Stressing that there is no
"formal agreement" between
the United States and the
Soviet Union on the emigra-
tion issue, Kissinger said: "I
must state flatly that if I
were to assert here that a
formal agreement on emigra-
tion from the USSR exists
between our governments,
that statement would imme-
diately be repudiated by the
Soviet. government."
Kissinger also stressed that
he could not give "any as-
surance concerning the pre-
cise emigration rate that may
result" if the trade bill is
passed and most-favored-
nation treatment is extended
to the Soviet Union.
He also stressed that the
Soviet explanations applied
to the "definition of criteria
and did , not represent a com-
mitment as to numbers" on
emigrants.
He said "the Soviet gov-
ernment could not be held
accountable for or bound by
any siich figure." When the
Jackson-Kissinger correspon-
dence was disclosed, Sen.
Jaikson had estimated that,
on the basis of applications
sent to prospective emigrants,
a "benchmark" figure of
60,000 emigrants annually
would be expected.
Kissinger said Tuesday
"We have every right to ex-
pect" as he noted his letter
to Sen. Jackson had indicated
"that the emigration rate will
correspond to the number of
applicants and there will be
no interference with applica-
tions.
"If some of - the current es-
timates about potential ap-
plicants are correct, then this
should lead to an increase
in emigration." - -
Emigration in 1973 was
33,500 but -this 'year, Kis-
singer said, it had declined
by 40 per cent. He said the
reason for the decline was
in the realm of speculation.
