- Share via
Two American women were reunited with their Soviet husbands after years of separation when the two men, along with a Soviet-American couple reunited in West Germany on Sunday, arrived at Newark, N.J., International Airport. The Kremlin promised before the Geneva summit to allow 10 couples to reunite in the West. But Sandra Gubin, 38, of Kalamazoo, Mich., who was again with her husband, Alexei Lodisev, 34, after 4 1/2 years, said there are at least 20 other couples being kept apart. Also reunited were Robin Rubendunst, 25, of New York City, and her husband, Leonid Ablavsky, 38.
