PsssmENr: We are writing to urge you to place the Soviet Jewry issue prominently on the agenda of your planned September 28 meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko. As you said in your statement to the Union of Councils for Soviet Jews last week. these days are tragic times for Jews in the Soviet Union. Emigration decline. human rights abuses and the systematic harassment of longtime refusenlks are problems that have grown to crisis proportions in the past few years. These issues must be part of the agenda of all relevant forums between our two nations. Many of us who have adopted Soviet refuseniks and their families see the human face of the cultural genocide taking place in the Soviet Union today.
