Human Rights Conference, Moscow

HC Deb 12 January 1989 vol 144 c721W

Mr. Atkinson

To ask the Prime Minister if she will make a further statement on the Soviet Union's proposal to hold an international conference on human rights in Moscow.

The Prime Minister

We have agreed in principle that the third stage of the CSCE conference on the human dimension should be held in Moscow. But our attendance depends upon the Soviet Union making further specific major human rights improvements between now and 1991.
