Clinton's condolences


Mrs. Atena Vasylivna Pashko
City of Kyiv

Dear Atena Vasylivna:

It was with great sorrow that I learned of the tragic death of your husband, Vyacheslav Chornovil. He elicited our greatest respect for his courageous defense of human rights and the hardships he endured during the Soviet period.

Mr. Chornovil was also much admired for his devotion to the task of building a democratic Ukraine. He will be well and long remembered for his contributions to his people and to the cause of freedom in Ukraine. Please accept my sincere condolences.

William J. Clinton
