The continued domination of the Baltic peoples by the Soviets is indeed one of the saddest human tragedies of our time. For the last 44 years. the Soviets have ruthlessly endeavored to suppress Baltic nationalism. Baltic peoples have been systematically and forcefully deported from their homelands to Siberia and masses of Russians have been relocated in the republics. The Soviets have totally eradicated any semblance of democracy. civil liberties. and religious freedom in the Baltic States. Families have been separated. and many individuals have been jailed at hard labor. while others have suffered vile and unspeakable forms of persecution. including death. for any exercise of their religious or ethnic beliefs.
