Summary

Declares that the Senate: (1) condemns the Soviet Union for the arrest and indictment of U.S. foreign correspondent Nicholas Daniloff and demands his immediate and unconditional release; (2) expresses its concern that the Soviet Union's failure to resolve this matter threatens to undermine U.S.-Soviet relations and jeopardizes the summit meeting between President Reagan and General Secretary Gorbachev; and (3) urges that all news gathering organizations that provide support to Soviet news organizations should consider appropriate actions to demand Daniloff's release.
