Although the policy of glasnost has helped to introduce Ideas of democracy Into Soviet political discussion. it has also made it possible for blatantly antiSemitic groups such as the ultranationalist group Pamyat to spread their hateful message. Pamyat has even publicly threatened to carry out pogroms against the Jewish people in Russia. With these developments in mind. it is incumbent upon the United States to urge the Soviet Government to allow all Jews who wish to emigrate out of the Soviet Union to do so without delay. Unfortunately. there has been much delay and many excuses waiting for Jews who wish to leave. The case of Vladimir Tsivkin is a prime example.
