The United States rejects Soviet protests that two Russians who defected in Alaska are being prevented from returning. State Department official Joseph Reap says the U.S. would allow asylum requests and notes Soviet embassy contacts and meetings with the men. The men, Gregory Sarapushkin and Peter Kalistienko, landed Aug. 7 near Wales, Alaska, and later chose not to return to the Soviet Union.
