Soviet-born Jew advocates emigration as a response to regime
Leonid Rigerman, who became an American citizen in December, says Soviet permission for some Jews to leave shows a weakening regime. He and his mother, Esther, arrived in New York after his news conference at Lincoln Center, urging that many Jews would leave if it were secure to apply. He opposes violent acts by the Jewish Defense League and notes emigration remains the only live movement for Jews in Russia.
