The message he wanted to send back to the United States was that the freedom fighters were going to fight on until the last Russian troop and the last vestige of the Soviet influence is pushed back out of their country. The freedom fighters would compromise and settle for nothing less. They thought it was the responsibility of Afghanistan citizens and people to help get the 3 million refugees back in the country. and restore a government that is suitable to the wishes of the Afghan peoplenot something thatmight be suitable to the United States. the Soviet Union. or any other parties. that they wanted it suitable to their own countrymen. So I have sent a "Dear Colleague" letter out which I ask unanimous consent that at the end of my remarks it be printed in the RECORD.
