Summary of the meeting.
Briefing for mass media.

For information: during the third week of July, the civilized world celebrates the “Captive Nations Week”. The “Week” was first organized in the USA in 1953, and in 1959 it was given official status with the adoption of a resolution of the US Congress, the author of which was the president of the Ukrainian Congress Committee, Lev Dobryanskyi. On July 17, 1959, President Eisenhower signed the resolution into law. According to this law, the President of the United States was authorized to proclaim “Captive Nations Week” annually, until all of them found freedom and independence.
