Status: O
Dear IR-folks,
The summer is getting hotter, the IR-net cooler, and I am getting out
for a while ("slinyal", as they called it in my time; also, in my ipostasi
as a sailor at Volga-river, "porabotal - i v shchel'"...). So, be
aware please that info-russ will be slow. If you have nothing REALLY
urgent to broadcast, better wait with you posting until the beginning
of August. I'll be looking into my mail more or less regularly from
a remote terminal, so if there is anything urgent, I'll be broadcasting
it, but please allow for a few days delay. Well, enjoy these "crazy,
lazy days of summer", be good boys & girls, don't apply for DOD grants
(let them better leave something for me:-), and generally, have a fun.
If you see Alejandro Nalpak, give him "nashe vam s kistochkoi" (on poimyot,
darom chto mexikanets, hotya kto ego znaet...) If you are slightly
nonlinear, don't forget to drop your CV into a mailbox. (If you are
too nonlinear, be careful: even a cubic Schreodinger collapses in 3D
if no saturation is present:-). Bye now,
--Alex Kaplan, INFO-RUSS owner/coordinator

Dear Info-Russians (especially those of you who deal with Physics
and Israel),
Some time ago I met with an interesting guy who recently came to
Israel from Erevan, Armenia as a tourist (actually as a refugee)
and decided to stay here. As I understood he has a Ph.D. in
Applied Physics and brought some interesting original work
(abstract is enclosed). In Israel he has no friends and knows
nothing about to whom and how to apply with his ideas and his
profession. Unfortunately, I'm what is called a "systems analyst
in information management" and by definition totally dumb in
everything and especially in Physics ;-(, so I'm also unable to
help him.
His name is Ilya Bagdasaryan, he is 30, mother tongues are
Armenian and Russian, knows English, currently studies Hebrew. If
somebody has any information, suggestions, hints, tips, names,
etc., or better, will find the following abstract to be of
interest, please try to help him! He provides an impression of
extremely bright and educated person and it will be a great pity
if such a guy who also suffered a lot will end up as a street
cleaner.
Since he currently has no permanent living place with telephone it
will be better to contact me directly via e-mail. Any help will be
gratefully appreciated.
Thanks in advance...

-------------------- The abstract goes here --------------------
"THE SIMPLE, CHEAP, LOWER POWER CAPACIOUS AND ECOLOGICAL WAY OF
INITIATING LIGHT NUCLEI'S FUSION IN A CONDENSED MATTER AND ITS
POSSIBLE APPLICATION IN GENERATING OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY AND
HYDROGEN"
It is proposed to carry out the key experiment in which a
dielectric liquid placed under special conditions is to result in
nuclear fusion reactions accompanied by high potential charging of
the medium and neutron emission. Based on this phenomenon the
qualitative project of the new power-plant and hydrogen generator
is elaborated. One needs to make quantitative elaboration of this
set-up and construct it's acting mock-up.

Hi "info-russ" folks of the whole world,
I am on the job market at this moment. Hopefully, I'll get more responses
from you, than from direct calling or mailing to "Fortune 500" corporate
America.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am looking for a job in Marketing// Marketing Research// Management
Control Systems// or Research Scientist positions related to Environmental
Management or Biotechnology areas.
I would not apply to your help, folks, if I hadn't had a very special to
business people scientific background. That is why I am on the air and
not in the classified section of a local newspaper.
I just graduated from the University of Washington, Seattle, WA with a
Master's degree in Business Administration, emphasizing Marketing.
Actually, the MBA was my 3rd degree -- I also have an M.S.(Chemistry), and
Ph.D. in Biochemistry. My experience includes 7 years of working in
Biochemistry and 4 years in Environmental Analytical Chemistry.
Specifically, I worked with HPLC, HRGC and HRGC/MS analytical technique
and my last article was published in Env. Sci.& Tech. 10(1992) while I was
already studied business at the U of W.
I would be happy to mail my resume to any interested party, either
by e-mail or regular mail.
Thanks a lot for your time, consideration, and any suggestions.
Best regards.
Vassily E. Ivanov
University of Washington
Seattle, WA

status etc. are available upon request.

Dear netters:
I have a friend (she is an American) who is interested in adopting a child
from Russia or other CIS countries. Most American organizations charge
overwhelming fees for such services. My question is: do you know any trustworthyRussian or American based organizations, societies, etc. that help in finding
and formal adopting children from Russia? Please send all relevant phones,
addresses, etc. to me. I appreciate your help! Thanks!

Dear Russ-netters,
I am seeking your advise in the following matter: I have received an offer
to go to work for a Belgian University for a year or two. I would greatly
appreciate any information regarding the cost of living in that country,
such as average rental cost, say for a 2 bedroom apt; health care costs;
level of taxation; cost of a new car, say Honda Accord or whatever the
correspondent model is. Generally, I would like to know what a salary of
2,500 U.S.$/month means for a family of 3 in a Belgium town.
I will be very much indebted for any relevant information and advise.
Please, answer to me directly at
maxim@panther.ipst.edu
Zaraneye Spasibo.
Makcum.

2. Does anybody have any experience or know about possibilities to adopt

3. Does anybody know whether the person just married to the American is

I would appreciate any useful information.

Dear InfoRusski and InfoRussy
of the Left (that is West) Coast:
And especially those of
Southern California:
Some time ago, the network coordinator Alex Kaplan had a
very successful meeting/party (just to meet and say 'Hi') of
InfoRussov in the Boston area. Living at the West Coast, the
Land of rugged individuals, we have a good excuse and
justification to trail behind the Easterners.
I volunteer to arrange (or more precisely, to coordinate) the
meeting of InfoRussok/Russov in the Greater Los Angeles
Area. It will be a no-host/no-guest gathering to meet your
fellow-networkers and affiliated persons (please feel free to
bring friends). No other agenda, program, responsibility or
obligations (sounds like liberal Left, :=) uh ? - I promise no
more political jokes). I will coordinate time and place (TBD =
To Be Determined, depending on number of those who show
interest to show up).
We will meet either on
1. Saturday (27 August) night, or
2. Sunday (28 August) during the day.
If the number of interested is small, then we will meet on
Saturday (27 August) night indoors (apartment in Santa
Monica).
If the number of interested happens to be large ('small' and
'large' still remains to be defined), then we will meet on Sunday
(28 August) outdoors. Two options for the outdoor meeting are
being currently considered:
a) parking/picnic area somewhere in local (to LA)
mountains (for example, San Gabriel) - it is about 1
hour drive from the downtown LA;
b) local beach (again within 1 hour drive from the
downtown LA).
Details of our meeting/party will be determined after your
response is received.
If you are interested to participate, please send me DIRECTLY
- mikeg@lism.usc.edu - (do not send to the InfoRuss,
pleeeeeeeeeeease) the following information:
1. Name
2. e-mail address
3. how many person are likely to attend (feel free to bring
friends; please indicate also whether participation is
"firm" or "possible").
Please do NOT send THIS TIME your suggestions/ideas on
how/where to have this meeting/party. When first responses
are received, I will send to those (ONLY) who responded the
follow-on e-mail message and we will work out details.
Regards,
Mike Gruntman

Status: Or
A couple of months ago I asked for help with a Russian client and
received a tremendous amount of help. Thanks again to all. Now I
have a similiar problem with a Kurd immigrant child and his parents.
He is suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. There are cultural
and language problems explaining to him and his parents that this is
something that can be helped in America with the right treatment -
the right medication and brief therapy. Any suggestions or help
translating the following message would be appreciated.
Your son appears to be suffering from post-traumatic-stress-disorder.
This is like depression and means that he has seen more than he can
easily deal with. This can be helped if he takes the medication
the way the directions say and comes to talk to me about it for
a few times.
Thanks in advance. Thomas Bell, Psy.D.

is founded by DFG for a period of two years (with possible
extension of one year) and will be supervised by L.
Schimansky-Geier and T. Poeschel at the Institute of
Physics at Humboldt-University in Berlin. The project
will start as soon as possible.
The project involves the development of stochastic
approaches for the description of inhomogeneous flows of
granular material in thin pipes. Applicants should have
mainly experience with stochastical physics of open systems
and should be able to work with Unix-Workstations.
Applications should be sent by August 20, 1994 to email

A small fund of private money has become available for outstanding
graduates of Russian universities to facilitate their admission to the graduate
school of the Department of Physics of SUNY at Stony Brook. Applicants with
appropriate credentials may have their TOEFL and GRE examination fees, as well
as the SUNY admission fee (presently, $50) paid by the fund. In the case of
successful admission to the school, the student may also apply to the fund for
an interest-free loan for the overseas trip to the US. Interested persons may
contact me by phone (516-632-8159), fax (516-632-8774), or e-mail
(klikharev@ccmail.sunysb.edu).
NOTICE: The fund does not replace (or interfere with) the regular
admission process. Its only goal is to remove financial barriers faced by
applicants from Russia. The fund reserves its right to reject any request for
assistance, on the basis of its own set of criteria (these criteria do not
include nationality, sex, religious or political affiliation of the applicants).
Use of the assistance does not impose any restrictions on the further
development of the recipient's career at SUNY or beyond.

Subject:INFO-RUSS: info-russ is back
Status: O
Dear IR-folks,
Sorry for neglecting my duties as an "owner/coordinator". I've again
been away from the campus for couple weeks, and did not have remote
access to my computer (my acquaintances both in Israel and France
were not highly advanced computer hacks, mind you). I've got some
IR-msgs accumulated during that period, and will be broadcasting them
within next 24 hours. My special apologies to the people who tried
to subscribe in my absence, and got no reply. Well, nobody is perfect,
especially newsgroup coordinators, so you guys should take it as is, sigh.
This summer was sort of slow moving (poor media has found nothing
better than Simpson's case to hang on); as far as info-russ, there
was some mishap (one msg got rebroadcasted a few times); what happened
was that we were updating our system, and my mailer got mad at something,
and kept chewing that msg; on August 15 there was a (quiet this time)
birthday of info-russ (which is 3 years old now), with the number of
subscribers hovering around 1000; the Russians keep selling uranium
to any interested party; the Israeli have finaly decided to dump their
headaches with providing civil services on the territories to the
Palestinians, with the Palestinians suddenly realizing what they are
stepping into: the Americans (us!) have stopped Cubans from having a
little fun with no-visa free entrance to Miami beaches (hey, who is
next? Russians? you guys without valid entrance visa, you better harry
up!); the North Koreans decided to postpone nuking their near
neighbors; what else? Well, enough for now.
OK, info-russ is back, and so are my headaches. (Anybody willing
to pick them up?:-) Anyway, see you around, guys. Best,
--Alex Kaplan, INFO-RUSS owner/coordinator

Hello,
Some of you probably heard that US consulate in
St. Petersburg was closed for repairment works.
I was wondering if anyone had information on
how this affected situation with US embassy in Moscow.
Is it still possible to get to the embassy the same day,
do you need to sign up by phone etc.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Shalom, and "Shana Tova u metuka" to you, if you understand the meaning of
it, or even if you don't. In plain Russian:-): a happy New Year (why, Jewish
style) to all of you. In good old times, everybody would get together in
Arhipov pereulok (do I remember the name of that steep little side street
near Staraya Ploschad' correctly?) and sing and dance and drink vodka and
have good time regardles of "fifth paragraph" (and why not? back there they
would drink on any occasion... Esli ya chego reshil, to vypyu obyazatel'no,
right?). Have to confess though (nashel vremya i mesto...) that I always
hated vodka... Well, anyway, best wishes for the Year 5755!

Hi folks,
Could anybody remind me lyrics of the "Madagaskar" song by
Juriy Vizbor? Any KSP people on the net? I just remember
the first part:
Juzhnyi krest, juzhnyi krest, juzhnyi krest zalez na nebo,
I spryatalis' v doline oblaka,
Ostorozhnej, drug, ved' nikto iz nas zdes' ne byl,
V tainstvennoj strane Madagaskar.
Does anyone know the full text? Any help will be appreciated.

Dear netters,
I and my wife are going to visit Europe in the first time.
And, of course, we are very interested in the cheaperst
hotels/youth hotels/campings and so on. Since we'll have a car
during the trip it make us more able for movement.
The supposed path is Stutgard - Heidelberg - Frankfurt - Koln -
Dusseldorf - Amsterdam - Antwerpen - Brussel - Pariz - Luksemburg - Koln.
Can you suggest any reasonable place for overnight stop ?
Also, if somebody will be so kind to let us have such place
in his own appartment/student dormitory (just for sleeping, nothing else)
we are glad to suggest him our corresponding service in Israel.
Any advises about the places which are recommended for visit during the path
will be greatly appreciated.
We leave Israel 10 of September, so, please, answer directly
to me. Thanks in advance. Sincerely
Maxim.

COOPERATIVE NEUTRON SCATTERING PROGRAM
UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND /
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGY
INSTRUMENT RESPONSIBLE SCIENTIST
COLD NEUTRON RESEARCH FACILITY
We anticipate an opening in late 1994 for a 2-3 year term appointee
as Instrument Responsible Scientist at the Cold Neutron Research
Facility attached to the 20 MW Research Reactor at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology. We seek a scientist with
a recent Ph.D. in experimental Condensed Matter Physics, Materials
Physics, Materials Science, Chemistry, or a related discipline, with
experience in condensed matter spectroscopy, to share responsibilities
associated with the construction and operation of two neutron
time-of-flight instruments: an operational Fermi chopper
spectrometer, and a multi-disk chopper spectrometer that is
presently under construction. These responsibilities include
assisting visiting researchers in conducting experiments and
reducing data, instrument testing and calibration, developing and
documenting operating procedures, and planning and carrying out
instrument improvements. These duties are intended to occupy no
more than 75% of the instrument scientist's time, enabling him or
her to conduct independent or collaborative research using time-of-
flight instruments and other facilities at the CNRF and the NIST
Reactor.
Expressions of interest in this position should be sent
immediately to one of the following:

Dear IR-folks,
On this info-russ net, some of you, poor, poor folks, are sadly deprived
of favorite Russian intellectual pastime of what some of you call
"discussion" (Russian style:-: hitting each other over the head with
insults). One may say, oh well, there are other newsgroups where one
can do that; but than again, any internet veteran knows how most of them
ended up in flames of flame wars. The most recent victim of these
passions I believe was the list 'RUSSIA & her neighbors' (I guess, my good
friend and really nice guy John B. Harlan, who used to be owner/coordinator
of "RUSSIA", remains still puzzled over -- and smarting from -- qualities
of "Russian soul"). Talk about Russian penchant for "cultural delights".
Anyway, those of you who still feel a deep void in their soul, may be
interested to know about yet another discussion Russ-newsgroup recently
brought to my attention:
'Russian Club at MIT' (RAMIT-L@MITVMA.BITNET).
To subscribe to it send a message
SUB RAMIT-L [your name]
to
listserv@MITVMA.BITNET
Have a nice discussion.

Dear IR-folks,
I have two things to ask of you:
(i) I've lost contact with Mark Gaidouk (Gaiduk). He and his family
emigrated from Fryazino, near Moscow, to Germany, more than a year ago.
His address at the moment was Koln (Koeln?), 40, Germany; I've got a couple
letters from him then, but my replies to him have been returned back to me.
Does anybody know about him? If yes, can you get me in touch with him,
or at least get to me his new address and telephone?
(ii) My friend in Paris, France, is in urgent need for the PC program
"WinWord" (I hope I got the name right), which as I understand is a
text-formating package running under Microsoft "Windows" on any MS-DOS
PC. She needs to have it with English, French, and Russian fonts. She
is just barely trying to make her living by translating technical literature.
Can anyone who has the package, help her with it? The best thing would
have been if the package owner lives in Paris (or nearby) and can call her
on the phone. (I can provide a telephone number if you reply to this msg.)
My thanks in advance

Dear colleagues and friends!
Graz, Austria, September 1994
My name is Heinrich Pfandl, I am a 40-year-old professor of Russian at the
University of Graz, Austria. I am at present engaged in a three-year research
project on certain aspects of the life-style (language, culture) of Russian-
speaking people who left their home-countries from the 1970s to the present
day. That is why I am trying to establish contact to Russian-speaking people
who are living "abroad", in order to investigate some of the aspects of the so-
called "third wave" of Russian (Soviet) emigration.
As our E-mail net is providing me with the opportunity of reaching a great
number of Russian scholars, I would like to use this channel of asking you for
your assistance in my work. Let me entreat those of you who would be willing to
approach their family or friends with a questionnaire on the above topic or
even help them fill in the answers to the questions, to indicate their
willingness to help me by sending me a "REPLY" (e.g. by using the words "I
would like to help"). In case you prefer being sent the first questionnaire
also by facsimile, would you please indicate your fax-number.
Of course it would also be most interesting to have you complete a
questionnaire about your own person, if you should wish to do so; I can even
offer you a small sum of money for every questionnaire completed in recompense
for your effort (depending on the volume of the questionnaire; I'll tell you
more about this next time).
Let me thank you in advance for your kind co-operation. I should be most
grateful for your answer, I would highly appreciate your help.

Also I will appreciate any information on video-rental in Dallas - Huston

POWER OFFICIAL PULLS PLUG ON STRATEGIC MISSILES. The head of
Moscow's power directorate turned off the electric power at the
command center of the strategic rocket forces on 21 September,
because of unpaid bills. According to ITAR-TASS, this action
"created a threat to Russia's national security" that was only
averted when the men on duty managed to switch the system over to
its own power source. The Moscow official, Pavel Sinyuk, was
accused of violating a 1994 government decision forbidding such
action. The president of Mosenergo--the Moscow power
company--told Ostankino Television that the electricity was cut
off because the Moscow Military District owed over 50 billion
rubles. -- Doug Clarke, RFE/RL Inc.

YELTSIN INCREASES GORBACHEV'S PENSION. According to Russian TV's
"Vesti" of 22 September, Yeltsin has decreed a sharp increase in
former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev's monthly pension.
According to the decree, from now on Gorbachev will receive
retirement benefits equal to 40 minimum monthly salaries.
Hitherto, Gorbachev received the sum agreed upon by the leaders of
the new independent states on the eve of his resignation in
November 1991--i.e., 4,000 rubles ($1.63 at today's exchange rate)
a month. Despite Gorbachev's unpopularity in his native country,
such niggardly treatment of the Nobel peace prize winner had been
ridiculed in the media on more than one occasion. The reason for
Yeltsin's change of heart--perhaps Gorbachev's triumph during his
visit to Germany earlier this month or the approach of the Russian
presidential elections and the prospect that Yeltsin himself could
become a "former president" after 12 June 1996--remains a mystery.

Dear IR-folks,
My question is for those of you who temporarily reside in the US.
Has anyone ever flown from Canada to the US ? Do you remember
if you have been given a new I-94 form (Arrival/Departure Form -
that's what they stick into your passport when you go through
Immigration Control after an international flight) ???
Or maybe someone actually admitted being a non-US citizen while crossing
the border back into the US by car... Did you get a new I-94 form at that
point ?
Please reply directly to me. Thanks a lot. Sasha

Hello , IR-netters.
Recently while looking through some russian newspapers in one of
the "Izvestia" issues from mid-september I encountered a piece of
information that stated that foreigners who want to get propiska in
Moscow are required to pay 102 million rubles, starting October 1st.
If anyone has some information about it there are a few questions
that I would like to get answers for:
1. Does this apply only to foreigners who wish to reside in Moscow
permanently?
2. If yes then how long is considered permanently?
3. Does this apply to students who come to Moscow to study for
several months?
Thank you very much for your help.

Dear friends,
I will need to spend the next weekend in the Boston-Cambridge area with my
wife. An advise on an inexpensive hotel-motel would be appreciated.
I am a biologist (botanist) from MGU, currently am post-doking in the
Univ. of Waterloo, Canada. Coming to Harvard for a conference "Archeology
and Science", because I am doing a reconstruction of the Bronze Age
environment for an archeological project in Greece. Have fabulous slides,
and would be glad to show.
The conference will be at William James Hall, Harvard University,
Cambridge MA (wish I knew where it is!).
Best,

Greetings from Oregon!
I am interested in finding some good sources of current news and information
about Russia. I returned from a five week visit to Russia in early September
and I have not been able to find much information (outside of Associated
Press, etc.). I am in the process of arranging an emmigrant visa for my
fiancee and her son and would like to get as much information as possible on
the Russian experience of adjusting to America, on the visa process itself,
and any other useful information.
Does anyone know if the US Consulates in Russia have e-mail?
Please accept my request in good faith. I will reciprocate with any
information or efforts that I can.
Sincerely,
Dan McAdam
Salem, Oregon

I am a business student at the University of Alaska at Anchorage who
is studying The Russian language. I would very much like to attend a
University in St. Petersburg for a year beginning in the fall of '95.
I would take mostly language courses.
Unfortuately, U of Alaska has exchange programs only with a couple
schools in the Far East. Does anyone have any infomation/addresses
on applying directly to SPb State U or SPb Technical U or another
good school to attend to study Russian?
I would also be interested in general correspondence with anyone
from SPb.
Thanks A Lot!

Subject:INFO-RUSS: IR-list is coming...
Status: O
Dear IR-netties,
OK, it is again this time of a season: "updated-list-is-coming".
Why I keep broadcasting it? Well, at some point I came to realizing
that (aside from monitoring coups in Moscow:-) one of the major
significant things about info-russ is the list itself, long (now) and
boring as it is. People find each other through the list; if any of you
remember post-War "Joint" that helped people to find their relatives
across the borders, you may appreciate it. Anyway, here you are.
This INFO-RUSS net started on Aug. 15'91 with about 40 addresses.
I am going to broadcast a new (27-th) updated list of names&addresses
(900+ now) within next 24 hours. The last time I broadcasted it was
in the end of May. The number of subscribers sort of stabilized now,
although within last few weeks it suddenly went up (remember my theory
about this trend having something to do with inflation in Russia?:-).
As it became usual by now, I break the list into major domains of emigration:
AMERICA (US+Canada), ISRAEL, and EUROPE (including UK). As my courtesy:-) to
the "source" of emigration, I have an ex-USSR section. Finally, in order to
simplify your search for friends in far lands, I have also the "faraway"
sections for AUSTRALIA, South AFRICA, JAPAN, BRAZIL, MEXICO, and OTHERS.
How I make new sections out of OTHERS? Well, I use the old Russian police
rule:-): three persons constitute a crowd, so whenever I get 3 or more of
you in any god-forsaken:-) place, I open up a section for it. And those of
you who suspect that I simply help people "skinut'sya na troih", might be
right too:-). However, folks, if I get even ONE subscriber from Arctica
or Antarctica, I'll open a new section for such an exceptional emigre! I
have a name ready for it: "MISHKA na SEVERE, MASHKA na YUGE"! (Any of you
remember post-War ice-cream vendors at the rail-road stations all over
Russia?) And I will put the rest of you, unlucky guys, under one sub-title:
"Dan prikaz emu na zapad, ei v druguyu storonu...":-). And whenever the
push comes to shove, this owner/coordinator (reluctantly though) recalls
(as some of you learned from your own experience:-) the most universal and
unified Russian geo-location, which is always a walking distance away,
if you know what I mean:-).
Be aware, please, it is now 66+ kb long. The list must not
be used for commercial or any other unauthorized purposes.

I'm writing for some Russian Computer info. My church is trying to
start a Parish Partnership with a Russian Orthodox Church in St.
Petersburg.
To hold down expenses we thought it would be a good idea to communicate over
the internet. We have made a few assumptions, and I want to confirm that
they are correct assumptions before we get to far in the process. The
assumptions follow. Please write back to me directly to tell me if my
assumptions are correct, and enlighten me as to how to proceed from here.
1) We assume that an IBM clone will be better for the Russian church to
work with than a Mac.
2) We assume that an XT will do. We realize it may not be ideal, but
since all we want to do is communicate on the net we thought it would
suffice.
3) We assume it will be easier to get someone here in the states to
donate a used Xt and ship it to Russia than it would be to have our
Russian friends try to find the resources to buy a new or used computer.
4) We assume that the net is more cost effective than the phone.
Thanks for your replies in advance. Bob Simeone, in Seattle, Washington. BYE

it. If you've got an old IR-msg rebroadcasted again -- disregard it.
If you've got no trouble at all -- don't worry, you will get it in the

Hello,
I need an advise from someone currently enrolled
or graduated from an M.B.A. program here in the U.S.
I was thinking of applying for an M.B.A. either at
Indiana U. or at the U. of N. Carolina.
In your expereience, what are the average chances for an M.B.A.
(without a greencard) to find a job?
I recently graduated from a technical school with an M.S. in
Applied Optics, and I'm not sure if it's worth working for
couple of years to get a greencard, which will most likely
decrease my chances of getting financial aid as a foreign
student.
Any advise from you would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Peter Shmelev.

Hi, folks. Maybe someone could answer me the following question, or
suggest some other way of dealing with the problem:
Is there a way to read/print on a Macintosh a WinWord file
including a Russian (and non-rUssian) text, created with WinEast (software
which assigns the Russian alphabet to the second half of an extended
ASCII)?
The problem is that on a Mac, a Russian font is just another
font, i.e., coded with the first half of the ASCII table, and that the
cyrillic alphabet is generally treated in a completely different fashion on
a Mac or on a PC. I tried to
pass through a UNIX machine, thinking that maybe I could edit a binary
file obtained by KERMIT in binary mode, and systematically substitute
the octets corresponding to the alphanumeric characters shifting them
back to the first part of the table. (Hoping - I may be wrong - that in fact
a Word file consists of a text and invisible command symbols, which I would
leave unchanged). But so far I am lost between
binary, MacBinary and other stuff, and I could not even make my Mac
Word 6 read again a file which was created on a UNIX machine by
KERMIT in binary mode, and then sent back by KERMIT to the same Mac,
in the same mode. Could someone suggest me a protocole? Or could someone
tell me which kinds of software could at least be made to be compatible?
Sorry if a part of my questions are stupid, but I am a user, not a hack.
So whoever has an answer, please make it comprehensible to a physicist
capable of FORTRAN, C and awk programming.
Please send answers directly to: boris@deborah.saclay.cea.fr
Thanks a lot

Dear IR-friends,
If you don't know about that Tania in question and don't care
if she exists at all, be patient to the originator of the msg
below. He sounds young and desperate:-); anyway what the heck,
I decided to post his msg anyway. Other lost souls, be aware please
I am not wide-openning the IR-net for this kind of announcements.
Next time, when you like something about the lady you met on the
street (hope you don't need a list of the things you should pay
attention to:-), ask her for her phone number. If she refuses,
even IR-net cannot help:-). And don't forget, Chicago is full
of ladies that can easy fit into any refined list. Best,

Hi there!
I am trying to find the person who i met this Saturday at
"Cairo" in Chicago. Her first name is Tania and she is from
Moscow. She came over here three years ago and before that
used to live near Mosfilm. If any of you has any information
on this point or maybe you, Tania, are reading this message
please let me know.

Status: O
Russia + biking?
Five friends and I are planning a monster biking trip through
Asia beginning May '95. Turkey, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan,
Uzbekistan, Pakistan, India, China, Mongolia -
7000 miles, 130 days. None of us speak Russian, Chinese, etc,
and so we were hoping to get a "native" guide to translate
and help us get around. The plan is that a Russian would
ride with us from Istanbul to Katmandu, where a Chinese rider
would take over for the remainder. We would provide most gear
and whatever else was needed, keeping in mind that we want
an adventurous cycler type, not a professional tour guide.
So, the point is, I was wondering if anyone could give me any
leads as to where I might find such a person: a Russian biking
club phone number, or a cyclist you know from one of these
countries who might have contacts back there...
And of course, any advice is appreciated. Thanks for your help.

Dear netters!
A friend of mine who is working for the Russian Ministry of Science
and the Russian Academy of Sciences asked me to find out as much as
possible about contract studies, in particular about the legal
obligations of the parties, involved in the contract. What to do if the
contract is terminated, if the results of the study have nothing to do
with what was "ordered" initially, if one of the parties refuses to fulfill
its obligations etc. Any form of the contract is also of interest.
I received the industrial contract form and some comments from our office
here, at the U of Minnesota, and will appreciate very much if you can
provide me with the forms from your institutions and with any related
information. As I understood, the purpose of all this is to introduce
contract studies in Russian science.
Thanks in advance,

Subject: INFO-RUSS: Interesting information repository waits for You!
X-Charset: Cyrillic
Status: OS
Dear friends!
I have found the archive of information that could be interesting
practically to everybody. It is located at ftp.funet.fi in the
directory pub/culture/russian. Make anonymous ftp there and You'll
find hystory texts, polytical digests, law related issues, poems and
songs (even digital sound anthem of the x-USSR), advices on cyrillic
fonts and soft usage, and more.
If You have never tried ot use FTP, Your steps are:
1) from the command string type the command
ftp ftp.funet.fi
2) You will be asked (in a few seconds) for name. Type:
anonymous
3) You will be asked for a password. Type Your account at the host
where You reside. Usually it is Your e-mail address. For example,
kusha@wusha.ece.jhu.edu must type:
kusha@wusha.ece.jhu.edu
4) Then type:
cd pub/culture/russian
5) To list directory, type the command
dir
6) To navigate through the archive, use command cd :
cd humor
7) To step a layer back in the directory type
cd ..
8) To get text file type
ascii
get filename.extension
9) To get binary file type
binary
get filename.extension
10) To end the session type
quit
and You will finish.
Of course, "type" means to type the letters and press button.
Be aware that the texts (which in russian) are encoded using koi-8 table.
It is not a trouble since You can use special drivers to see the simbols
"as is".
BTW, i can send this directory contents to make the process of downloading
easy. Its size 95KB in ascii format.
Best regards,
Victor.

Dear netters,
Does anybody have a version of the translation into English of a certificate
about the graduation from University ('DIPLOM'), "vkladish s ocenkamy" and
the PhD certificate ('DIPLOM KANDIDATA ... NAYK')? I need them badly and here
in Holland there is a problem to find anything like this. I graduated from
Moscow State University, Chemistry Department (1981) and received my PhD also
there (1988).
I would appreciate your help!

Dear IR-friends!
Does anybody knows procedure (for J1 visiting research)
for moving from University to another emloyer (not University) ?
1) Is it necessary to have H1 BEFORE moving?
2) Or may be some kind of "Program Transfer" (because the same
subject of the investigations) ?
3) Any references on Government Bulletin?
I would appreciate very much any information regarding the problem.
Additional question: Couple months ago I had found in "Novoe Russ. Slovo"
ad that firm "Cnes Norayr" provides "International Certificate" PhD for
"kandidatov i doktorov nauk". It is not bad, but $400 ... I think that
there are another ways to have similar proof. Any advise?
Please reply:

Dear IR-netters,
I'm asking for your help and/or advice. My Mom is coming from Moscow to visit
me here, in Minneapolis. She arrives to Chicago Dec. 6 @4:30 p.m.
Unfortunately, because I have a broken leg, I cannot
drive to Chicago and pick her up. There is a cheap ($100) flight to
Minneapolis from another airport,but only on the next morning. Other tickets
are practically unaffordable ($350). I am worried how she
could spend a night in Chicago. The ideal
solution would be if somebody could accomodate her for a night. She
could take a parcel from Moscow for that person if needed. I realize that
may be it's too much to ask for, but as they say, who doesn't try, doesn't
succeed :-)
Alternatively, maybe somebody could give me the info on the cheap motels (?)
in the area which wouldn't be too difficult to get to from the airport.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you all for your time.

- Professional affiliation with wordwide network of 139000

- Year round employment exchange service
Could you, please inform me if they do this really or the journal

is it worth to be a member of the AAAS?

Dear IR-members,
Recently, I've bumped into two new magazines in Russian:
(may be not so new for you): "HKBD" and "Ctoliza i okrestnosti".
The first one I have not read yet - I guess, it's o politicheskom
proshlom, but the latter I found quite useful and entertaining.
It is mostly about Washington and vicinity, but can be of interest
to those of you who are sooner or later going to visit us. It has
also some information, interesting to the newcomers (about taxes,
buying a house, a car, matchmaking, what to buy in the pharmacy
etc) and some other articles, like psychotherapy, humor).

Subject: INFO-RUSS: Quit smoking?
Status: O
Folks, an Indian friend of mine is desperate to quit smoking. You know,
pressure of the environment, smoke-free towns and all this jazz. Anyway, he
heard somewhere about Russian psychotherapist (gipnotezer?) from NYC who
appearently is very good helping people to abondon another joy of life.
Just a couple of passes... Also, he thinks that this doctor is a real MD
and not just another amateur. If you have any idea what is it all about
could you please share it with us? Please reply to the address below so we
don't annoy innocent non-smoking IR-netters. Thank you

RFE/RL Daily Report No. 227, 2 December 1994
------------------------------------------------------------------
GORBACHEV TO BECOME RUSSIA'S FIRST POST-COMMUNIST POLITICAL
PRISONER? Citing "unofficial sources," the liberal Novaya
ezhednevnaya gazeta carried on its 25 November cover page an
article claiming that the Russian prosecutors are "cooking up" a
political case against former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev.
According to the daily, the inquiry underway in Moscow has been
based on Gorbachev's address to the founding congress of the
Russian Social-Democratic Union on November 1, in which Gorbachev
had criticized the Yeltsin leadership and called for the early
elections of all branches of the Russian government. Gorbachev's
address allegedly has prompted the "Gorbophobic" Russian
authorities to start an inquiry, aimed at charging Gorbachev under
the infamous Article 70 of the Russian Criminal Code. This law
gained the world-wide notoriety under its former title
"Anti-Soviet Agitation and Propaganda" in the 1960s to early
1980s, until the Gorbachev leadership stopped arrests of political
dissidents in that country. -- Julia Wishnevsky, RFE/RL, Inc.

Hi, everybody,
We are really in trouble and hope somebody has the experiense that we don't.
The situation is as follows: our young friend (26 years old) in Moscow has
won The Green Card Lottery-95. He's got all the papers ready for Visa
application, submitted them to Visa-center and is now waiting for interview
to be schedueled in Moscow. Meantime he's got a message that he is requested
for military service (as a graduate of technical university, he hasn't serve).
He left from his current address and didn't show up at the "voenkomat".
The question: if he is lucky enough to succeed at the interview, can he
leave for the USA without making arrangements with OVIR for departure for
permanent residense? or he would be stopped at the airport? Could it be
of any help if he departs from, say, Kiev? What other options does he has?
We'll be thankfull for any advice, it's very important for all our family.
Thanks.

To all:
I will be going to Moscow in Feb., 1995 to begin work on a Training Needs
Analysis for
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) training. I do have training and needs
analysis experience but not for such a large program.
Our company has been hired to do a feasibility study on helping the Russian
Federation set up their own GIS. A large part of that study is training and I
will
help the Russians conduct a training needs analysis for the people who will
be invlolved with GIS. These will probably be university personnel as well
as government geographers, cartographers, etc.
I do have a starting point from the proposal we wrote to the Russians. At
that time we planned to use focus groups with subject matter experts,
surveys, and some other
needs analysis techniques from the Instructional Systems Design training
model.
I would like to correspond with anyone about learning styles and teaching
methods in Russia. I am not very familiar with the Russian education
system or with the state of Adult Education and Job Training there. I want to
be able to help design the best training program possible
for the Russian professionals and therefore I want to have the input of
native Russian people. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance and you can reply to me at

THE "Good Times" VIRUS IS AN URBAN LEGEND
In the early part of December, CIAC started to receive information requests
about a supposed "virus" which could be contracted via America OnLine, simply
by reading a message. The following is the message that CIAC received:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Here is some important information. Beware of a file called Goodtimes. |
| |
| Happy Chanukah everyone, and be careful out there. There is a virus on |
| America Online being sent by E-Mail. If you get anything called "Good |
| Times", DON'T read it or download it. It is a virus that will erase your |
| hard drive. Forward this to all your friends. It may help them a lot. |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
THIS IS A HOAX. Upon investigation, CIAC has determined that this message
originated from both a user of America Online and a student at a university
at approximately the same time, and it was meant to be a hoax.
CIAC has also seen other variations of this hoax, the main one is that any
electronic mail message with the subject line of "xxx-1" will infect your
computer.
This rumor has been spreading very widely. This spread is due mainly to the
fact that many people have seen a message with "Good Times" in the header.
They delete the message without reading it, thus believing that they have
saved themselves from being attacked. These first-hand reports give a false
sense of credibility to the alert message.
There has been one confirmation of a person who received a message with
"xxx-1" in the header, but an empty message body. Then, (in a panic, because
he had heard the alert), he checked his PC for viruses (the first time he
checked his machine in months) and found a pre-existing virus on his machine.
He incorrectly came to the conclusion that the E-mail message gave him the
virus (this particular virus could NOT POSSIBLY have spread via an E-mail
message). This person then spread his alert.
As of this date, there are no known viruses which can infect merely through
reading a mail message. For a virus to spread some program must be executed.
Reading a mail message does not execute the mail message. Yes, Trojans have
been found as executable attachments to mail messages, the most notorious
being the IBM VM Christmas Card Trojan of 1987, also the TERM MODULE Worm
(reference CIAC Bulletin B-7) and the GAME2 MODULE Worm (CIAC Bulletin B-12).
But this is not the case for this particular "virus" alert.
If you encounter this message being distributed on any mailing lists, simply
ignore it or send a follow-up message stating that this is a false rumor.

Status: O
Dear IR-folks,
As you do know by now, the scary story about ""good times" virus"
that has been propagating all over the internet, turned out to be
a hoax, sort of middle-of-winter-1-April joke -- I guess
just to make your day brighter:-). Well, pretty harmless joke (not
counting a lot of wasted bandwidth, -- but than again, have you
ever seen a person who ever paid a penny out of his pocket for
the internet?:-); it still remains a mystery to me who pays for it...
(aside from an American taxpayer, of course -- you and me; don't know
about you, but I do pay my taxes, sigh.) That virus warning has been
propagated by a lot of meaning-well people (including me as a
coordinator, another sigh:-), so I hope you don't harbor any bad feelings
toward the people from whom you've received the msg first time
(and second, and third, and...:-). I've received it from many
sources by now: all of you are forgiven by me:-). BTW, the msg posted
to info-russ actually was not originally intended by the person
who sent it to me, for IR-broadcasting; it was MY initiative (of which
I informed him) to post it on info-russ; so the responsibility is all
mine (if any of you are looking for anybody to blame).
I've received by now quite a few "denauncing" msgs each of which
contains the same posting supposedly originated by CIAC (U.S. DOE's
Computer Incident Advisory Capability); that posting claims that "THE
"Good Times" VIRUS IS AN URBAN LEGEND", and a hoax. You have already
received a copy of it in the preceding IR-posting. I decided to post
the one forwarded to me by David Proulx, mostly because it has also
sort of stamp of approval from another good source, Naval Computer
Incident Response Team (NAVCIRT), of which Dave is a member (he is
also your fellow info-russ subscriber). I want to thank all the people
who sent me their copies of CIAC posting (from as near as my campus to
as far as Australia). Furthermore, a couple of guys offered their own
expert opinion that the downloading itself cannot result in virus
activity; others sent me an official copy of the posting from the AOL
administration with confirmation that it was a hoax, and the statement:
"We have never had an occurrence of a virus being spread through simply
reading email. It is possible, however, for an attached file to an
email to carry a virus that could cause a problem. We cannot scan
files in email for viruses as we do with files in public areas of
the service since email represents private electronic communication.
In order for the virus to spread to your computer, you would have
to proactively select the attached file and download it to your hard
drive. It is therefore advisable never to download attached files
from an unknown sender."
All right, guys, that's all for now. Hope this is the end of the
story (at least this one:-).
(No technical or social discussions, please...)

Status: OS
Folks,
Another Afghanistan of 1980 (or Czechoslovakia of 1968)? Russian tanks
invaded Chechnya. After slaughtering their own parliament using
tanks a year ago, they are closing the circle by striking the entire,
albeit small, nation. Tsars, or commies, or stalins, or yeltsyns, or
zhirinovskies, or generals, whatever -- doesn't matter... the same old
Russ-expansionist, world-hating shit is back in saddle again... So much
for all these exuberant cries about great Russian democracy rising like
a new sun... Sure, let us keep feeding them with billions and billions
bucks from our taxpayer pockets -- otherwise, how those poor, poor former
commies, KGBs, thieves and looters, rapists and killers, how they would
build that new shinning democracy without our money ?! And if they want
to play a bit with those little toy-tanks -- let them; boys will always
be boys, right?; and who wants to hear about those Chechens? who are they,
anyway? and after all, the oil... well, it is always better to have oil
rigs and oil pipe in the same hands, easier to do business, you know...
OK, I gather that following its tradition, this IR-net would be interested
to hear the news from the front-line. Any witness's accounts, any first-hand
information especially from "the horse's mouth" would be greatly appreciated.
News (and impressions) from both sides of the border (especially from the
other side, for I guess there will be plenty views coming from Russian
side) are welcome.
(Those of you who are more "patriotic" about Russia alone, don't forget:
the aggressor pretty often pays bitter price. And it is paid by
soldiers and their families, not by the bastards in headquarters...)

extended period of time at some later date. In the mean time, my wife
and I may have children here. In order to minimize the transplant
pain of my children, and for their general edification, I am
considering day care by a native Russian speaker. This is not
an imediate need, but I would like to get an idea of what options
are available.
Is there a strickly Russian speaking day care in this area?
How difficult will it be to find a nanny willing to speak only in
Russian? Is there a day care for the Russian embassy workers? What
about in the Jewish community? If you have any insight into this
situation, please e-mail me (shfox@eng.umd.edu) or post.
Thank you.

Excerpts from RFE/RL Daily Report No. 234, 13 December 1994
RESISTANCE IN INGUSHETIA . . . Crowds of Ingush civilians
including women and children continued thwarting the advance of
Russian armored columns. They variously barricaded roads, placed
themselves in front of advancing columns, siphoned off fuel from
trapped tanks and APCs, disabled their tracks, or shot at and set
some of them on fire, Reuters and AFP correspondents reported from
two scenes of action on 12 December. They also reported Russian
helicopter attacks on presumed sniper positions. The reports
further suggested that Russian MVD soldiers were mostly passive
and demoralized, and in some cases even seemed to sympathize with
the local people. Russian headquarters charged via ITAR-TASS that
some local residents were firing at the vehicles' fuel tanks and
wheels. In a blustering statement released through Russian media
the same day, Defense Minister Pavel Grachev charged that more
than 30 armored vehicles had been set on fire and that some
Russian soldiers had been dragged out of their vehicles by the
Ingush. Grachev accused Ingushetia's Ministry of Internal Affairs
of colluding with the civilian resistance and firing on the
Russian troops. Grachev moreover accused Ingush President Ruslan
Aushev (alongside whom he had fought in Afghanistan) of having
"declared war on Russia." Aushev replied the same day that his
people were showing their solidarity with the Chechen and accused
some Russian troops of starting incidents by firing on civilians.
-- Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
. . . AND IN DAGESTAN. Russian invasion headquarters in the North
Ossetian town of Mozdok said via its press service on 12 December
that in both Ingushetia and Dagestan, residents in some villages
were shooting at military columns and attempting to capture
weapons, vehicles, and soldiers, ITAR-TASS and Interfax reported.
In an area of Dagestan close to Chechnya's border, following the
killing of several local people, residents blocked a Russian
military column and captured at least 48, apparently MVD soldiers
on 11 December--the number was updated to 59 on 12
December--including four officers ranging in rank from major to
colonel. The villagers also captured at least four armored
vehicles which they dispatched to Chechen headquarters in Grozny.
Leaders in Dagestan interceded with the villagers for the release
of the captives. Russian media reported on 12 December that most
captives were being released. Russian headquarters charged
Dagestan's police with passivity and said--in what may be an
oblique accusation--that the Russian soldiers had "entered into
talks" prior to their capture. -- Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
YELTSIN ADDRESSES PARLIAMENT ON CHECHNYA. President Boris Yeltsin
addressed both chambers of the Russian parliament on 12 December
with a sarcastic letter, which aimed to show the implausibility of
the government resolving the Chechen conflict through
negotiations, as the parliament and public are demanding. Yeltsin
put before the upper house, the Federal Assembly, these three
rhetorical questions: (1) Should the Russian Federation negotiate
the status of Chechnya as a part of Russia, and is the parliament
ready to introduce into the constitution an amendment on the right
of Chechnya to secede, in view of the possible domino effect this
would have on other secession-minded republics within the Russian
Federation? (2) Should Russia talk to Chechen President Dzhokhar
Dudaev? (Yeltsin reminded parliamentarians that such a provision
would necessitate the State Duma to formally recognize the 1991
election of Dudaev as president.) (3) Citing a 25 March 1994 State
Duma statement on the Chechen problem, which stated the necessity
of free elections as a precondition for talks with the Chechen
leadership, Yeltsin asked the deputies how they would organize
free elections in Chechnya considering the current situation.
Yeltsin concludes his letter with a statement accusing the
deputies of sensationalizing the tragedy of the Chechen people and
the plight of Russia for future benefit in election campaigns. The
text of Yeltsin's letter to parliament was read on Radio Rossii.
-- Julia Wishnevsky, RFE/RL, Inc.
MOST STATE DUMA FACTIONS AGAINST INVASION. On 12 December leaders
of the State Duma discussed developments in Chechnya behind closed
doors. Following the meeting, leaders of the parliament factions
held a joint news conference at which it appeared that most of the
bigger factions of the State Duma condemn the invasion, Russian TV
"Vesti" reported. Those in opposition included four democratic
parties (Democratic Choice, Yavlinsky-Boldyrev-Lukin bloc,
pro-government Party of Russian Unity and Concord and the
opposition Democratic Party of Russia), the Communist Party, the
Agrarian Party, and Women of Russia. Only one faction, Vladimir
Zhirinovsky's Liberal Democratic Party, approved of the invasion,
as did two smaller groups of deputies--the nationalist Russian
Path, led by Sergei Baburin and the Liberal Democratic 12 December
Union, chaired by former Russian Finance Minister Boris Fedorov,
"Vesti" reported. -- Julia Wishnevsky, RFE/RL, Inc.
COMMUNISTS, DEMOCRATS RALLY IN PROTEST OF INVASION. A rally
organized by the once pro-Yeltsin Democratic Russia movement that
included the Russia's Choice party led by Egor Gaidar and the
faction of the economist Grigorii Yavlinsky, was held on 11
December at Moscow's Pushkin Square two hours after news of
Russian military intervention in Chechnya was reported. On 12
December, two demonstrations condemning the invasion were held at
Pushkin Square simultaneously--one organized by democrats and
addressed by a number of former liberal Russian and USSR
ministers, and the other by the militant pro-communist Workers'
Russia movement of Viktor Anpilov. Speakers at both rallies,
including a member of Gaidar's party, Sergei Yushenkov, the head
of the Duma Committee on Defense, urged that Yeltsin be impeached
because of the invasion (the call was later rebuffed by Gaidar).
Later that day, according to Russian TV newscasts, the Moscow
mayor's office warned Gaidar that the rallies were illegal because
the organizers had not received permission for the meeting as
required by law. -- Julia Wishnevsky, RFE/RL, Inc.

"Lietuvos Aidas", a Lithuanian daily has published on December 12
an account of events in Chechnia, written by Gintaras Visockas in
Grozny. The dayly was obtained by email from AGEP -- Algis E.
Gedris aq106@cleveland.Freenet.Edu. My wife and I found the
article rather touching and we decided to make a free translation
of it and send it to whoever wishes to hear this cry of the
oppressed:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Who rules Chechens, has the Caucasus in their hand,
by Gintaras Visockas (December 12)
I was woken up by the sound of muffled explosions in the vicinity,
apparently still on the outskirts of Grozny. In the last few days
I have learned to distinguish between the thunder of a tank and
the explosions of bombs, dropped by planes. The aerial bombing
produces more noise. Besides that, when the Russian planes appear
over Grozny, the chechen anti-aircraft guns open their fire. This
time the fire came from the tanks.
The rumbling did persist. Every minute the city was shaken by a few
thunderous hits. No doubt, all city's inhabitants were awakened. At that
time I still did not know, but guessed that the attack of Grozny has
begun.
I made some coffee. Kept the gas burning, as inside was cold as always.
Tried to write, usuccessfully. In my mind's eye stood the city of
Vilnius, distant and unreachable. I tried to push aside all thoughts of
my homeland. The thundering was increasing. The tanks were approaching
the city. There was a knock on my door by my neighbour, a chechen who
has a wife and two little girls.
- Gintaras, the Russians are attacking. Judging by the sound, the
battle rages near the road of Petroplavskaya. That's just a few
kilometers away.
I shared my coffee with the chechen.
- You have yesterday spoken with the president. What did he tell
you? Will we prevail?
- Yes, the president will not waver, there is no reason to doubt,
I replied.
On Friday evening, when everybody in the city was talking about
the imminent attack as unavoidable event, somebody spread a rumour
that Dudaiev will give a press conference. No conference took
place. An aid of the president came out to the corridor and said:
Dudayev asked to tell you - Russians will not succeed to take the
city.
My early guest departed and I remained alone. The ominous rumbling
intensified. I packed my belongings and hid vicepresident
Zelimchan Jandarbiev's permit to telephone Vilnius.
The dawn was breaking. City streets looked deserted. Through the
window I see the wanderings of abandoned dogs. After every
thunderous noise, they shudder and howl fearfully. The morning is
sunny, warm. On such days the chechen men like to congregate near
shashlyk-vendors: some for a yarn, others for a bite to eat. I had
the feeling that in the streets of Dagestan the smell of fresh
shashlyks will never emanate from the shops.
By nine o'clock not only the windows were vibrating, but also the
floor. Through the window I spotted eight chechen military men,
armed with bazookas, running towards the Press Building. Through
the street of Dagestan, towards the Government House, with their
engines rumbling one after another passed five, with white paint
marked tanks. Whose tanks are they? Russian? At that time I still
did not understand, but all became clear very soon, when three of
the tanks, after deafening explosions, were engulfed in fire.
About 14:00 hrs (2 pm. - AK), the battle quitened somewhat. In the
streets of Dagestan men were assembling. Some were telling that
near the Press Building there were fierce battles and several Russian
tanks are still standing there; others knew already, that in
Katayama, where president's family lives, it was hot also. One
chechen said he saw a few hundred meters from where we gathered a
hit tank with a tank crewman lying besides in a pool of blood.
On 16:00 hrs in the suburbs of Grozny the battle intensified
again. When dusk set it, the firing continued. The Ostankino
television announced "opposition's" victory, and it quitened
again. People could not believe their ears: such an arrogant lie!
The buildings in the Freedom pr. are windowless. I am wading
through piles of glass. In the Independence sqare, in front of the
Government Building, burns a bus and a tank. The top of the tank
is thrown a few hundred meters and is stuck into the ground. Above
the tank on the conduits of the tram, hangs half of a human body
with the head. As I soon ascertained myself, similar scenes were
seen in other city streets. In the group of soldiers I recognised
a personal guard of Dudayev.
- You are still here? - asked he, surprised.
Information Minister Movladz Udugov could hardly hide his feeling
of relief that he was radiating. He even asked, what did I came
for. Order immediately telephone talk to Lithuania. After a few
seconds, he lifted the official telephone receiver and added:
- Connect us to Vilnius without delay.
At first Vilnius would not believe, that Grozny was not taken,
because they already had heard the lies of Otankino.
On Sunday Grozny was flooded with journalists. Together with them
I saw Russian prisoners -- dirty, dishevelled, tattered. A major,
a capitan, two leutenants, six regular army soldiers, trained in
the famous Taman and Kantemir divisions. They thought, that the
people of Grozny are sick ant tired of Dudayev's policies and
consequently that the Russians will be met with open arms and
bouquets of flowers. Found in the tanks was not only amunition. In
some of the tanks, the chechens found parade uniforms, vodka,
food, condoms. For the "pleasant time" in Chechnia's capital it
was promised 6 million rubles each: three immediately, and three
after the victory.
I did not feel neither sympathy, nor hate towards the Russian
soldiers. Had hardly a chance to talk to them -- the speed-speach
of Moscow journalists ovewhelmed. Don't they beat you? Humiliate
you? Feed you? What could we tell your family?
When Aleksander Yevtushenka ("Komsomolskaya Pravda") turned to the
capitan, "Andrusha, what can I tell your wife?", the chechen
guard could not contain himself:
- Tell her, that in Andrusha's pockets we found American made
condoms...
Abu Arsumkajev, the head of the presidents guard, also spoke-up.
He told us, journalists, when he let us meet the "conquerors" of
Grozny: 'The so called "oposition" has not shown mercy to any of
Dudayev's supporters. Our people are tied to a tree and torn to
bits alive - fed to hungry dogs'.
The head of president's guard is not very accurate: after all one
chechen did return to Grozny. That's the general procurator Umar
Imaiev. Actually, he returned all grey haired. In the summer he
was still a young man, but now he is ten years older and developed
a speach defect. The Russians attempted to force the general
procurator to "reveal Dudayev's financial machinations". The
procurator refused to lie.
Chechens are not inclined to talk about the suffering, endured in
enemy's capture or about the pain of a loss of a close-one. I
heard from a person other than Aslan Maschadov, how cruelly were
dealt with Machadov's brothers. One of them was crushed by a
tank. A relative of the president was burned alive.
Chechens can only be destroyed. Will Russia determine to take such
a step? First - russification, in 1807 was planed to displace
chechens from their native lands, by a Russian official Loficki.
In 1852 Tsar Nicholas II spoke himself of the absolute need to
russify the chechens. In 1856 general Milutin decided to re-settle
chechens in the Don region.
In 1863 Russian generals, Karcov, Melikov and Musukundov argued
how they could be moved to the empire of Turkey and how to give
their lands to the kozakhs. In 1865 April-May it was succeeded to
deport 4097 families (about 20 thousand chechens). This fact is
recorded in 1925 publication in Moscow of a book with a long name:
"Dielo kanceliariji nacalnika Terskoj oblasti po sekretnomu stolu
o preseleniji tuzemcov Terskoj oblasti v Turciju".
In 1869 yet another plan to liquidate the chechens saw the light
of day. It's author - baron, linguist, general Piotr Uslar, who
wrote that in Caucasus met arab and slav civilisations and
Russians will never be able to rest, if they don't prevail over
chechens.
Russians tried to conquer chechens also in 1944. All were deported
to the steppes of North Kasachstan (the chechen men at the same
time were serving in Soviet armed forces -- they fought Germans).
Those who survived, after several years returned home and
bit-by-bit pushed back Russian colonists, who at first would not
allow the chechens to use chechen language, even when conversing
between themselves. Chechens were not subdued, but lost a lot of
people. "If it was not for the war with slavs over the last three
hundred years, we would be ten million. Now - only one and two
hundred thousand. This year Yelcin will, no doubt, endeavour that
our numbers are further reduced", -- these are the spoken thoughts
of an employee of Chechenpress.
All that notwithstanding, today the fate of Caucasus is being
determined. Who rules Grozny, has in their hands all Caucasus.
These words I have heard many times. There is a lot of truth in
that. The truth would be stronger if today there were five times
more chechens.
On Tuesday, Dudayev spoke with journalists. At that moment Russian
planes started bombing again. On the floor first fell the Russian
journalists. These images were captured by Chechen TV: at the feet
of president Dudayev, general procurator Imayev and foreign
minister Samsudin, lay frightened Russian journalists. Did they
reflect on what at the same moment is felt by chechen women and
children?
Wednesday, after three days have elapsed since the storming of
Grozny, the security service chief of Chechenia sought me out and
said:
- Return home. Chechens are being rounded up in Moscow. Russians
want to exchange them to captured tank crews. For the head of a
Lithuanian, heaven knows what the Moscow may demand; or they will
force you to tell the world that which never happened.
I got ready to travel in an hour. I still remember warm, sunny
morning. It seemed that all city prays to Allah. Prayed not only
in the Independence square assembled chechens. In offices, on
prayer matts, words of prayer were said by ministers, officers,
president. After the prayers, towards the mountains moved tens of
busses and cars with women and children, whilst to the city
flooded volunteers from villages of the district, Dagestan,
Ingushia, Kabarda... I saw no fear in their faces. As if war was a
normal state of affairs. In a few hours, Grozny became a city of
men.
I recalled the suggestions of certain politicians in Lithuania
that the letting of the blood in North Caucasus is happening
because chechen clans are arguing about the division of wealth and
government.
I could not say goodbye to friends. The chechen who looked after
me did not want anyone to see that somebody is leaving. Who knows
what might happen. He drove up to the very door. At that time the
road to Ingushia was not controlled by the Russian army, I had
hidden my Lithuanian passport and journalist's certificate. We
agreed: if someone were to stop us, I am a Russian and live in
Nazrane.
At the border of Chechnya and Ingushia we were met by an Ingush.
Changed cars. On the road nobody stopped us. In Nazrane I spent
almost two whole days, because at that time Ingush conscripts were
being moved to Moscow. I could not walk in the city. Even when
neighbours dropped in, I was locked in a far away room.
Until the plane landed in Moscow, I had no news about Chechnya.
The show windows of Moscow sported Christmas trees with flashing
lights, smiling Old Man Frost, good hearted Snow Whites. You would
never guess that Moscow was preparing for a decisive storming of
Grozny. In the lurching Lithuanian train, I felt deep
depression...
Grozny-Vilnius.

RUSSIA: Chechnya Intervention
176 Lines Updated On:Tuesday, December 13, 1994
12/13/94
RUSSIA: Chechnya Intervention
EVENT: Russian military forces entered Chechnya on December
11 in an attempt to bring the rebellious republic to heel.
SIGNIFICANCE: The decision to escalate the crisis was taken
for reasons more of institutional rivalry in Moscow than the
Chechen situation.
ANALYSIS: Moscow's decision to send troops into Chechnya had
little to do with the situation there:
-- A ceasefire had been agreed with Defence Minister
Pavel Grachev, and further talks were scheduled.
-- The clan leaders who really run Chechnya had
reportedly told Dudayev to reach agreement with
Moscow on wide autonomy for Chechnya in return for
Chechen recognition of Russian sovereignty.
The lobbies and individuals behind the decision to send
Russian troops into Chechnya were making military and
political calculations which had more to do with institutional
rivalries in Moscow than with events in the Caucasus.
Military calculations. The 40,000 Russian troops now in
Chechnya enjoy an overwhelming numerical superiority and could
seize Grozny and other major towns. However, few of them are
first-echelon regulars or specialist counter-insurgency
troops, and they would be likely to achieve these aims only at
substantial cost to themselves and the local population.
Their ability to pacify the countryside is very much in doubt.
The bulk of the Russian force now in Chechnya comes from the
Interior Ministry's Interior Troops (VV) and Special Motorised
Police Battalions (SMBM). Neither are particularly highly
trained or well equipped. Chechen regular troops number some
3,000 men. Irregulars make up the bulk of the Chechen forces,
numbering perhaps 30,000, either in the volunteer Self-Defence
Units or the police Patrol-Guard Units, which are largely made
up of clan gunmen who have been issued state licences. If
talks fail, Dudayev's strategy will be to embroil the Russians
in street fighting in Grozny and then, if necessary, take to
the hills to wage a guerrilla war against Russian patrols and
supply lines.
The internal security troops and second-echelon regular units
which have been deployed to Chechnya lack the training,
professionalism and morale which such a war would require.
The experience of the first two days of intervention
highlights the problem:
-- Two Russian platoons surrendered to the Chechens
rather than fight in a conflict which they did not
understand and in which they had no stake.
-- Ingush gunmen were able to ambush a Russian column
headed for Chechnya. They destroyed a dozen
personnel carriers, damaged a dozen more and held up
another 40 for several hours.
-- Russian forces moving into Chechnya from Dagestan also
met with resistance which was not easily overcome.
Political calculations. The blunders of the last three days
are in part a result of the fact that the Ministry of Defence
(MO) has been marginalised in the operation. Plans for
intervention were finalised in the border town of Mozdok at a
meeting attended by FSK chief Sergei Stepashin, a senior VV
commander and Deputy Prime Minister Nikolai Yegorov, who has
responsibility for nationalities policy (see OADB, December 9,
1994, III). Grachev failed to appear.
The use of SKVO forces rather than paratroopers and other
elite units is a reflection of MO non-involvement. Grachev,
himself an ex-paratrooper, resisted efforts to deploy his
prize units but could not prevent the increasingly independent
SKVO commanders from working with the FSK. The conduct of the
SKVO command is a further symptom of the army's loss of
cohesion.
The timing and manner of the operation suggests that it was
launched in order to forestall an attempt by Dudayev to
mollify Moscow. At a meeting of Chechnya's principal clan
leaders, Dudayev was told to replace his assertions of Chechen
independence with proposals for autonomy within the Russian
Federation. This would have represented a major concession on
Dudayev's part, although it would also have ensured that
Chechen criminal organisations continued to enjoy the benefits
of operating within Russia's borders.
Hardliners in Moscow, however, chose not to wait for the
outcome of the talks scheduled for yesterday, for two reasons:
1. President Boris Yeltsin, having been encouraged by his
closest aides to take a tough line on Chechnya, believed that
his personal prestige was at stake. He was reportedly
encouraged in this belief by the increasingly powerful
Aleksandr Korzhakov, commander of the Presidential Security
Service (PSB). Korzhakov believes he cannot lose:
-- If Chechnya is promptly subdued, he and the PSB will
share in the credit for this achievement.
-- If not, the ensuing threat of Chechen terrorism will
justify generous additional funding for the PSB and
other internal security bodies, as well as the
expansion of their powers and functions.
2. The last significant meetings with Dudayev were handled by
Grachev. A prompt Chechen capitulation on the issue of
independence would have redounded to his credit. The internal
security forces, keeping the 1995 budget in mind, were keen to
ensure that the MO did not reap the benefits of a settlement
in Chechnya. Moreover, Grachev's many personal enemies have
no desire to see his political fortunes recover.
The hardliners backing the intervention are themselves anxious
to reach agreement with Dudayev and thereby to avoid having to
take Grozny and other towns by force. However, they are
determined that such an agreement be concluded at a time and
in a manner which suits their budgetary and political
interests, and which gives at least the appearance of strong
action achieving the desired result.
Implications. The Chechnya intervention raises three major
risks:
1. Protracted conflict. Regardless of what concessions are
extracted from Dudayev or any other Chechen leader, the
effective reimposition of Moscow's authority will require not
a paper treaty but a forcible reimposition of it on the clans
in the countryside and the gangs in the cities. Chechen
terrorism in other parts of Russia also remains a very real
potential danger. Threats of attacks on Russian nuclear power
plants have already led to tighter security.
Moreover, it is unclear whether Dudayev will be prepared to
make the concessions which might have been on offer in the
absence of an invasion. Giving way now could simply eliminate
his usefulness to the clan elders and would in any case raise
the risk of his being outflanked by the Afghan Mujahedin and
Turkish 'Grey Wolves' who have come to Chechnya both to fight
Russia and to campaign for a strict Islamic state.
2. Regional tensions. There is considerable opposition to
the Russian move in other republics of the federation,
especially in Chechnya's neighbours in the North Caucasus.
Russian units have come under attack in Dagestan and
Ingushetia, and volunteers from across the region are moving
to join the Chechens.
3. Backlash at home. The hardliners are calculating that the
political uproar in Moscow will be short-lived. Criticism
from parliament and from most of the major parties has been
sharp, but it is not clear to what extent public opinion is
outraged or how long Yeltsin's parliamentary opponents will
concern themselves with Chechnya. Chechen criminal activities
have made them unpopular among ordinary Russians, and Dudayev
certainly has few, if any, supporters in the political elite.
However, if Russians begin to die in Chechnya in significant
numbers or if Chechen terrorism begins to make itself felt in
Russia proper, then the intervention could quickly become a
major political liability.
CONCLUSION: To succeed, the intervention must bring Chechnya
into line quickly and at low cost. If Russian forces are
unable to extract the necessary concessions without entering
Grozny, then Moscow faces the risk of becoming embroiled in a
long and costly struggle.

KOVALEV'S TEAM BARRED FROM FLYING TO CHECHNYA. A group of Russian
legislators were stoppped in a Moscow airport and prevented from
flying to Chechnya, where they were to open negotiations with
Dzhokhar Dudaev on behalf of the State Duma, Russian TV program
"Vesti" and news agencies reported on 13 December. Led by the
widely respected Sergei Kovalev, chairman of Yeltsin's human
rights committee that is supposed to observe human rights from
inside Yeltsin's administration, the parliamentary delegation
included former political prisoner Mikhail Molostvov, who
represented the liberal Russia's Choice faction, Valerii Borshchov
of the Yabloko bloc and Leonid Petrovsky of the Communist Party;
the delegation also included Oleg Orlov, the head of the human
rights section of the Moscow anti-Stalinist "Memorial." Kovalev's
team planned to fly to Mozdok in North Ossetia by military plane
and then proceed to Grozny, where they were to enter negotiations
with Chechen President Dudaev. -- Julia Wishnevsky, RFE/RL, Inc.

SPILLOVER EFFECT IN CAUCASUS. A delegation of the Confederation
of the Peoples of the Caucasus handed to the Russian Duma's First
Vice Chairman, Mikhail Mityukov, in Moscow a message demanding an
end to hostilities and the withdrawal of Russian troops from
Chechnya. The Confederation's parliament chairman, Ali Aliev,
warned on Russian TV the same day that unless stopped now, the
hostilities will spread far beyond Chechnya. According to
Interfax on 14 December, Aliev issued instructions for the
setting up of offices to induct volunteers in Nalchik
(Kabardo-Balkaria), Maykop (Adygei), Cherkessk
(Karachay-Cherkessia), Vladikavkaz (North Ossetia), Nazran
(Ingushetia), Makhachkala (Dagestan), Sukhumi (Abkhazia), and
Nazran (Ingushetia). Central headquarters are to be set up in
Grozny and in Nalchik under the Confederation's Adygei Vice
President, Amin Zekhov. In Dagestan, pro-Chechen villagers who
had seized 59 Russian soldiers released only some of their
captives, contrary to earlier reports. The Russian government's
press center charged in a communique on 14 December that "the
Dagestani leaders are not making any effort to resolve the
issue." Dagestani residents also continued blocking a Russian MVD
armored unit en route to Chechnya; the unit has gone into a
"perimeter defense posture," Interfax and ITAR-TASS reported on
14 December. Special measures were ordered to reinforce security
at key economic and transport installations in Dagestan and to
secure Dagestan's borders against the penetration of arms and
armed groups from Chechnya. The republic's government appealed to
the population "not to follow those who by words or deeds provoke
the people into unleashing a new Caucasus war." In Ingushetia's
capital Nazran, a mass rally on 14 December protested against the
use of force in the Caucasus and demanded "a stop to the murder
of Chechen civilians and bombing of Chechen settlements,"
Interfax reported. Ingush President Ruslan Aushev told Moscow's
Independent TV the same day that his people could not forget how
the same Russian armored columns "and the same Defense Minister"
assisted in the destruction of Ingush settlements and the
expulsion of Ingush population from North Ossetia in 1992. He
called for "peaceful talks" with Dudaev and "a prompt end to
bloodshed." Continuing fighting would "drag in [people from] the
neighboring republics, they are already beginning to move." The
Ingush authorities charged that drunken Russian soldiers had
beaten up the Ingush Minister of Health to death and had also
killed one fellow-Russian soldier and injured two others,
Interfax reported. Kabardo-Balkaria's parliament and government,
evidently caught between two fires, appealed in a joint statement
for a Russian-Chechen negotiated settlement while warning the
population against heeding "statements that could give rise to
armed conflicts in other parts of North Caucasus."
Kabardo-Balkaria's President Valerii Kokov decreed a temporary
ban on rallies, demonstrations, and pickets in the republic. In
Abkhazia's capital Sukhumi, a mass rally was held to express
solidarity with Chechnya. Independent TV reported that at this
rally and elsewhere in Abkhazia, men were offering services as
volunteers for Chechnya; and that Russian forces in Abkhazia were
reinforcing its borders to intercept any volunteers. In Baku, a
leader of Azerbaijan's opposition Grey Wolves party told Interfax
on 14 December that about 270 Grey Wolves had gone to Chechnya as
volunteers. -- Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
CRITICAL VOICES. Concern over the invasion's spillover effect was
voiced, among many others, by Boris Yeltsin's former ethnic
affairs adviser Galina Starovoitova, currently co-chairman of
Democratic Russia, on Russian Radio on 14 December. Besides
condemning Yeltsin's "crude use" of "notorious tools of imperial
policy," Starovoitova predicted that the military intervention in
Chechnya will "produce mistrust of the center's policy and
centrifugal tendencies in Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Yakutia,
Karelia," and other parts of the Russian Federation. Speaking
from a military point of view, Lt.-General Aleksandr Lebed in
Komsomolskaya pravda of 14 December warned "our state leaders and
their all-wise Defense Minister" that they will achieve "a
Pyrrhic victory" in Chechnya. In separate statements quoted by
the 14 December Financial Times, Lebed and Deputy Defense
Minister Col.-General Boris Gromov, both of whom fought in
Afghanistan, warned that the intervention in Chechnya could turn
into an Afghanistan-type protracted war. -- Vladimir Socor,
RFE/RL, Inc.
RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT BROADENS WARNINGS BEYOND CHECHNYA. Appearing
on Ostankino TV on 13 December, Prime Minister Viktor
Chernomyrdin threatened to hold the Chechen and Ingush leaders
responsible for "pushing [their] people under the tanks" of the
Russian invasion force. (Correspondents' reports from the field
indicate that the crowds seeking to block Russian tanks act
spontaneously). Defense Minister Pavel Grachev, also on
television, accused Ingush President Ruslan Aushev of having
"declared war on Russia." In his TV appearance, Chernomyrdin
along with First Deputy Prime Minister Oleg Soskovets at a 14
December briefing cited by Interfax, and Federal
Counterintelligence Service First Deputy Director Anatolii
Safonov in the governmental Rossiiskaia gazeta of 14 December all
charged that "thousands" of fighters from Afghanistan, Pakistan,
Tajikistan, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, and the Baltic States had joined
the Chechen forces. (No known independent source has reported on
such fighters in Chechnya). The claim may be designed as an
excuse for sending in additional Russian forces, or pressuring
some of the countries named. Adding a fresh justification for the
operation, Federation Council chairman Vladimir Shumeiko
described it to Interfax on 14 December as a "peacekeeping
mission, to separate the warring sides," such as Russia is
undertaking in CIS states. -- Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.

Itak, kratkii referat po Chechne.
Eta nebol'shaia (600 tys. chechencev; stolica - Groznyi, 400
tys. vsego) polu-gornaia territoriia uje davno - s konca 91-go -
iavochnym poriadkom nezavisima ni ot chego. Vozglavliaet ee nekto
general Djohar Dudaev - byvshii komandir ni bol'she ni men'she kak
divizii strategicheskoi aviacii, to est' general iz pervoi
tridcatki po znacheniiu.
Narod tam iz naibolee 'krutyh' na vsem Kavkaze. Voorujeny
seichas uje, vidimo, vse pogolovno, prichem 'Kalashnikov'
rassmatrivaetsia kak orujie ne ochen' ser'eznoe.
Pri etom cherez Chechniu idut magistral'naia jelezka
Rostov-Baku i odin iz krupneishih gazoprovodov SSSR. Poetomu
poezda organizovanno grabili na industrial'noi osnove, a
gazoprovod ugrojali vzorvat', esli chto.
Estestvenno, neskol'ko let Moskve bylo ne do togo. V bytnost'
vice-prezidentom Ruckoi, pravda, chut' ne ustroil nalet sil MVD na
Groznyi, no progressivnaia obshestvennost' v byvshem Verh.Sovete
ne razreshila. V rezul'tate Chechnia tri goda byla velikolepnoi
dyroi v granice, cherez kotoruiu shli i den'gi, i orujie, i proch.
Estestvenno, i ugolovnyh prestupnikov ona ne vydavala.
V poslednee vremia byli prodelany sravnitel'no razumnye
deistviia: i jelezku i gazoprovod produblirovali v obhod Chechni.
Odnako nikakogo podobiia granicy ne vozveli. Avtobusy hodiat.
Vse by nichego, no v sviazi s ocheredym krizisom v obshem
bardake voznik zakaz na 'malen'kuiu pobedonosnuiu voinu'.
Snachala za delo vzialos' ex-KGB (vnutrenniaia polovina).
Reshili razygrat' standartnyi scenarii: Dudaeva svergaet
vnutrenniaia chechenskaia oppoziciia, a Rossiia ni pri chem. K
sojaleniiu, tut je okazalos', chto edinstvennaia figura,
sposobnaia kak-to konkurirovat' s Dudaevym - Ruslan Hasbulatov.
Eta kandidatura po poniatnym prichinam ne poshla, poetomu
nachal'nikom 'oppozicii' sdelali nekuiu nevzrachnuiu figuru iz
zahudalogo roda - nekto Avtorhanov (naverno, rodstvennik tomu).
Uje poluchilos' ne slava bogu.
Pravda, udalos' peremanit' odnogo populiarnogo bandita,
kotoryi chego-to ne podelil s Dudaevym. Tak chto shansy byli.
'Oppozicii' otkryli neogranichennyi kredit den'gami, orujiem
i tehnikoi. Daje neskol'ko boevyh vertoletov s ekipajami podarili.
No poka 'oppoziciia' raskachivalas' i delila portfeli, Dudaev
okazalsia neplohim taktikom, darom chto letchik. On vnezapno
brosil vse sily (okolo 10 tankov) na otriad etogo samogo bandita i
v tiajelom boiu razbil ego nagolovu. V rezul'tate chego
'oppoziciia' lishilas' edinstvennoi skol'ko-nibud' boesposobnoi

Vot tut nachalsia vodevil'. GB-shniki ezdili po diviziiam i
NANIMALI ZA DEN'GI oficerov i soldat voevat' s Dudaevym, prichem
bez vedoma armeiskogo nachal'stva. Vsego za limon s nosa - okolo
$300. Nabrali chelovek 80 - 25 ekipajei (v osnovnom iz Tamanki i
Kantemirovskoi, poskol'ku dal'she ezdit' bylo len'), privezli v
Chechniu i posadili v tanki. I - vnimanie! - operativno podchnili
orlam iz 'oppozicii'.
Rasskaz tankista (ne vru!): Nu, v'ehali my v Groznyi.
Nikakogo protivnika ne bylo. 'Oppozicionery' tut je razbejalis'
grabit' gorod, my ostalis' bez pehoty. Boevaia zadacha byla: vyiti
k telecentru i stoiat'. Vyshli, stoim. 'Komandovanie' na sviaz' ne

stala orat' i streliat'. Prikaza otkryvat' ogon' ne bylo. Pliunul,
vylez iz tanka, strel'nul iz pistoleta v nasedaiushih mestnyh i
ushel peshkom. Do temnoty brodil po Groznomu, potom narvalsia na
patrul'. Vot tak popal v plen.
V plen popalo chelovek 15, troe ubityh. Dudaevu dostalos'
okolo desiati ispravnyh tankov.
Reakciia vlastei - mojete sami dogadat'sia. Nichego ne znaem,
eto ne nashi voennoslujashie, i tanki ne nashi. Estestvenno,

Elkin vystupil s zaiavleniem tipa: ' Eto ne nashi soldaty, no esli
hot' odnogo tronete - vseh raznesem k chertovoi materi!'
Potom nachalos' palomnichestvo za plennymi. Pervymi priehali
'Vyborossy' - zabrali troih. Potom naehal Jirinovskii, i tut je -
lichno ministr oborony tov. Grachev. Oboim vydali po piat'.
Sleduet otdat' doljnoe, obrashalis' s plennymi vpolne prilichno.

Nu, zapahlo porohom, tehnika sobralas' v kolonny - i tut nash

Excerpts from RFE/RL Daily Report No. 237, 16 December 1994
RFE/RL Research Institute is a division of
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, Inc.
YELTSIN EXTENDS CHECHEN ULTIMATUM. In an address to the Chechen
people transmitted by ITAR-TASS late on 15 December, Russian
President Boris Yeltsin extended by 48 hours the deadline (due to
expire at midnight on 15 December) for all armed groups in
Chechnya to lay down their weapons, adding that he would consider
such a ceasefire " a demonstration of good will and a first step
towards the restoration of peace and legality" in Chechnya.
....After a brief period of calm
during the morning, fighting resumed during the afternoon of 15
December as Russian tanks with air and artillery support continued
their advance on Grozny from the north; the advance was halted
when some 70 Russian tanks and armored vehicles ran into swampy
ground, ITAR-TASS reported. -- Liz Fuller, RFE/RL, Inc.
SITUATION AROUND GROZNY. Late on 15 December the chief of Russia's
Federal Counterintelligence Service, Sergei Stepashin, announced
that "it is necessary to leave open a corridor for the possible
evacuation of the population from Grozny." The announcement, made
at invasion headquarters in Mozdok via ITAR-TASS, could only
strengthen Chechen resolve stemming from the memory of the 1944
deportations of the Chechen and Ingush--a memory also recently
reinforced by the 1992 ethnic cleansing of the Ingush from North
Ossetia with Russian military support. Also in Mozdok, Russian
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Nationality Affairs Nikolai
Egorov, who acts as Yeltsin's special representative for Chechnya,
told ITAR-TASS on 15 December that Yeltsin may impose a state of
emergency in Chechnya in connection with an impending operation of
"disarming the unlawful armed groups." .....
On the same day the government's press center belatedly
acknowledged that Russian fighter-bomber planes had been used
against Chechen positions since 13 December. The communique
complained that Chechen fighters were using hit-and-run tactics
and taking cover amid the civilian population. Official
communiques from Moscow and from invasion headquarters in Mozdok
on 14 and 15 December also accused Chechen fighters of attacking
Russian units said to perform humanitarian missions and of downing
Russian helicopters said to carry aid goods. ...

.....The Director of the
Russian Foreign Ministry's Humanitarian Affairs Department,
Vyacheslav Bakhmin, admitted at a briefing reported by Russian
Radio that "as the federal authorities restore the constitutional
order in Chechnya, violations of human rights, including the right
to live, will occur. Such violations are absolutely unavoidable,"
he said. -- Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
RUMBLINGS IN THE CAUCASUS . . . Villagers in Ingushetia continued
erecting "serious obstacles" in the way of rear sections of the
Russian troop column headed for Grozny, Egorov complained to
ITAR-TASS on 15 December. Ingush president Ruslan Aushev told a
media briefing in Moscow the same day that Ingushetia is sending
humanitarian aid to Chechnya. Aushev denied that his republic is
also providing military aid but stressed that "no one can check
the participation of Ingush in the military conflict" on the side
of their close relatives, the Chechen. Aushev called for the
withdrawal of Russian troops from Chechnya as a prerequisite to
any political settlement, and condemned "negotiations at
gunpoint." He held both Yeltsin and "those who advised him"
personally responsible for the turn of events. In Dagestan,
villagers continued blocking the advance of the Russian troop
column into Chechnya, ITAR-TASS reported on 15 December. A
pro-Russian parliamentary deputy from Dagestan told Radio Mayak on
14 December that "a growing number of young people in his republic
are acquiring weapons and preparing to come to the aid of
Chechnya." North Ossetia's Deputy Prime Minister Georgii
Kozaev--representing a republic traditionally aligned with
Moscow--complained in Pravda on 15 December that Russia's
"irresponsible and adventurist policy" was fanning anti-Russian
sentiment throughout the region, jeopardizing the Russian
Federation's integrity, and playing into the hands of Islam. Even
loyal North Ossetians objected to the use of their territory as a
staging area for the Russian military operation, he said. --
Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
KOVALEV ARRIVES IN GROZNY. On its third attempt, the human rights
delegation led by Russia's ombudsman, Sergei Kovalev, arrived in
Grozny on 15 December. Kovalev said that he planned to try to
convince Dudaev to compromise with Russian authorities and scored
an early success when soon after arriving Dudaev agreed to talk to
the delegation without any preconditions. Kovalev was earlier
prevented from going to Chechnya aboard the personal aircraft of
Petr Deinekin, the commander of the Russian Air Force. Kovalev's
team, along with another group of State Duma deputies led by
General Nikolai Stolyarov, then made another attempt to reach
Grozny via Mozdok in North Ossetia, but the plane was sent back.
The human rights delegation finally made it on an Aeroflot flight
to Mineralnye Vody in the neighboring Stavropol region and then to
Grozny with the help of Ingush authorities. The delegation
includes three Duma deputies--Mikhail Molostvov of Russia's
Choice, Valerii Borshchov of Yabloko, and Leonid Petrovsky of the
Communist Party--as well as Oleg Orlov, the expert of the
anti-Stalinist "Memorial" society. -- Julia Wishnevsky, RFE/RL, Inc.

Subject:INFO-RUSS:need information on Chechnya
Status: OS
Dear friend,
I have already sent the message below to Grozny (I have only five
addresses for Grozny), but I got NO replies; most likely all the
telephone lines to Grozny are cut off... Now I am sending it to
the addresses in the areas close to Chechnya in hope that you will
share with us information about the situation in Chechnya.
I am an organizer and coordinator of an e-mail news-list INFO-RUSS,
which links the community of refugees and emigrants from ex-USSR in
the USA and worldwide. I has more than 1000 subscribers in the USA,
Canada, Israel, all the major European countries, England, Australia,
South America, Japan, etc. (By the way, on INFO-RUSS, we also use
Russain language, tak chto vy mozhete otvechat' mne po russki, ispolzuya
angliskie bukvy takim zhe obrazom kak ya pishu eti strochki.)
On the day of invasion of Russian military into Chechnya, I posted a
message to INFO-RUSS inquiring information about events in Chechnya.
So far we've got quite a few reports about the situation, and reviews
about history of the the conflict. But NONE of the came from the most
relevant sources -- from Chechnya. We need to hear from you; we need to
hear YOUR part of the story. Would you please provide us with witness's
reports, any report from the people who were directly involved into any
clashes with Russian army, or people who personally witnessed what is
happening with civil population (ANY civil population, either Chechens
or Russians or any other), or description of how people tried to stop
tanks with their bodies, of what happened with soldiers on both side
of the front, of any damages to people's homes, villages, situations
with refugees from the area, with violations of human rights, about
volunteers from other Caucasian areas coming to help Chechnya, etc.
We would be interested to hear stories both from Chechens and Russians,
from Muslims and Christian, from any other community in that area,
and from soldiers (on both sides of the tranches...)
My main task, the way I see it, is to let the world -- or at least
my subscribers -- know what is happening in reality, and from all the
parties involved, not just from one party, or one country, or one group
of population. The more people know, the easier it will be for them to
appeal to authorities in their respective countries for help. The first
victim of any war is the truth. Help us to help you. At this point,
governments of many countries (including the USA), prefer to pay no
attention to Russian tanks moving into your country. It has happened
before (like with Czechoslovakia), it is happening again. Have your voice
and your witness's accounts heard. There is no guarantee it would help;
but without your speaking out, it will be for sure much worse...
Esli vash anliiskii huzhe chem vash russkii yazyk, pishite po russki
(my esche ponimaem po russki:-). K sozhaleniyu, nikto iz nas ne znaet
chechenskogo, ili dagestanskogo, ili drugih yazykov v zone interesa,
i ya izvinyayus' za eto, no uzh kak est':-). Esli budete pisat' --
pishite, luchshe vsego -- korotkie otchety, ne bol'she neskol'kih
kilobits. Chem conkretnei, tem luchshe. Posylaite vashi pis'ma na:

I would also greatly appreciate it if you supply me with any
presently OPERATIONAL e-mail address in CHECHNYA.
My best wishes,
--Alex Kaplan, INFO-RUSS coordinator

Hi, folks!
Nastupila noch' - pervaja noch' na Kavkaze, ne prinesshaja spada ogn'a.
Prodolzhajets'a boj v prigorode Groznogo - poselke Pervomajskij, kotoryj
polnost'ju razrushen.
Tem vremenem v zajavlenijah pravitel'stvennyh chinov - vazhnoje izmenenije:
vmesto slov "vojska ne imejut prikaza brat' Groznyj" oni stali govorit'
"vojska ne imejut prikaza brat' Groznyj do 15 dekabr'a".
V stolice Ingushetii Nazrani vojska segodn'a pristupili k prochesyvaniju
goroda i razoruzheniju milicii.
Ochen' hochets'a, chtoby v etu minutu ne byli zabyty nami tovarischi

Vcherashnij demarsh Borisa Fedorova v podderzhku EBN ne nashel podderzhki

skazal: "Ogromnoje bol'shinstvo russkih gotovy priznat' nezavisimost' CH.

odnim jablokovtsem i odnim kommunistom), nad gorodom slyshen rev
bombardirovschikov, no bombezhka (na 1 chas nochi po Moskve) ne

***********************************
With great regrets and appreciation for its public service,
I want to inform you that RFE/RL Research Institute will close
on December 23, 1994.
A daily digest, similar to the RFE/RL Daily Report, will commence
publication at the beginning of January 1995 and will be available

***********************************
OFFENSIVE ON GROZNY. The one Russian column approaching Grozny
continued using artillery and aerial power against Chechen
positions and residential areas as well as engaging Chechen forces
in tactical clashes, Russian and Western media reported. Moscow's
official toll of 16 Russians killed through 16 December is
generally deemed understated. The Russian side has yet to
acknowledge the Chechen civilian casualties, estimated to number
in the hundreds. One major official justification for the
intervention is to protect the physical security of the Chechens,
in their capacity as Russian Federation citizens, in connection
with the "inter-Chechen conflict." -- Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
RUSSIAN GENERAL: LAW AND HUMANITY ABOVE ORDERS. On 15 and 16
December Major-General Ivan Babichev, commander of one of the
three Russian columns moving toward Grozny, publicly announced
that he was halting the advance and would refuse to use force
against civilians. The military operation against Chechnya was
unlawful and inhumane, and any orders to attack the population or
residential areas would be "criminal," Babichev said. He made the
statements to Russian and Western journalists and in a
fraternizing encounter with a predominantly female Chechen peasant
crowd astride his column's path. He also strongly implied that a
nighttime attack by unidentified forces against his column had
probably been orchestrated by Russian security services in order
to provoke an attack on the Chechen. Officers from various
elements of the column told the press that they had prepared
letters of resignation from the military and would submit them if
ordered to attack. Comprised of several hundred tanks and armored
vehicles, elements of a motor rifle division and of the elite
Pskov paratrooper division, MVD units, and other elements,
Babichev's column had refrained from challenging civilian crowds
thwarting its advance through Ingushetia and Chechnya toward
Grozny. The column's head is still reported 35 kilometers from
Grozny and its rear still in Ingushetia. Another column seems to
be marking time on the Dagestan-Chechnya border. -- Vladimir
Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
ETHNIC RUSSIANS ALSO VICTIMS. Ethnic Russians, whose share in the
population of Grozny and environs remains substantial, are being
made to suffer the rigors of bombardment and blockade alongside
the indigenous Chechen population. Respected human rights
campaigner and Duma deputy Sergei Kovalev told RIA on 16 December
that "many of the industrial and residential buildings on the
outskirts of Grozny have been destroyed." Outside Grozny, hardest
hit by Russian forces has been the predominantly Russian-inhabited
town of Pervomayskoe. Ethnic Russians interviewed by Russian and
Western media express indignation at Moscow's use of force which
puts their lives at risk. Reports from the field also speak of the
emergence of a sense of solidarity among local ethnic Russians and
Chechens in the face of common adversity. There are no reports of
Chechen threats of any kind to local Russians. One of the
justifications for the Russian intervention had been the presumed
need to protect ethnic Russians in Chechnya. -- Vladimir Socor,

SHEVARDNADZE SUPPORTS RUSSIAN ACTION IN CHECHNYA. Russia must
defend its national interests and territorial integrity in
Chechnya, Eduard Shevardnadze told ITAR-TASS on 18 December.
Shevardnadze said Georgia supports a united and indivisible
Russia, because if Moscow will not curtail an "aggressive
separatism," it could lead to the disintegration of the Russian
Federation. Georgia, which has a joint border with Chechnya, has,
of course, a special reason to support military action against
Dudaev; it has its own separatist territory, Abkhazia, and
Shevardnadze hopes that the Chechen example will help legitimize
Georgian policy towards its secessionist state. -- Victor Yasmann,

---------------------------------------------------------------
CHECHNYA: MILITARY SITUATION. Having initially claimed that the
intervention in Chechnya was meant to defend the welfare of
Chechens caught in an "inter-Chechen" conflict and also to protect
local Russians, Moscow escalated military operations against
Chechnya on 19 and 20 December by subjecting the capital city
Grozny with its mixed Chechen-Russian population to air and
missile bombardment. Russian and Western media reports from the
field featured interviews with local ethnic Russians who observed
that it was Russia's military intervention that was placing them
in danger. Industrial plants, bridges, municipal utilities and
residential quarters were hit, along with a few military targets.
One Russian combined-arms column inched toward the northern
approaches to the city, shelling Chechen and Russian-inhabited
villages in its way. Weapons used included Uragan artillery
installations, Sukhoi-27 fighter-bombers, and helicopter gunships.
Although regularly stressing in other contexts that Chechnya's
residents were Russian Federation citizens entitled to full
protection under its laws, the Russian authorities avoided all
mention of casualties. Meanwhile, the other two Russian columns
were still 40 to 50 kilometers away, having allowed their progress
to be thwarted by protesting villagers in Ingushetia, Dagestan,
and Chechnya itself. Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
ARMY DEMORALIZED. In a speech to Russia's Federation Council and
at a news conference in Moscow, both on 15 December, Ingush
President Ruslan Aushev confirmed earlier reports that Russian
soldiers in the columns crossing Ingushetia en route to Chechnya
had often urged the protesters on the highway to disable the
military vehicles and had shown them simple ways to do that. The
eastern column was reportedly still mired on the border with
Dagestan; information about it remained sketchy, but Ekho Moskvy
reported from the field on 17 December that the column was not
about to move forward and had been partially disarmed. Besides
passivity and fraternization with civilians, Russian soldiers
began displaying the more brutal side of military demoralization.
In a widely reported incident partially witnessed by visiting
Russian Duma deputies, at least nine Ingush civilians were
murdered by Russian soldiers; an ethnic Bashkir soldier was also
killed by apparently drunk Russian fellow servicemen. (In earlier
incidents, another Russian soldier and the Ingush minister of
health were killed by drunken Russian soldiers, as were five
Ingush villagers.) Units approaching Grozny were for the first
time reported by correspondents to be committing violent
robberies. Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
MORE RUSSIAN TROOPS ON THEIR WAY? Radio Liberty reported on 19
December that some troops from the Ural Military District had been
ordered to Chechnya and that public protests were under way in
Sverdlovsk Oblast against the proposed deployment. The Black Sea
Fleet, for its part, command denied to Interfax the same day that
preparations were under way to send marine infantry troops to
Chechnya. Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
FURTHER ETHNIC CLEANSING FEARED. The most recent Russian official
statements and actions tend to reinforce fears expressed by the
Chechens since the beginning of the invasion that another
deportation may be in the offing. Those fears stem not only from
the memory of the 1944 deportation of Chechens and Ingush but also
from the 1992 ethnic cleansing of the Ingush from Prigorodnyi
Raion with Russian military support. In statements carried by
Russian TV and ITAR-TASS in recent days, Russia's Security Council
Secretary Oleg Lobov and Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for
Nationality Affairs Nikolai Egorov, among others, have called on
the population in areas controlled by Chechen authorities--which
at present still means most of Chechnya--to flee to safe areas
through corridors to be opened by Russian forces. Officials of the
Federal Migration Service told ITAR-TASS and Interfax on 19
December that accommodation had been ranged for refugees from
Chechnya in seven regions of central and southern Russia and that
an operational group had been set up to coordinate the action.
While "assuming the obligation to resettle the refugees and to
find accommodation for them in Russia in the future," the
officials acknowledged that most refugees were expected to wish to
remain close to their homeland until the emergency had passed, and
they gave assurances accordingly. The service said that nearly
9,000 refugees from Chechnya had crossed into Dagestan and nearly
5,000 into Ingushetia as of 19 December. But Russia's Ministry for
Emergency Situations disputed these figures, claiming that the
number of refugees was far higher. Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
FOUR MEN IN A BOAT. In a statement reported by Russian media on 18
December, Aleksandr Barkashov, the leader of the Russian National
Unity Party, which styles itself a fascist party, endorsed the
military intervention in Chechnya. During the preceding days the
ultranationalist leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky and the leader of the
pro-Soviet and nationalist All-Russian People's Party, Sergei
Baburin, also announced their support for the intervention and for
Yeltsin's decisions on Chechnya. Evidently taking into account the
unpopularity of intervention against Chechnya, Zhirinovsky and
Baburin had initially adopted a cautious position, with
Zhirinovsky even recommending restraint. They must since, however,
have concluded that they cannot afford politically to concede
primacy in matters concerning the preservation of Greater Russia
to Yeltsin. Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
MOSCOW EXPERT DOES NOT BELIEVE IN CAUCASIAN WAR. In the opinion of
Pavel Felgengauer, a military correspondent for Segodnya there is
no danger of an all-Caucasian war breaking out, as supporters of
Chechen President Dzhokhar Dudaev claim. Writing in the paper on
19 December, Felgengauer points out that Chechen forces are cut
off from the rest of the country and possible help from
neighboring republics by a blockade at the perimeter of Chechnya
and around the capital Grozny; this, he argues, makes the
situation very different from that faced by the Soviet army in
Afghanistan. Felgengauer also contends that Dudaev's supporters
differ considerably from those of the legendary Imam Shamil, who
led Chechen resistance to Russia in the last century. In Shamil's
time, Chechens were united around a strong religious leader, while
Chechnya today is splintered and disorganized. Felgengauer adds
that the leaders of neighboring Caucasian peoples are competing
with Dudaev rather than supporting him. Felgengauer concludes that
Dudaev's only hope is that the forces in Moscow protesting against
the Russian army's intervention in Chechnya will persuade the
president to change his policy, but he thinks this is unlikely.

CHECHNYA: MILITARY SITUATION. Russian forces, including spetsnaz
units, continued their slow advance toward Grozny from the north
against vastly inferior but, apparently, highly motivated Chechen
forces. Russian fighter-bombers and helicopter gunships attacked
both military and civilian targets in Grozny and several nearby
villages. In Grozny, the Russians continued showing a preference
for nighttime bombing. Western agencies cited Russian officers on
the ground as saying that the air force was using recently
developed bombs of higher accuracy; this was corroborated by
military analyst Pavel Felgengauer on NTV on 18 December,
crediting Russia's military industry for the achievement. Chechen
defenders downed two helicopters before reporting in the night of
20 to 21 December that their air defense had run out of
ammunition. Reports of violent robberies committed by Russian
soldiers were indirectly confirmed by the Internal Affairs
Ministry's spokesman in Moscow who said at a briefing, as cited by
Interfax on 20 December, that "armed bandits in Russian Army
uniform are on the move, attacking refugees and looting." Vladimir
Socor, RFE/RL Inc.
KOVALEV IN GROZNY. The veteran human rights campaigner and Duma
deputy Sergei Kovalev, who is also chairman of a human rights
commission attached to the Russian Presidency, has spent the last
week in Ingushetia and Chechnya and the last few days in Grozny in
order to assess the human costs of the invasion. In a statement to
the Russian and foreign public, reported by Radio Liberty on 20
December, Kovalev said the intervention in Chechnya was no longer
Russia's internal affair, given the massive loss of life. On 19
December Kovalev ascertained that there had been at least 43
civilian deaths as a result of that day's bombing of Grozny, Radio
Liberty's correspondent reported from the scene. Kovalev, who has
opposed the intervention all along, released to the media on 20
December the text of a letter to Boris Yeltsin appealing yet again
for an end to the bloodshed, for renouncing official
misinformation, and for political dialogue with Chechen President
Dzhokhar Dudaev (whom Russian democrats consider legitimate).
Kovalev noted in his letter that he was being denied access to
Yeltsin (as he had been when still hoping to sway the president
prior to the invasion). In messages to Yeltsin made public during
the preceding days, Kovalev had in vain drawn attention to the
wanton destruction caused by Russian troops in the villages of
Osinskaya and Pervomaisk. Democratic deputy Viktor Kurochkin gave
an eyewitness account of the same events to the Duma, NTV reported
on 18 December. Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL Inc.
NO "MINIMAL BLOODSHED." On Russian Radio on 19 December the head
of the Afghanistan Invalid Veterans' Fund and secretary of the
Chamber of Public Organizations attached to the Russian
Presidency, Vasilii Sadovnikov, dismissed the notion that there
could be "minimal bloodshed" in Chechnya, giving a graphic
description of the carnage he had witnessed in Afghanistan and now
again in Chechnya. He, too, appealed to Yeltsin to stop the
military intervention. But Yeltsin's adviser Georgii Satarov
appeared to give the current official view when he told Ostankino
TV that civilian casualties are inevitable in an operation of this
kind (which he himself supported). He blamed it on the troops'
"front psychosis, that's a known thing...there is no escaping it."
Foreign Ministry official Vyacheslav Bakhmin took a similar line
on "unavoidable" violations of human rights of civilians,
including the right to life, by Russian troops in Chechnya.
Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL Inc.
WAVE OF REFUGEES. Russia's Minister for Emergency Situations
Sergei Shoigu told a media briefing in Moscow on 20 December that
some 100,000 people had fled from Chechnya in the preceding 10
days, Interfax reported. The figure is eight times as high as the
estimate offered the preceding day by Russia's Migration Service
(see the Daily Report of 19 December). According to Shoigu, 64,000
refugees are in Ingushetia, some 30,000 in Dagestan, 3,000 in
Vladikavkaz, and 2,000 to 3,000 in Stavropol Krai. Russia's
Federal Counterintelligence Service Director Sergei Stepashin,
Deputy Prime Minister Nikolai Egorov--who is also Yeltsin's
special representative for Chechnya--and other officials continue
urging the population to flee for its life and accept relocation
by the Migration Service, raising fears of another deportation.
The refugees are unable to flee to either Georgia or Azerbaijan,
as, under a decree issued on 20 December, the Russian government
has reinforced its troops on the border with those countries, and
banned cross-border movement by civilians, vehicles of all types,
and goods in either direction. Radio Mayak's political commentator
observed on 20 December that, "apparently, the processes of
willing exodus or deportation have already begun. Russia's forces
have chosen the tactic of displacing the population. The 400,000
inhabitants of Grozny are being urged to leave the city, but where
are they to go? Where are they going to push Chechnya's population
in general?" Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL Inc.
OCCUPATION PLANNING UNDER WAY. In connection with the plan to
introduce temporary direct rule from Moscow in Chechnya, senior
Russian officials have told the media in recent days that they are
in the process of selecting Chechen figures for posts in the new
structure. For the top position reserved for a Chechen native,
Federation Council Chairman Vladimir Shumeiko has endorsed Doku
Zavgaev, Izvestiya reported on 20 December. Zavgaev was the CPSU
Central Committee first secretary in Checheno-Ingushetia until
1991; he supported the August 1991 putsch and was ousted by
Dudaev. More recently Zavgaev has been employed in Yeltsin's
Presidential Administration, and he supports the Russian
intervention. According to Moskovskie novosti (no. 63, 11-18
December), Zavgaev is a member of the most influential clan in
Nadterechnyi Raion, which has served as a base for Dudaev's
opponents and the Russian intervention; Zavgaev's brothers are
reported to play a major role in that raion. Under the headline
"Puppeteers in Search of Puppets," the same analysis did not rule
out the candidacy of Umar Avtorkhanov, the nominal leader of the
Provisional Council created and armed by Moscow in Nadterechnyi
Raion to oppose Dudaev. Another claimant is Salambek Khadzhiev,
head of a shadowy "Chechen national salvation government"
described by Interfax on 19 December as slated to form the
territorial organs of power under the direct administration to be
formed by Nikolai Egorov. In Izvestiya of 20 December, the head of
the Chechen Elders' Council, Said-Akhmed Azizov, insisted that "we
have our own state with its organs, and any attempts to saddle us
with outsiders will lead not to peace but to war." Vladimir Socor,
RFE/RL Inc.
OIL PRODUCTION FALLS. Output of crude oil in 1994 fell by 11
percent in comparison with last year from 354.6 million tons to
314 million, according to preliminary data from the Fuel and
Energy Ministry cited by Interfax and Western agencies on 19
December. Output is expected to decline still further in 1995 to
295 million tons. But while oil production has been falling since
the late 1980s, exports have grown. In the first 11 months of
1994, 87.8 million tons were exported outside the former USSR, a
15 percent increase over the same period in 1993. Penny Morvant,

Folks,
Another day has started in Grozny, another night has brought even
more awful bombing of civilians who are being killed by even
more sophisticated bombs of mass destruction. The city is being
bombed at nights to enhance the terror on the civilian population.
How much longer shall we witness this crime against humanity in
silence?
The U.S. government ignores cries, blood, and death of Chechen
civilians because it is shy to irritate Russia and president Eltsin
who has become another bloody dictator after breaking every law in
his country. Russian government is deaf to the cries of its people,
as it has always been in the past.
LET"EM HEAR US !!!!
Please, those of us who are U.S. citizen and who care, call your
congressmen, send E-mail to the president

Hi, folks!
Poka zheleznyj kulak zavis nad Groznym, a bombezhki gorodskih kvartalov
stali privychnymi, pojavilos' vremja pogovorit' na neskol'ko obschuju temu.
Chert, tol'ko chto uslyshal srochnoe: komandovanie ob'javilo, chto s
polunochi prioritetnoj tsel'ju ob'javljaetsja gostinitsa "Kavkaz", i
predlozhilo zhurnalistam (a oni vse tam zhivut) ee pokinut'. Ofitsial'noe
obosnovanie - v gostinitse zhivut boeviki, i ona stala voennym
ob'ektom.
Itak: neskol'ko slov o pravovom aspekte situatsii. Nastorazhivaet, chto
obsuzhdaja tezis "territorial'noj tselostnosti Rossii" i printsip
nevmeshatel'stva vo vnutrennie dela, nashi zapadnye sosedi kak budto
zabyli o Tret'ej korzine Hel'sinkskogo soglashenija, o tom, chto na
prava cheloveka i gumanitarnye voprosy ne rasprostranjaetsja printsip
suvereniteta v polnom ob'eme. Takim obrazom, demokraticheskie
pravitel'stva imejut pravo trebovat', chtoby nenarushenie prav cheloveka
imelo prioritet pri vypolnenii zadachi zaschity territorial'noj
tselostnosti (skazhem, oni sverhaktivno pol'zujutsja etim pravom v
ex-Jugoslavii). A v moral'nom smysle oni eto delat' objazany (nu, na to
oni i politiki, chtoby v udobnyj moment zabyvat' o morali). No, kak
politiki, oni tozhe sovershajut oshibku. Priverzhennost' Zapada
(iskljuchitel'no na slovah) printsipu prioriteta prav cheloveka sniskala
zapadnym demokratijam ogromnyj avtoritet v Rossii i oblegchila obschuju
pereorientatsiju russkoj kul'tury (vesternizatsiju), bez kotoroj ne mozhet
byt' prochnym nikakoe partnerstvo. Kogda mirazh rasseivaetsja,
blizorukij Zapad riskuet poluchit' sebe vraga v Rossiii - v russkom
narode, chto opasnee, chem imet' vragom lish' russkoe gosudarstvo.
Pravovoj konflikt printsipa nerushimosti granits i prava natsij na
samoopredelenie dolzhen reshat'sja ishodja iz konkretnoj situatsii - i vo
vsjakom sluchae, ni odna iz storon ne obladaet iznachal'noj juridicheskoj
i moral'noj pravotoj. Otsjuda sleduet, chto nalichie u Rossii pravovyh
osnovanij dlja kontrolja nad Chechnej ne opravdyvaet primenenija sily: eto
PRAVOVOJ SPOR, a ne spor prava i bezzakonija. A reshenie pravovogo
spora siloj bezuslovno zapreschaetsja mezhdunarodnym pravom. Razumeetsja,
russkoe pravitel'stvo imelo pravo i dazhe objazannost' blokirovat'
opasnost' dlja porjadka i zakona na sopredel'nyh territorijah
adekvatnymi opasnosti merami, t.e. usileniem politsejskogo kontrolja za
dvizheniem ljudej i osobenno gruzov (oruzhija, to est') cherez granitsu.
Etogo ne delalos'.
Kstati, pochemu?
Delo v tom, chto Chechnja igrala bol'shuju rol' v planah moskovskih
geopolitikov i strategov. Ogromnyj arsenal byl peredan Dudaevu
Moskvoj nedarom - on poshel na vooruzhenie tajnoj armii Konfederatsii
narodov Kavkaza - musul'manskoj boevoj druzhiny, pod rukovodstvom
Moskvy unichtozhivshej nezavisimost' Gruzii. Kogda Rossija reshila
podderzhat' (ne vsegda zhe byt' na storone imperij!) svobodoljubivyj
narod Abhazii v ego bor'be za nezavisimost' ot Gruzii, ona
stolknulas' s problemoj. V otlichie ot chechentsev, abhazy sostavljali v
svoej avtonomii men'shinstvo (okolo 15% protiv 55% gruzin).
Demokraticheskie organy vlasti, sposobnye vyrazhat' volju naroda k
nezavisimosti, sozdat' udalos' (pri pomoschi aparteida - naznachennye
esche kommunistami etnicheski abhazskie vlasti avtonomii prinjali
izbiratel'nyj zakon, po kotoromu golosa imeli raznyj ves v
zavisimosti ot natsional'nosti izbiratelja), no vot s voennoj siloj
bylo huzhe - vojna ne vybory, nel'zja prosto provozglasit', chto odin
abhaz pobivaet chetyreh gruzin. Razumeetsja, russkie generaly
komandovali abhazskoj armiej, intendanty vooruzhali, artilleristy
streljali, letchiki bombili zhilye kvartaly Suhumi (tak chto Kavkazu ne
vpervoj), i nakonets lichno g-n E vmeshalsja s edinstvenno izvestnym emu
voennym navykom - predatel'stvom (pod ego chestnoe slovo russkie
razoruzhili obe armii, posle chego na bezoruzhnyh gruzin poehali tanki
abhazov, chisljaschiesja hranjaschimisja na russkih skladah - i bystro vzjali
Suhumi). No vse zhe nuzhna byla i pehota - i v etoj roli vystupili
konfederaty. A tak kak im s oruzhiem nado bylo perejti granitsu RF s
Gruziej - o kakom kontrole v etom regione mogla idti rech'?
Kstati: komandoval shturmom Suhumi rossijskij general, zverstvo
kotorogo nad gruzinami potrjaslo dazhe samih konfederatov, i sejchas
sredi zaschitnikov Groznogo hodit mif, chto imenno etot general
komanduet shturmom goroda. Krasivyj i strashnyj mif!
Naposledok neskol'ko slov ob informatsionnom oblike vojny. Posle togo,
kak KGB (ja uzh ih po starinke budu) provel kampaniju zapugivanija
zhurnalistov (prosachivaniem informatsii, chto vojska jakoby imejut
sekretnyj prikaz raspravit'sja so vsemi, kogo najdut v Groznom) i
prizyva E k nim pokinut' gorod pochti vse zapadnye i bol'shinstvo
russkih zhurnalistov uehali. V ugrozy, esche do poslednih (sm. abzats 2),
verilos' legko: iz 34 sluchaev izbienij, ograblenij i obstrelov
zhurnalistov 34 soversheny russkoj storonoj. Vse eto privelok dvojakomu
effektu: v to vremja kak, skazhem, na CNN prosto umen'shilos' kolichestvo
chechenskih materialov, u rossijskih gazet i TV izmenilas' tonal'nost':
svobodnoe mesto stali zapolnjat' agitmaterialy Ministerstva Pravdy
(tipa: boeviki kovarno streljajut po soldatam i dazhe vertoletam) i
krokodilovy slezy po russkim v Chechne. V odnoj i toj zhe rechi
nachal'nika migratsionnoj sluzhby g-zhi Regent (neverojatno sytaja i
"upakovannaja" dama) govorilos' (1)"umen'shilos' kolichestvo russkih
bezhentsev, eto svidetel'stvuet, chto Dudaev stroit iz nih zhivoj schit" i
(2)"problema russkih bezhentsev oslozhnjaetsja tem, chto v Groznom uzhe
ostalis' tol'ko starye, bol'nye ili ochen' bednye ljudi, prakticheski ne

pokazyvaet, chto dazhe neozhidannyj vsplesk ih nezavisimosti legko mozhet
byt' prokontrolirovan i sveden na net.
Etot tekst ja razreshaju pomeschat' v telekonferentsii (eto ja k tomu, chto
prosja ob etom v predyduschih, ja ne ozhidal, chto eto budet sdelano bez

CHECHNYA: RESISTANCE MOUNTING. According to ITAR-TASS on 21
December, a joint session of Russia's government, Security
Council, and Presidential staff that day concluded that Chechen
resistance was "sharply increasing." It found that the defenders
of Grozny were being reinforced and were moving outward from the
city center to ward off Russian forces. Moreover, "guerrilla
groups and snipers are active everywhere. Losses among the
[Russian] servicemen have increased." A communique from invasion
headquarters in Mozdok, on the same day, also reported by
ITAR-TASS noted "a significant exacerbation of the situation in
the last few days," as Russian units "are repeatedly being fired
upon." Moreover, "Chechen fighters are laying mines and using
Afghan-type hit-and-run tactics." It also reported that groups of
outside "mercenaries" were joining the Chechen forces. In what
appears to be the most intense engagement thus far, 11 members of
a Russian "reconnaissance" (spetsnaz?) unit were killed and five
went missing in fighting for the village of Petropavlovka to the
north of Grozny, a Russian communique said. The Russian side has
not updated its casualty toll since 15 December when it offered an
implausibly low figure of 17 killed. Meanwhile, Russian air
bombardment of Grozny and shelling of villages continued,
increasingly described by Western agencies as "terror" bombing
apparently aimed at persuading the population to leave. With the
water, heating, electricity, and food supplies in Grozny severely
disrupted, a growing number of people are fleeing the city. Ethnic
Russian residents, not having relatives in the countryside, tend
to remain behind, exposed to the hardships of a war among whose
stated aims was that of protecting them. Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL,
Inc.
YELTSIN ADDRESSES THE CHECHENS. For the first time since the
beginning of the invasion, and apparently prompted by the
developing military quagmire, Russian President Boris Yeltsin
addressed the people of Chechnya on 21 December. Restating the
demand for the disarmament of Chechen "unlawful formations" (but
notably dropping the standard adjective "bandit"), Yeltsin held
them responsible for "the killing of fellow-countrymen--Chechens,
Russians, and other nationalities"--and insisted that Russian
forces engaged in Chechnya "are not endangering the peaceful
population." These remarks are so at variance with the situation
in the field that they seem to bear out Sergei Kovalev's point in
his open letter to Yeltsin (see Daily Report of 21 December) about
"false and mendacious information" being supplied to him. Yeltsin
went on to pledge that "the deportation of the Chechen people will
never be repeated under any circumstances"--a formulation that
even if sincere and well meaning will remind Chechens about
Yeltsin's September vow that there will be "no military
intervention under any circumstances." Yeltsin pledged to provide
economic relief, without mentioning the destruction being wrought
by Russian forces, and to "guarantee all the civil rights and
liberties" on Chechnya's territory and to restore "local bodies of
power," without mentioning his own recent decree on the
introduction of direct rule from Moscow in Chechnya. He predicted
that Chechnya "will again become an equal subject of the Russian
Federation." Vladimir Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
CIVILIAN MORALE HIGH DESPITE LOSSES. Following an appeal by
President Dzhokhar Dudaev, on 20 December despite wintry weather
at least 100,000 Chechen joined a human chain on the highway from
Grozny to Dagestan to protest the Russian military intervention
and to reaffirm the goal of independence. The crowds held placards
condemning the killing of civilians by Russian forces and calling
for a free Chechnya. Some placards chastised international
indifference to the situation. Anecdotal evidence reported by
Western agencies indicated that ethnic Russians from Grozny
participated in the chain. The inspiration for the action
undoubtedly stemmed from Dudaev's experience in the Baltic States,
where such demonstrations were organized during the final stage of
Soviet rule. As commander of a Soviet air force division based in
Estonia, Dudaev had shown sympathy for the Baltic independence
movements. The mass response to his appeal belies the assumption,
which permeates Russian official discussions of Chechnya, that
most of the population opposes Dudaev. On the same day, Dudaev
appealed to Chechens not to blame Russian residents for the
actions of the Russian military. Although the local Russians are
by all accounts unmolested, Moscow claims that they are in
imminent danger. On 20 and 21 December, agencies reported the
arrival of poorly equipped but determined Chechen volunteers from
the countryside to reinforce the defense of Grozny. Vladimir
Socor, RFE/RL, Inc.
MOSCOW WARNS AZERBAIJAN, UKRAINE OVER VOLUNTEERS IN CHECHNYA. On
21 December the Russian government press service issued a
statement, reported by Interfax and ITAR-TASS, condemning alleged
atrocities committed in Chechnya by mercenary groups composed of
volunteers from Azerbaijan, Ukraine, and Afghanistan, two hundred
of whom are reportedly headquartered at the Kavkaz hotel in
Grozny. The continued participation of such groups in hostilities
could, the statement warned, "complicate Russia's relations with
the countries they come from." In the case of both Azerbaijan and
Ukraine, the volunteers in question are politically aligned with
radical opposition groups. Whether the Afghan contingent is that
recruited last year by Heidar Aliev to fight in Nagorno-Karabakh,
where a cease-fire has been in force for six months, is not clear.

Dear IR-folks,
Below is another excerpt from RFE/RL Daily Report No. 241,
22 December 1994, on "reopened" dissident movement and samizdat in Russia.
I just want to make a little comment on the report below by Julia Wishnevsky,
an old dissy herself, who is usually well informed and write good reports.
She wrote "all four participants in the 1968 demonstration against the Soviet
invasion of Czechoslovakia who are still alive--Larisa Bogoraz, Pavel Litvinov,
Nataliya Gorbanevskaya, and Viktor Fainberg --have signed a petition
condemning the Russian intervention in Chechnya". It is good to know that
my own instincts (I am talking here about Chechnya) are still the same as
that of the people whom I used to know personally for many years, to know
both as brilliant and talanted individuals and as bravest and honest to
earth dissidents, pioneers in open opposition to the sov-system, people
with whom I had had an honor of having my signature to appear on the same
protest letters 28 years ago and later.
It is so good to hear their names and voices again, to know they are
the same brave and outspoken dissies, soul and heart... The only thing
is that, thanks God, they are not "all ... participants ... still alive".
There were seven of them at that demonstration in Red Square in 1968. Vadik
Delone died in Paris about 10 years ago; and unfortunately at this point I
don't know anything about Kostya Babitsky, but the 7-th demonstrator,
Volodya Dremlyuga, it quite alive in NJ (at least as of an hour ago when I
spoke with him on the phone:-). Good for him; after 6 years spent by him in
the worst sov-camps, he can use some extra time on this earth... It is my
pleasure to let those of you who remember my posting about "7 in Red Square"
know that the rumors of him not being alive are a bit exaggerated:-)

CHECHNYA: SOVIET DISSIDENT MOVEMENT REVISITED. The invasion of
Chechnya has revived forms of activity typical of dissidents in
the Brezhnev era, many of whom had hitherto supported President
Yeltsin. Apart from the veteran human rights activists Sergei
Kovalev and Mikhail Molostvov, whose actions in Grozny have been
covered in the Daily Report, as many as 17 former political
prisoners signed the appeal protesting against the invasion
(Express-Khronika, 16 December 1994). Elena Bonner, a founding
member of the Moscow Helsinki group and the widow of the Nobel
prize winner Andrei Sakharov, declared in an open letter that
Yeltsin could not remain Russia's president if the invasion were
to continue. Finally, all four participants in the 1968
demonstration against the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia who
are still alive--Larisa Bogoraz, Pavel Litvinov, Nataliya
Gorbanevskaya, and Viktor Fainberg--have signed a petition
condemning the Russian intervention in Chechnya. Since no Russian
newspaper has published their petition so far, it is circulated in
samizdat form among Moscow human rights activists. Julia

Folks:
Here is a copy of the letter I sent by e-mail to Clinton and Gore. Even
though the probability of such letters having an effect is low, it cannot
hurt. I think it is a good idea, for those who share my point of view and
are ready to spend several minutes, to send such letters by e-mail
individually.
Unlike Maxim Poliashenko, I do not think that only US citizens
have the right to do so. If you have an opinion, give it, whichever your
status is. You are at least as qualified as any US sovietologist.

Dear Mr President:
as a US citizen and as a former Soviet citizen, I urge you to stop
considering the situation in Chechnya as a a Russian internal affair. This is
a major event for the future of not only the Caucasus region, but of the world
as a whole.
During the 16 years that I have been living in the West, the
incapability of the US government to evaluate events in Russia in their
full context and on time, as well as the experts' failure to correctly predict
their consequences, has become anecdotic. However, it is not too late at
the moment to use the whole weight of the US political and economic strength
in order to try preventing Russia from becoming a threat for humanity once
again.
The current events mark a threshold in the short history of the post-
Soviet regime in Russia. For the first time, the government's troops are openly
killing innocent people for purely imperialist (moreover, nonrealistic)
purposes. Personally, I cannot any more feel different about the current
Russian government than I felt about the Soviet regime. There is no legality
to a government that murders civilians, whether or not such a government has
come to being in a democratic fashion. I would like to remind you that Hitler
came to power democratically.
It is important to understand that what is happening now has nothing
to do with any inter- or intra-ethnic conflict, or with the question whether
or not the right of the Chechen people to self-determination should be
recognized. The situation, complex in the past, has become crystal clear.
The lives being destroyed now are not the price to pay for saving other lives
(even if one recognizes to a government the right to decide who will die
instead of whom). The children killed by Russian bombs in Grozny died simply
to satisfy someone's criminal ambitions.
The so-called East-West conflict has often been misrepresented as a
conflict between world powers. This is false. The Soviet regime was a
worse enemy of its people than of the US as a state. The current government
has become MY enemy - it has shown that it would easily kill me or you or
whosoever if our house happens to stand on its way.
The political situation is unstable in Russia. It seems that only
some 20 per cent of the population are in favor of this war. This means that
an external influence may help shifting the balance and stop the bloodshed.
I urge you to stop any governmental help to the Russian government.
Stop dealing with criminals!
Yours sincerely,
Boris Velikson, Ph.D.

Hi, folks!
Vestej s fronta nemnogo i oni obychnye. Esche vchera arestovali i privlekli

Vchera g-n E v teleobraschenii k narodu povtoril slova, skazannye v

podkupleny chechentsami. V razvitie etoj mysli segodnja ob`javleno o
sozdanii pravitel'stvennoj informatsionnoj komissii, ukazanija
kotoroj budut objazatel'nymi dlja gosudarstvennyh sredstv massovoj

bol'shinstva radiostantsij). V uslovijah Rossii eto oznachaet
prakticheskuju otmenu svobody slova.
V etoj rechi takzhe vnov' soderzhalis' napadki na Sergeja Kovaleva,
pahodjaschegosja v Groznom s pravozaschitnoj missiej vo glave gruppy
deputatov Gosdumy.
Usilija vlastej po ustanovleniju kontrolja nad pressoj dajut
znachitel'nyj effekt: poslednie dva dnja prakticheski ne pojavljaetsja
materialov, napisannyh s pozitsij sochuvstvija chechenskoj storone

posle okonchanija krizisa, a budut ostavleny postojanno. "Za kazhdym

podrazdelenie, kotoroe budet uchastvovat' sovmestno s militsiej v

Help me find a job in Moscow!
I am moving to Moscow in two weeks. Just up and going.
I am moving for love but I have no warm garments and
need to find employment there as soon as possible.
No doubt I will get some good leads when I arrive but
this is a scary and MAJOR life change and would prefer
to get things rolling now.
Hope you dont mind my asking you for help.
The task of making contacts there is daunting.
It will be appreciated more than I can express if you forward
my resume to a potential employer there. (If you think you can do
that, please, drop me a line, and I'll send you my resume.)
Likewise - if you know of any individuals I should contact
before departing.
Actually - ANY help finding employment there will be significant.
My background is in Cosmetic Sales and Sales Management.
I run a Psychology oriented BBS from this Macintosh.
Thanks for your kindness.

Posting-Date: Thu, 29 Dec 1994 04:36:00 -0500 (EST)
Status: O
Hello, Eveyone!
I need an urgent legal advice in family law. The situation is
the following. My wife and I are getting divorced (sorry to
bother everyone with a family drama), and we both currently
live in the U.S. We are both Russian citizens. I came here 3
and 1/2 years ago as a student (F-1 visa) and she and our
daughter joined me a year later (F-2 visas). Later on I
started working for the World Bank and got a G-4 visa (special
status, which does have certain priviledges) for all of us.
Now we have not lived together for 7 months and since then my
wife changed her visa to F-1 (I think) as she now goes to
school. All these visas are temporary, and only G-4 can have
some special strange status. According to the Russian law,
Russian citizens have to get divorced at the place of
permanent residense of one of the spouses, which is in Moscow.
My question are:
Can we get divorced in the U.S.?
Does the court in the U.S. have jurisdiction over us (we lived
in our (different!) states for more than six months which
enables us to pursue legal actions in these status)?
Maybe the court has jurisdiction over child support, custody
and visitation, but cannot divorce us? It is very important
to me as my wife thinks that if we get divorced I stop being a
father to our 6-year old daughter. She created hundrends of
problems in this respect. I love my child and know that she
needs me as well as her mother. Only in the U.S., where I can
actually impose (!!!) the decision of the court, I can be an
effective father to my daughter. Also, only here the court
can mandate certain things to help my wife deal with the
situation.
Is there a lawyer or anyone with a legal exprtise (I am sure I
am not the first one to have this problem) who can help me
clarify this matter? This can be a person anywhere in the
world, as long as the advice is well-based, but my location
preference would be the U.S.
Once again, sorry to bother all of you with the family drama,
but some things happen in this life. I would appreciate all
the help that I can get.
Sincerely,
Pavel Karelin

Hi, dear fiends!
I guess, now it is quite busy time for the countries of Western democracies. At
least it is so now in England, in he time between Christmas and New Year
(periods when even railway and subway are shut down) - everybody shopping,
popping in to the friends, inviting them, etc.
Apparently all in the West are gradually forgetting Chechens fighting with huge
Soviet-like war machine making the "example" for other nations of Russia (or
FSU as well?) as g-n E (love this abbreviation :-) without any hesitation said.
When Gorbachov send tanks to Vilnus everybody in Russia understood that next
step will be tanks in Moscow. It seems to be a case now too. What is worse is
that media lies again like in the old time. My relatives in Moscow tell us that
they again have to look for the information between newslines and extract it
from rumors.
The worst stuff is that it looks like if g-n E will end Chechens with bombs and
army (now army again wants to draft junior 2-3d year University students), he
will have end up with clear hands as for the West and also within Russia. But
next time tanks will be shooting not on the Parlament, not somewhere in
Chechnya - they will be shooting on Russians.
In one of the previous info-russ-mailings there were some addresses for USA
sitizens and non-sitizens to write to. I think it would be very useful if those
of us who are sitizens or rezidents of Western countries will write to local
goverment officials or influental organizations (i.e. churches, academic
organizations cooperating with Russia such as ISF, media, etc.). Those who are
Russians might write to Russian Government and Parlament (I can't escape doubts
regarding sense of that, but, if the organisation on the Old Square is the
same, every letter will count :-).
Therefore, if there are some ideas regarding addresses in Russia - surface,
e-mails, faxes (and Great Britain, where I am now), I will appresiate them. You
can write directly to me, I will digest the mailings and post them back on the
net.
