It was formed Jackson-Vanik Graduation Coalition in USA which consists of public organizations and private companies.
25.12.2005 It was formed Jackson-Vanik Graduation Coalition in USA which consists of public organizations and private companies, On December 23 the Coalition published their statement about situation in Ukraine and dependence of graduation from Jackson-Vanik amendment and antisemitic situation.
The Co-Chairs of the Jackson-Vanik Graduation Coalition, Ambassadors Steven Pifer and William Green Miller, criticized the December 20, 2005, statement by the press service of Ukraine’s Inter-Regional Academy of Personnel Management (MAUP), as published on MAUP’s web-site. That statement is factually wrong on several counts.
First, the MAUP press statement claims that there is no connection between recent statements by MAUP and efforts in the U.S. House of Representatives to pass legislation to graduate Ukraine from the Jackson-Vanik Amendment. Coalition representatives, however, in recent contacts with Congress have heard considerable concern about the anti-Semitic nature of MAUP statements, in particular those statements expressing MAUP’s support for the Iranian president following his outrageous remarks regarding Israel. There can be no place for anti-Semitism in a modern European democracy.
Second, the MAUP press statement attributes several quotes to Mark Levin, Director of the National Conference of Soviet Jewry (NCSJ). Mr. Levin, a very active and supportive member of the Jackson-Vanik Graduation Coalition, has never made such comments. Indeed, he is extremely concerned that recent MAUP statements will weaken support for Jackson-Vanik graduation among those Jewish-American organizations that make up the NCSJ.
Third, the MAUP press statement falsely suggests that Ihor Gawdiak, President of the Ukrainian American Coordinating Council, is an opponent of graduating Ukraine from Jackson-Vanik. To the contrary, Mr. Gawdiak has long supported graduating Ukraine from Jackson-Vanik and has been closely involved with the Jackson-Vanik Graduation Coalition since it’s founding. Mr. Gawdiak has criticized earlier MAUP statements precisely because of his outrage at the nature of those statements and because they could delay Jackson-Vanik graduation for Ukraine.
