We know democracy Is in its Infant stage and largely untested as Is the economy. which is undergoing a painful transformation and still lacks full public support. However. Russia has made surprising strides in respecting the inalienable rights of its citizens. Where once there was suppression of religious beliefs. we now see churches and synagogues being restored. The old state prohibition on Immigration has been replaced with relative freedom of movement both inside and outside Russia. The Russian Jewish Congress choose to publicly recognize Mr. Chemomyrdins record in full view of United States Congressmen and high ranking officials and business and organizational leaders and present an award to him for his public commitment to preserving JewIsh culture and rights in that country.
