This Congrers and this Nation cannot turn a blind eye to these violations. The Soviet Union was a signator to the Helsinki accords. and we fully expect them to abide by the provisions of that agreement. We have no choice but to coexist with the Soviet Union. But if they are truly interested in reducing tensions and creating a new spirit of cooperation. they must live up to their previous commitments. As long as people are persecuted for exercising their inalienable right to emigrate or practice their faith. we cannot sanction a policy of "business as usual" with the Soviet Union.*
