As Chairman of the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe. better known as the Helsinki Commission. I strongly support this resolution and call upon my colleagues to do more than just vote for it. This resolution and the cause it stands for. human rights for persons living in the Soviet Union and freedom to leave for those who wish to emigrate. deserve and indeed demand our wholehearted commitment. Many worthy causes come before this body. seeking an expression of our support. This cause is specialhuman lives are at stake. We must again highlight Soviet human rights abuses and their denial of permission to emigrate to Soviet Jews. Armenians. Ethnic Germans. and others.
