When we talk with the Soviets about human rights. they say they have a different definition of human rights than we do and they continually remind us of our homeless. our blacks. and our Indians. I think it is appropriate that we remind them with regard to human rights violations of the manner in which they are violating millions of people in Afghanistan. forcing them to leave their homes. to flee to Pakistan. Along with the gentleman from California . our delegation visited some of those refugee camps in Pakistan and saw the millions of people who are living in tragic circumstances because of the war and bloodshed that continually is inflicted upon them in their homeland. I hope that eventually we will see a peaceful negotiation of this occupation by the Soviet Union. this ruthless occupation. Certainly this resolution helps to focus our attention on the need to do Just that and to continue to assist those refugees. Mr. Speaker.
