The purpose of JacksonVanik is emigration. We have. in fact. been able to use the leverage of JacksonVanik to achieve some limited human rights changes. We have. for example. been successful in getting some passports issued and some Bibles printed. because we have a relationship. we have negotiations and they go on every year. I can assure the Senator from Connecticut that when I have met with the Romanian Ambassador. I have pressed the human rights question as well as the emigration question. But the purpose of JacksonVanik is emigration. It has worked. My point is that this is a gun with one shot in it.
