I rise today to cosponsor legislation introduced by my good friend and colleague. the senior Senator from New Hampshire. This resolution. Senate Resolution 267. would establish a special panel on asylum to investigate the handling of the Soviet sailor. Miroslav Medvid. who recently tried to defect to the United States in Louisiana. On October 24. Miroslav Medvid. a Soviet sailor. jumped from his ship. the MV Konev. and swam ashore. He was picked up by the Border Patrol only to be brought back to the M.V. Konev. On the way back. however. he again jumped overboard and again swam to shore.
