In another incident 19 members of a 23person Latvian Popular Front delegation. upon their return after a 1month visit to the United States and Canada. had documents. personal computers. and telephones confiscated by Soviet officials in Moscow on April 30. Let us hope that these incidents do not become the norm for citizens returning from visits abroad. Finally. problems with individuals receiving visas to come to the United States for visits. such as Dr. Juris Vidins. who was denied a visa to come to the United States to attend the American Latvian Association meeting in early May. must be made routine and the visa process institutionalized. In addition. American citizens traveling to the Soviet Union should not encounter problems such as undue delays in visa processing or. in the case of LithuanianAmerican physician Dr. Peter Kiselius. once arriving in the Soviet Union. facing detentions by Soviet officials. and being told that they should not have received a visa in the first place. Mr. Speaker.
