Iraq: Explosion in Moscow
The Iraq crisis is eliciting heated words from both Yeltsin and Duma leaders as they confront each other on a wide variety of domestic issues. This explains Russia's hardest line in support of Iraq since the Kuwait War. The growing domestic conflict and instability in the Kremlin may impel the leadership to "irrational" confrontation with the West, in order to prove that they can take a firm stand. Russia may be turning into a rabid tiger.

Why Russia (Likely) Won't Go To War Over Kosovo
Despite dire warnings from the Kremlin and elsewhere of world war over Kosovo, and despite my own un-Pollyannish view of Russia's potential, I do not believe World War III will start in the Balkans in the near future. I believe this both because Russia has much less stake in the Balkans than in the Caspian, and also because the Russian state is much more stable than it has been in some time. Even the top Communist member of the Cabinet has attacked proposals for "rethinking" Russian military doctrine in the face of NATO action in Yugoslavia. This is more a matter of Russia maintaining some sort of balance of power in the world by siding with America's enemies.

An Open Letter to Premier Sergei Kiriyenko
Premier Sergei Kiriyenko needs to keep in mind, amid the financial crisis, that unpaid workers and pensioners are creditors too, and poor Russian citizens to boot. Not just this crisis, but also Russia's situation in general and President Boris Yeltsin's bad political and worse physical health, leave Kiriyenko in a unique position to make all the difference.

Crisis As Usual
Russia's current financial crisis, a slow downward slide rather than a cataclysmic fall, is becoming a microcosm of Russia in general, lurching from crisis to crisis due mainly to political and legal instability. Watch the changes in Russia's tax administration and implementation for a possible turnaround - not just in raising more money but, more importantly, raising more confidence in the government.

Eye of the Storm?
Moscow seems to be in the eye of a political storm, with issues ranging from tax/pension arrears to taxes, possible spending cuts, privatizations and START-2 ratification to be tackled soon. The Communists may be gearing up for a confrontation with the government, especially after summer recess.

Feature: The Military in Russian Politics - Then and Now
The Soviet military had an important but constrained role in politics. Now, the military has serious grievances: wage arrears, lack of maintenance and serious cutbacks. If they continue to have reason to believe that the leadership does not care about them and that they cannot count on the leadership, they may intervene...with serious consequences.

Lebed's Opponent Crashed and So Has the Market
Lebed's victory in Krasnoyarsk comes at a time when Russia is facing an economic and financial crisis: the ruble is falling, the stock market is collapsing, no one even bid for Rosneft, interest rates are skyrocketing, inflation is a major threat and unpaid miners are in strike in force.

Mayhem in Moscow: 1997 in Review
1997 in review: poor tax collections, media/banking empires, and even Chubais the putative reformer doesn't have clean hands. Chubais has suffered serious reverses; many of his allies are now gone in the wake of a book-publishing scandal, and he has definitely lost some standing. Centralization of media and banking is possible in the near future.

Kiriyenko's "landslide" confirmation by the Duma on the third vote seems to show that Yeltsin now dominates the Russian political scene. Given that he's ill much of the time and the new premier is a political nonentity, that's not so hot. Meanwhile, the upcoming presidential election in 2000 is occupying many people's minds. Watch the gubernatorial election in Krasnoyarsk.

The Scope, Meaning, Causes and Implications of Political Instability
When trying to understand politics, I emphasize matters of political credibility. Leaders who are not perceived as being bound by their word will suffer - and their nations and possibly other nations as well will suffer with them - in many ways. Most dramatically, leaders may feel forced to adopt policies very far from the norm and not subject to any retraction - to become rabid tigers - just to show that they do mean what they say. These facts give considerable cause for concern but not resignation regarding Russia.

Yeltsin and Kiriyenko v. the Duma: Collision Course in Moscow
President Boris Yeltsin and Acting Premier Sergei Kiriyenko are preparing for a showdown with the Duma over Kiriyenko's nomination for premier. He's already been rejected twice, but Yeltsin insists on putting his name forth one more time and then dissolving the Duma and holding new Duma elections if it demurs. The anti-Kiriyenko party leaders insist that the president has no right to nominate someone more than once for premier, and so the president would have to nominate someone else, and wait until three separate people had been rejected before dissolving the Duma. This is a serious trial of strength between Yeltsin and the Duma. If Kiriyenko is confirmed after all, his program promises important changes in Russia.

Yeltsin's Condition (Political and Otherwise) - SPECIAL REPORT
Boris Yeltsin's illness and general or partial incapacity and the resulting instability are beginning to play havoc in Russia. The upcoming presidential elections in 2000 are already influencing events, as well as Duma elections in 1999 (if not this year). Given these facts, it is very good that Yeltsin chose not to run for a third term, especially since it would challenge Constitutional norms.
