Andropov to Central Committee, February 27, 1975
Invitations to Elena Bonner for medical treatment in Europe
E. G. Bonner, the wife of Academician Sakharov, continues to receive various kinds of invitations from foreign citizens to go abroad for medical consultations and treatment. For example, in January 1975, Nisei, an employee of an eye clinic in Bern (Switzerland), wrote to Bonner: “Dear Mrs. Sakharov: Mr. Foss has asked me to invite you for a consultation in connection with your eye disease and, if necessary, to admit you to our clinic for an operation. Please come for an examination on February 14, 1975.””
At the beginning of February, the Swiss ambassador in the USSR, R. Fessler, sent Bonner a letter in which he wrote the following: “According to the Evangelical-Reform State Church of the Canton of Zurich, you have been invited for medical treatment in Switzerland. The Embassy therefore has the right to issue you an entry visa. Please send us your passport and complete the enclosed application.””
The heightened activity surrounding Bonner's trip abroad shows that certain circles in the West are hoping thereby to rekindle interest in the “onerous” situation of Bonner and Sakharov and to exploit this circumstance in the next wave of propaganda. At the same time, an attempt is also apparently being made to sound out the attitude of competent Soviet organs toward Sakharov and our reaction to his public statements.
Taking into account the fact that Bonner has applied for an exit visa to Italy in November 1974 and that her trip abroad is undesirable, the Committee for State Security deems it appropriate to inform Bonner (through the Office of Visas and Registrations) that her request for an exist visa is denied. The Office of Visas and Registrations will also explain that she can invite a foreign specialist to come to the USSR for a consultation….
