Summary
Makes it the sense of Congress that the President of the United States of America shall take immediate and determined steps to: (1) call upon the Government of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics to permit the concrete resurrection of both the Ukrainian Orthodox and Catholic Churches in the largest non-Russian nation both within the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and in Eastern Europe; and (2) utilize formal and informal contracts with Union of Soviet Socialist Republics officials in an effort to secure the freedom of religious worship in places of both churches that their own constitution provides for; and (3) raise in the General Assembly of the United Nations the issue of Stalin's liquidation of the two churches and its perpetuated effect on the posture of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics in the light of the United Nations Charter and the Declaration of Human Rights.
