Mr. Gorbachev said in his speech that there should be no conditions for aid. His exact words: "It is also futile and dangerous to set conditions." In other words. the Soviets will not agree to do anything in exchange for aidnot more movement toward a market economy. not a reduction of weapons. not implementation of more liberal immigration laws. not instituting clear democratic reforms. not codifying the right of the individual to practice a religion of their choice. nothing. Mr. Gorbachev has said very clearly that there should be no conditions for aid and that the West should send enormous sums of money to the Soviet Union because the Soviet Union is entitled to that aid.
