Rather. we should draw from this event renewed hope for our efforts as wull as a greater surge of enthusiasm to help those troubled people. Jewish emmigration has steadily declined since the mid1970s. Only 896 were granted exit visas in 1984. compared to a high of 34.733 in 1973. While we saw a very minor increase in 1985. we must make our objective clear: Religious persecution is an abuse of human rights under the Helsinki accords. and we will not stop pressuring the Soviet Government until all Jewish people are granted the right to freely practice their religion. or are permitted the opportunity to emigrate.
