His mother is still being harassed by anonymous telephone calls in the middle of the night. Mr. Speaker. the case of Anatoly Sokurenko is symbolic of the sort of cynical disrespect for legality that has contributed to a crisis of confidence in the Soviet system. We read in the Soviet press that there are individuals such as lawyers. intellectucals. journalists. and Government officials who are trying to combat such cases. We hope that this is the case. The Commission also urges that the Soviet Government to allow Mr. Sokurenko to emigrate and start a new life in the West. as he so fervently desires.
