HC Deb 28 July 1989 vol 157 c1166W
Mr. Steen

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will raise with the Soviet authorities the case of Vladimir Raiz of Vilnius who is still awaiting an exit visa.

Mr. Waldegrave

We have pressed the Soviet authorities about this case on a number of occasions—most recently when I saw the Soviet ambassador on 25 July. We will not let up until the Soviet Government have resolved it satisfactorily in line with their international commitments.
