders. It is time for the Soviets to end their use of Jews as political pawns and to respect their rights as human beings.
