    Message to the Congress on Trade With Russia
    June 30, 1995

    To the Congress of the United States:
        On September 21, 1994, I determined and reported to the Congress
    that the Russian Federation is in full compliance with the freedom of
    emigration criteria of sections 402 and 409 of the Trade Act of 1974.
    This action allowed for the continuation of most-favored-nation (MFN)
    status for Russia and certain other activities without the requirement
    of a waiver.
        As required by law, I am submitting an updated Report to Congress
    concerning the emigration laws and policies of the Russian Federation.
    You will find that the report indicates continued Russian compliance
    with U.S. and international standards in the area of emigration.

                                                          William J. Clinton

    The White House,

    June 30, 1995.
