Despite progress on most of the issues discussed at the Reagan-Gorbachev summit and the signing of a land- mark I.N.F. treaty, the Soviet leader resisted administra- tion pressure on the human rights agenda. In an official statement, Morris Abram, president of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish organizations and of the Na- tional Conference on Soviet Jewry (NCSJ), expressed some of the frustration that pervades the movement. "We are deeply concerned by reports that Mr. Gorbachev is tired of hearing about human rights and Jewish emigra- tion," Abram said. "Mr. Gor- bachev is reported to have said to the press, 'you are not the prosecutor and I am not the accused.' Mr. Gorbachev • has it wrong; the Soviet Union gave the international community the right to judge its compliance with its inter- national human rights agree- ments. Mr. Gorbachev must know that only a policy of adherence to these human rights agreements will lead to true normalization of rela- tions." The problem of a post- Summit letdown has been intensified by the rumors cir- culating in Washington dur- ing the historic meetings. "There's no doubt many peo- ple were expecting something pretty dramatic to happen," said a Soviet Jewry expert on the Hill. "A lot of us were sur- prised at just how resistant Mr. Gorbachev proved to be — and at how this resistance was generally overlooked by the media here." Mark Levin, Washington representative for the NCSJ, expressed satisfaction that the Mobilization was suc- cessful. "We didn't expect a significant breakthrough," Levin said. "But the issue was raised at every level, and the reaction from the General Secretary was what we ex- pected; whenever human rights were brought up, it made him angry. I'm glad he Mikhail Gorbachev and Ronald Reagan sign the INF treaty in Washington Dec. 8. got angry; Gorbachev has to know now that this is an issue he can't put aside or res- pond to with pro-forma answers. The fact that he reacted emotionally means that there WAS an impact." Levin's sentiments were echoed by David Harris of the American Jewish Committee, who coordinated the enor- mous gathering on the day before Gorbachev's arrival. "Certainly there is some disappointment," he said. "At the same time, I think most observers recognize that there are no quick-fix solutions. The process is an incremental one." According to Harris, some progress was made in dealing with the cases of individual refuseniks, and on clarifying bilateral mechanisms for reviewing cases. "But on the underlying questions of pro- cess and procedure, the things that might lead to substantial and sustained emigration, Gorbachev's hostility showed in abundance." Despite the success of the Mobilization, Harris insisted that the Summit was a "sobering reminder of the limits of Glasnost and the dangers of wholesale infatua- tion with the new Soviet leadership?' Micah Naftalin, Washing- ton representative of the Union of Councils for Soviet Jews, suggested that the Ad- ministration was never pre- pared to engage in hard bargaining on the issue of Soviet Jewry. "What we're saying is that there's a big dif- ference between raising the issue, which they did wonder- fully, and negotiating, which they didn't do at all. The message that the Soviets got was this: despite the rhetoric - about human rights, the United States government doesn't really mean it." As proof, Naftalin cited the controversial meeting be- tween a group of U.S. business leaders and Soviet officials, a meeting organized by Secretary of Commerce William Verity. "That meeting took place in the absence of any linkage to the human rights issue," he said. He also revealed that as a result of protests, represen- tatives of the Union of Coun- cils have been invited to brief Verity before the secretary's planned trip to Moscow in March. According to Naftalin, the group will use that brief- ing to urge a tougher ap- proach to the linkage between trade concessions and human rights improvements. He also suggested that the Union of Councils would modify its approach in deal- ing with Soviet human rights abuses. "The Administration is not yet convinced that they have to start bargaining. So we're moving in on issues that don't require their ac- tion. The untied loans issue — the billions of dollars from private banks going to the Soviet Union — will become the Jackson-Vanik of the next decade. We can go at this in a variety of ways to make it intolerable for the banks to give this money to the Soviets."
