Former Prisoner-of-Zion Zachar Zunshain, who arrived in Israel from the Soviet Union recently, has denied rumors that he is settling in the U.S. and does not intend to return to Israel. Zunshain is quoted as saying that he intends to study political science for two years in Ohio, and added; “I don’t know what will happen in two years, but it is not correct that I leave Israel in anger, and that I do not intend to return. It is very possible that after the end of my studies in Ohio I will return to Israel,” he said.
