The subcommittees met at 11:05 a.m., in room 2200, Rayburn House Office Building, Hon. Gus Yatron (chairman of the Subcom- mittee on Human Rights and International Organizations) presid- ing. Mr. YATRON. The subcommittees will come to order. The Subcom- mittee on Human Rights and International Organizations and the Subcommittee on Europe and the Middle East meet today to con- tinue our investigation into religious persecution in the Soviet Union. I want to thank the co-chairman of this hearing, Congressman Lee Hamilton, for his leadership on this issue and for his efforts in putting together these important hearings. Last year, we conducted a hearing on the plight of Soviet Jewry and found that pervasive and brutal repression continues against the Jewish population, in particular those interested in emigrating. Today, we will take a look at how the Soviet system treats Chris- tians, Muslims, and others who wish to exercise their fundamental right of religious expression. President Reagan and the Soviet leader Gorbachev have signed a joint statement calling for greater cooperation between our two countries on a number of important issues, including humanitarian concerns. In addition, the Soviets have made some gestures on human rights issues in releasing Mr. Shcharansky, allowing Dr. Yelena Bonner to travel to the West for medical treatment, and permitting some of their citizens to join relatives in the United States. Whether or not these actions indicate any meaningful change in overall Soviet human rights policy can partly be determined by the manner in which the Kremlin treats its citizens. Unfortunately, the Soviet Government continues to have in place an extensive system to control religious activity. Religious congre- gations must continue to register with Soviet authorities and are closely monitored. Believers cannot engage in charitable activities, (1) 2 reach prestigious positions in society or provide formal religious training to their children. There is an extreme shortage of places of worship, seminaries, and clerics. In addition, victims of religious persecution have de- picted gruesome accounts of prison beatings, house raids, arrests, and staged trials, confiscation of Bibles and other religious materi- als, disruption of services, slander campaigns, removal of children from homes and abuses in psychiatric hospitals. While belief in God is incompatible with Marxist/Leninst doc- trines, some other Communist states have allowed greater religious freedom than the Soviet Union. Moreover, this inconsistency has not prevented the Soviets from acknowledging religious rights in its constitution and authorities have apparently recognized the propaganda value of tolerating the minimal level of religious activ- ity. Therefore, it should not be considered futile to continue to press the Soviets to relax restrictions on religious expression. That is one of the purposes of the hearing today. We want to focus public at- tention on the millions of Soviet citizens who suffer various forms of persecution for exercising their belief in God, a fundamental, internationally recognized right. I look forward to hearing our witnesses today. Any recommenda- tions or suggestions on actions the United States might pursue to promote religious freedom in the Soviet Union are welcome. I would now like to call on the co-chair of this hearing, Congress- man Lee Hamilton, Chairman of the Subcommittee on Europe and the Middle East. Mr. HAMILTON. Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. We appre- ciate your initiative in these matters on human rights, and we want to follow your leadership. We welcome today Assistant Secretary Schifter. We are very glad to have him, and, of course, we are especially pleased to have our former colleague with us, Mr. Derwinski. He is always welcome in these rooms, and it is good to see him with us. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. YATRON. Thank you, Chairman Hamilton. I would like to call on Mr. Torricelli. Did you have a comment or statement? Mr. TORRICELLI. No. I prefer to move forward. Mr. YATRON. Thank you. Our first panel of witnesses today are from the Department of State. We are pleased to welcome our former colleague, Hon. Edward Derwinski, Counselor of the Department of State, and former Member of Congress from the State of Illinois; and Hon. Richard Schifter, Assistant Secretary of State, Bureau of Human Rights and Humanitarian Affairs. We are very pleased to have both of you with us today. Mr. Der- winski, you may proceed with your statement when you are ready. Let me just state for the record that your entire statements will be included in the hearing record. You may summarize your state- ments, if you would like. Mr. Derwinski. 3 STATEMENT OF HON. EDWARD J. DERWINSKI, COUNSELOR, DE- PARTMENT OF STATE, AND FORMER MEMBER OF CONGRESS FROM THE STATE OF ILLINOIS Mr. DERWINSKI. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Andrews of Wayne State University for introducing me to the phenomenon of dissent in the Soviet Union. As for the project itself, Dr. John Gorgone of Western Michigan University not only suggested the approach to the phenomenon, but also had a fundamental role in shaping the perspective from which observations were made. The success of the research phase of the project is due, in great part, to the encouragement and assistance of Lt. Col. Carlton Willis of the Army Security Agency Training Center and School.

  • Yelena Bonner—A Commanding Voice for Human Rights & Heroic Figure for Karabagh Armenians Passes Away
    ZORYAN INSTITUTE OF CANADA, INC. PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Patil Halajian DATE: June 23, 2011 Tel: 416-250-9807 Yelena Bonner—a Commanding Voice for Human Rights & Heroic Figure for Karabagh Armenians Passes Away Armenians mourn the loss of Yelena Bonner, a great humanist, and a leading combatant against the injustices of the Soviet era. She will forever remain relevant and inspirational to people worldwide, and to Armenians particularly, because of her forceful advocacy on behalf of the people of Karabagh. Yelena Bonner, the wife of Andrei Sakharov, the Soviet Union's most prominent dissident scientist, and developer of Russia‟s first hydrogen bomb, was co-founder the Moscow Helsinki Group in the 1970s. By relentlessly challenging state oppression, it quickly became the most active rights group in the entire movement. The organization‟s mission was to publicize Soviet violations of the Helsinki Accord signed in 1975, recognizing Soviet hegemony in photo by Mikhail Lemkhin return for assurance of fundamental freedoms and human rights guarantees. Throughout her lifetime, Ms. Bonner lent her voice to many causes. She spoke very passionately on the human rights violations committed by Azerbaijan in Karabagh and virtually from the onset of the national liberation movement there, she defended the right of the Armenian nation to self-determination. She did so from the highest platforms, calling international attention to the issue. Among her public appearances was a lecture on “Nationalities in the Soviet Union: Possible Solutions within the Framework of a Revised Constitution,” which she made under the auspices of the Zoryan Institute and the Amnesty International Group of Harvard Law School in 1990.

  • Human Rights and History a Challenge for Education
    edited by Rainer Huhle HUMAN RIGHTS AND HISTORY A CHALLENGE FOR EDUCATION edited by Rainer Huhle H UMAN The Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Genocide Convention of 1948 were promulgated as an unequivocal R response to the crimes committed under National Socialism. Human rights thus served as a universal response to concrete IGHTS historical experiences of injustice, which remains valid to the present day. As such, the Universal Declaration and the Genocide Convention serve as a key link between human rights education and historical learning. AND This volume elucidates the debates surrounding the historical development of human rights after 1945. The authors exam- H ine a number of specific human rights, including the prohibition of discrimination, freedom of opinion, the right to asylum ISTORY and the prohibition of slavery and forced labor, to consider how different historical experiences and legal traditions shaped their formulation. Through the examples of Latin America and the former Soviet Union, they explore the connections · A CHALLENGE FOR EDUCATION between human rights movements and human rights education. Finally, they address current challenges in human rights education to elucidate the role of historical experience in education.

  • Organized Crime and the Russian State Challenges to U.S.-Russian Cooperation
    Organized Crime and the Russian State Challenges to U.S.-Russian Cooperation J. MICHAEL WALLER "They write I'm the mafia's godfather. It was Vladimir Ilich Lenin who was the real organizer of the mafia and who set up the criminal state." -Otari Kvantrishvili, Moscow organized crime leader.l "Criminals Nave already conquered the heights of the state-with the chief of the KGB as head of a mafia group." -Former KGB Maj. Gen. Oleg Kalugin.2 Introduction As the United States and Russia launch a Great Crusade against organized crime, questions emerge not only about the nature of joint cooperation, but about the nature of organized crime itself. In addition to narcotics trafficking, financial fraud and racketecring, Russian organized crime poses an even greater danger: the theft and t:rafficking of weapons of mass destruction. To date, most of the discussion of organized crime based in Russia and other former Soviet republics has emphasized the need to combat conven- tional-style gangsters and high-tech terrorists. These forms of criminals are a pressing danger in and of themselves, but the problem is far more profound. Organized crime-and the rarnpant corruption that helps it flourish-presents a threat not only to the security of reforms in Russia, but to the United States as well. The need for cooperation is real. The question is, Who is there in Russia that the United States can find as an effective partner? "Superpower of Crime" One of the greatest mistakes the West can make in working with former Soviet republics to fight organized crime is to fall into the trap of mirror- imaging.

  • Transnational Finnish Mobilities: Proceedings of Finnforum XI
    Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen (Eds.) Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen This volume is based on a selection of papers presented at Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen (Eds.) the conference FinnForum XI: Transnational Finnish Mobili- ties, held in Turku, Finland, in 2016. The twelve chapters dis- cuss two key issues of our time, mobility and transnational- ism, from the perspective of Finnish migration. The volume is divided into four sections. Part I, Mobile Pasts, Finland and Beyond, brings forth how Finland’s past – often imagined TRANSNATIONAL as more sedentary than today’s mobile world – was molded by various short and long-distance mobilities that occurred FINNISH MOBILITIES: both voluntarily and involuntarily. In Part II, Transnational Influences across the Atlantic, the focus is on sociocultural PROCEEDINGS OF transnationalism of Finnish migrants in the early 20th cen- tury United States. Taken together, Parts I and II show how FINNFORUM XI mobility and transnationalism are not unique features of our FINNISH MOBILITIES TRANSNATIONAL time, as scholars tend to portray them. Even before modern communication technologies and modes of transportation, migrants moved back and forth and nurtured transnational ties in various ways. Part III, Making of Contemporary Finn- ish America, examines how Finnishness is understood and maintained in North America today, focusing on the con- cepts of symbolic ethnicity and virtual villages. Part IV, Con- temporary Finnish Mobilities, centers on Finns’ present-day emigration patterns, repatriation experiences, and citizen- ship practices, illustrating how, globally speaking, Finns are privileged in their ability to be mobile and exercise transna- tionalism. Not only is the ability to move spread very uneven- ly, so is the capability to upkeep transnational connections, be they sociocultural, economic, political, or purely symbol- ic.
