Under the JacksonVanik amendment. Romania holds American MFN privileges only so long as the U.S. President annually (a) certifies that Romania permits its citizens to emigrate. or (b) explicitly suspends that requirement for freedom of emigration. A consultation of U.S. State Department and other reports can lead to but one conclusion: Very few Romanians are allowed to emigrate. and the rest are permitted few of the human rights enshrined in the United Nations Declaration. Together with Congressman TONY HALL and FRANK WOLF. my colleague from New Jersey CHRISTOPHER SMITH has closely monitored the human rights situation inside Romania. The three Members made a trip there during the past month to examine governmental practices at first hand.
