Speaker. by observing the present state of affairs. you would never know that the Soviet Union is a party to all of these international agreements. Nonetheless. they are signatories and are. therefore. in gross and blantant violation of international law. These statistics of Jewish emigration from 197984 reveal what can only be termed a crisis situationa situation in which never before in the history of the Soviet Jewry movement has the emigration rate been so low. From a high in 1979 of 51.320. emigration has plummeted to an alltime low of 896 Soviet Jews last year. Furthermore. the 1985 figures. so far. are also extremely disquieting. I would suggest.
