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.

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.
