Sakharov defies warning with news conference in Moscow
Nuclear physicist Andrei Sakharov announced to foreign reporters at his Moscow home that the Soviet system is undemocratic and dangerous. He urged U.S. Congress to pass the Jackson amendment and pressed for Western-Soviet rapprochement tied to democratization. He warned that easing tensions without reform could lead to a closed, armed dictatorship and global instability.
