Abstract

The problem of the Jews in the Soviet Union is one of the most important issues that dominates our life today. It is not my intention to deal with the numerous aspects of this problem nor to describe the history of the struggle of Soviet Jewry. I shall deal only with some of the legal considerations concerning this issue and more specifically with four of them:1. Is Israel entitled, from the point of view of International Law, to raise the issue of Soviet Jews in International Organizations in general? Is it not a violation of the Charter of the U.N. and an intervention in the domestic affairs of a Sovereign State?2. Does public protest help in the defence of the rights of the Jews in the Soviet Union?3. Does the Soviet Union violate Soviet law or any international obligation in discriminating against Soviet Jews?4. According to International Law, is Israel entitled to grant Israeli nationality to Jews living in the Soviet Union?
