Speaker. there are many violations by the Soviet Union of human rights which deserve condemnation. and doing so publicly in a number of instances may in fact improve treatment by the Soviet Communist leadership of Soviet citizens. One case in point is that of Vladimir Feltsman. This internationally renowned musician has been refused permission to come to the United States for a performance at the John F. Kennedy Center on December 10. In the past. Mr. Feltsman has been harassed and so has his family because of his desire to emigrate with his family to Israel. I hope passage of this resolution will be heeded in Moscow. Congressman LANTOS is to be commended for bringing this resolution to the floor. and the gentleman from New York for introducing it.
