Alas... the other day. we received a new refusal to my application. the 20th. if I am not mistaken. Today. I would like to bring to the attention of my colleagues the case of the Kagan family. a "refusenik" family whom I have recently adopted in an effort to advocate on their behalf for the right to emigrate from the Soviet Union.. Abram Kagan. his wife Svetlana. and their two children. Vadin and Kalara. first applied for permission to emigrate in January 1976. Their applications have been consistently denied on ground that Abram has had contact with state secrets. Abram Kagan has been employed as a senior researcher at the Soviet Academy of Sciences and has worked only in theoretical mathematics.
