Ive come to American to recover." It is indeed tragic that Inna could neither recover here nor die in the loving arms of her husband. Naum. The Soviets delay in allowing Inna to emigrate. and subsequent cruel separation of husband and wife during the critical stage of her illness. cast doubt on the new Soviet emigration policy. The Soviets will have to do more in the coming months and years to back up their words with actions which demonstrate that their new policy of openness. with its concomitant promise of expeditious emigration. is a reality and not merely rhetoric. I am encouraged by the recent release of 140 Soviet political prisoners. and the announcement that more cases are being reviewed. This is a positive sign. but it must be followed up by more releases and fullscale political amnesty.
