Kennedy Gorbachev talks trigger sharp human rights tensions
Senator Edward M Kennedy described a tense exchange with Mikhail Gorbachev over human rights during their Moscow talks. Kennedy said Gorbachev shifted to a heated tone on human rights, then altered to a calmer stance, while both discussed emigration and arms control progress. Kennedy cited a potential June Washington summit and said 25 Soviet citizens would be allowed to emigrate, with six already leaving as a gesture of good faith.
