Three panels were also held during the two days of the Congress: A youth panel entitled “The ideas by which the young generation is inspired today — in the Free World and behind the Iron Curtain”, with panelists representing the USA, Canada, Europe, Rumania, Ukraine, Afghanistan, Cuba and Vietnam; a panel on “National liberation processes behind the Iron Curtain”, with pa nelists representing Albania, Bulgaria, China, Cuba, Hungary, Poland and Ukraine; and a panel on the “Armed struggle of the subjugated nations for their survival”, with panelists representing Afghanistan, Vietnam and Nica ragua. In the evening of Saturday, May 18 a banquet was held which opened with the reading of greetings from President Ronald Reagan and Vice-President George Bush. The main address was delivered by the Hon. Yaroslav Stetsko — former Prime Minister of Ukraine and ABN President. Guest speakers were US Congressman Mario Biaggi, Mr. Wayne Merry — US representative to the UN, Advisor Political and Security Affairs, and Mr. John Nikas — representa tive of Governor Mario Cuomo and chairman of ethnic groups, State Legislature. The banquet program also included the reading of the New York State Senate Resolution and greetings from Senators and Congressmen. Dr. B. A. Zikria, who had just returned from Peshawar, Pakistan, greeted the banquet partici pants on behalf of the Afghan mujahideen. The banquet included cultural entertainment. The Congress ended on Sunday, May 19 with the election of the governing bodies and passing of the Statement and Resolutions. 1 Telegram from President Ronald Reagan to the AF ABN Congress I am very happy to extend warm greetings to the American Friends o f the Anti-Bolshevik Bloc o f Nations as you gather fo r your Congress in N ew Y ork.

One day that flam e w ill burn brightly again fo r all nations and individuals. My warm est g ood wishes to everyone present as you convene this im portant conference. Sincerely, Edward I. Koch, Mayor The C ity o f N ew Y ork Greetings Telegram from Archbishop Constantine (Ukrainian Orthodox Church) to the AF ABN Congress My dear friends, I greet you as you m eet to discuss your current activities an d form ulate future plans. 1 pray that Alm ighty G od, w ho know s all, will bless you r con tinued efforts to expose to the w orld the horror story o f the B olshevik occupa tion o f so many o f your hom elands. May those efforts bear much fru it in the attention given them by the nations o f the Free World. Yours sincerely, Archbishop Constantine, U krainian O rthodox Church May Almighty God help us cast off the terrible yoke of colonialism F or many years now I have been w ell aw are o f the w ork o f the A BN , to which all the subjugated nations, including the Ukrainian nation, contribute, sharing the same cause and standing up in firm and organized unison against godless Bolshevism, which has held freedom -loving nations captive in the most appalling w ay fo r over 60 years, a fter having forcibly occupied them through invasion or by means o f deceitful propaganda. The A BN continues to courageously resist all communist encroachments on these nations, not only by active resistance, but also on an international level, by inform ing the free, dem ocratic states about the horrific situation o f these unyielding nations. I pray that Alm ighty G od m ay help us cast o f f this terrible y o k e o f colo nialism and that our nation m ay soon be able to enjoy freedom , surrounded by free peoples, and this, I strongly believe, w ill soon com e about. I deeply regret that I will not be able to attend your Congress in person, as I shall be away from my diocese on another important matter. I wish you much success in you r future w ork and pray to G od to render his protection over you and all o f our peoples. May peace and the love o f Christ be with you. I remain, Yours sincerely, t Wasyl, Bishop of Stamford Ukrainian C atholic Church 3 Strength in Ourselves to Continue the Struggle T hank you fo r you r kind invitation to attend the Congress Banquet o f the American Friends o f A nti-Bolshevik Bloc o f Nations. It is with much regret, because o f a long standing prior com m itm ent, that I am unable to attend. The struggle against communism has been long and difficult. Still, under standing the ugliness o f oppression and totalitarianism, we fin d in ourselves an aw esom e strength to continue that struggle. We w ho are able to enjoy our lives in freedom and in liberty fe e l fo r our fellow men and w om en w ho must persevere against the brutal system they are trapped in. W ho am ong us know s better o f the torment o f these p eop le than those whose brothers and sisters endure in the darkness o f communism? W e in the United States and our friends in the Western w orld are keenly aw are o f “our strongest allies,” as w e join together, unswervingly, in the struggle fo r freed om everyw here in the w orld. I kn ow o f the contributions o f your organization in the pursuit o f freedom fo r the subjugated nations o f the w orld, and as a United States Senator and Chairm an o f the H elsinki Commission, my devotion to the cause o f liberty and human rights is resolute. Again, thank you fo r your invitation, as I extend my best wishes fo r an enjoyable banquet, and much success to the American Friends o f A nti-Bolshevik Bloc o f Nations. Sincerely, Alfonse M. D’Amato United States Senator Honorable Mario Biaggi, US Congressman, addressing the AF ABN Congress, May 18, 1985 4 Y aroslav Stetsko To Strengthen the Light of Freedom It is indeed a great honor and pleasure to greet the AF ABN Congress on the occasion of its 35th anniversary, in the name of the Central Committee of the Anti-Bolshevik Bloc of Nations. The AF ABN has continually done its utmost to aid the liberation struggles of the nations suffering under the brutal regimes of Russian imperialism and communism. The AF ABN has a particularly significant role in the entire ABN complex of member organizations. The AF ABN functions within the context of Ameri can liberty. It stands firmly supporting the torch of freedom held in the hand of the Statue of Liberty. It shines with the light of that torch, the light that gives hope to the millions awaiting that spark in their own lands. Today, we see a world in crisis. Hunger, genocide, imperialism flourish throughout the globe, the shadow of nuclear missiles looms over the heads of the peoples of the world, while the leaders of the free world desperately search for an answer to the civilization-threatening crisis. Policies of co-exist ence, of detente, of the balance of power, of mutually assured destruction are ineffectual graspings of straws. It has become clear to all individuals who confront this problem, that such policies do not eliminate the threat. Un fortunately, many of free world leaders have come to believe that only a miracle can save the world from destruction. If it is only a miracle that can assure the world’s survival, it is a miracle which mortals can create. It is the miracle of freedom. The role of the AF ABN is to strengthen that light of freedom by enlight ening the American public to the liberation concept of the ABN. It is only through the process of liberation of the subjugated nations that the world will be freed from the threat of a nuclear wasteland. The miracle of freedom is the ideal that inspires the political mobilizations of the oppressed nations. It is their liberation struggles which will tear apart the seams of Russian imperialism and communist domination. The subjugated nations will, by freeing themselves, free the world. The threat will be eliminated. The ABN asks the free world for its friendship, its political support and under standing that the concept of the ABN is the “miracle” which will free them. Amd he who helps us, helps himself. If the Free World will not help the sub jugated nations, then the least it can do is not help our enemies. I would like to take this opportunity, on the occasion of the 35th anniversary of the AF ABN to honor the Co-Founder of this organization, a great idealist who has departed from us, Dr. Nestor Procyk. May the great work which he began, continue to flourish. “We must recognize that the Free W orld’s most reliable allies are the enslaved peoples within the Russian Communist em pire. The real Achilles’ heel o f the w hole Soviet Russian system is the unrest an d disaffection o f the peoples within the Soviet Russian em pire.” Major General John K. Singlaub 5 Greetings to the AF ABN Congress, May 18,1985, New York As a representative o f the N ew Y ork State Legislature, I understand the im portance o f maintaining public concern fo r the fate o f subjugated East European nations and their peoples. Please extend m y warm est greetings to the members and delegates o f the Congress o f American Friends o f the A nti-Bolshevik Bloc o f N ations on b eh a lf o f my concerned constituents w ho reside in the 119th Assembly District which I represent. Y our m embers w ho reside in Central N ew Y ork, have p lay ed a leading role in fostering the kn ow ledge o f the inherent evils o f Communism and the danger that the USSR presents to w orld peace and basic universal human freedom s. W ith all best wishes fo r a successful conference. Sincerely, William E. Bush M ember o f Assembly, State o f N ew Y ork, A lbany, 119th Assembly D istrict Please express to the m embers o f the American Friends o f A nti-Bolshevik Bloc o f Nations, Inc. my best wishes fo r a productive and successful N ational Congress. As a representative in the N ew Y o rk State Legislature o f a large U krain ian community, as w ell as many p eop le with origins in other subjugated East European nations, I fully understand the im portance o f maintaining public concern fo r the fate o f these nations and their peoples. The continuing terrible events in Poland, an d the Soviets’ continuing efforts to conquer a free A f ghanistan, clearly dem onstrate the value o f this w ork, and this N ational Congress. In the past, I have continually supported efforts by the Ukrainian com munity, and other East European communities to keep alive the prom ise o f freedom fo r those now living in the Russian Em pire’s captive nations. Y ou can be assured o f m y continued support, and the support o f all Central N ew Y orkers, w ho are extrem ely proud o f these efforts on beh alf o f freedom . K indest personal regards. Sincerely, Tarky Lombardi, Jr., State Senator State o f N ew Y ork Thank you fo r the invitation to attend the AF ABN Congress. U nfortunately a previous engagement prevents m e from joining you.
