Yeltsin will tell his woes to Bush in Washington Summit
MOSCOW. June 14: Pre-sident Boris Yeltsin will bring his domestic problems with him when he meets this week with President Bush, reports AP.
He will be trying to convince his US hosts that he has only cooled, not frozen, economic reform in Russia. And he may be asked to explain a flare-up fn hfs feud with former Soviet (’resident Mi khail S Gorbachev who was given a hero's welcome in the United States last month despite his profound unpopularity in Russia.
Yeltsin's mission is to secure US help in nailing down 24 billion dollar in Western aid and credits to prevent a social explosion that could endanger Russia's infant democracy and market economy.
But to get that aid, he will need to show that he is still committed to reform and democracy, and able to bring about both amid the confusion of post-Soviet Russia.
"By no means will I allow a retreat on eco nomic reforms." Yeltsin said in one of a series of interviews on the eve of his arrival in Washington on Monday.
fn an effort to demonstrate that his goal is to reform rather than to rule Russia. Yeltsin said on May 27 that he would not seek a sec ond five-year presidential term in 1996
And to help argue the case, Yeltsin is taking with him Vice Premier Yegor Calder, the architect of the reforms.
Yeltsin said he hopes his meetings with Bush in Washington and other Western leaders in Munich next month "will finally break the knot" holding back the multibillion-dollar governmental commitment that Yeltsin says will lead to even greater private foreign investment in Russia.
But the Russian president "is going to have some problems." said one of Yeltsin's biggest Western boosters. US Ambassador Bob Strauss. There should be some tough negotiations," Strauss predicted fn a session with reporters a week before the summit.
Western economists are concerned because Yeltsin has felt forced to slow his reforms, which have sent the Inflation rate to more than 300 per cent so far this year.
Within the past two weeks. Yeltsin has balked at lifting controls on energy prices and is maintaining subsidies to thousands of state-owned factories and businesses that, in a market economy, would go bankrupt, throwing millions out of work.
To meet rising wage demands, the government is flooding the country with newly printed rubies — a step that could spark infla-
tion and jeopardize the promise of Western credits.
Yeltsin and his aides explain that they are changing their tactics, not their goals. They say they arc trying to avoid soaring fuel prices or high unemployment that could cause the widcscalc unrest that some experts have been predicting since the reforms began last January.
Today, people still support the reforms, but If we go beyond a critical point, well set off a genera] disaster," Yeltsin said last week.
In another sign of slackening pace of reform. Yeltsin appointed veteran economic manager Vladimir Shumelko to a post equal to that of the reformist Gaidar.
The appointment of Shumelko was viewed in part as a concession to the Russian legislature. which has balked at passing key elements of the reform programme, such as allowing widescalc dccollecttvlzation of land, privatization of industry or bankruptcies for
"Yeltsin also has been under severe pressure from uniformed military officers. In a concession, he went back on earlier hints he would name a civilian defence minister and instead appointed Gen Pavel Grachev.
Grachev has become a vocal advocate of de-
fense interests, and indicated he would slow, some aspects of military reform. He also said he might send troops to defend ethnic Russians who live outside Russia. In another bid for support from officers. Yeltsin announced he was raising military wages by 80 per cent.
A government spokesman. Alexander Ulukaycv. has tried to refute Russian press as scrtlons that the policy and personnel changes represent a major shift away from reform.
Social discontent might rise. Ulukaycv said this month, "but that Is no reason for changing course. It Is a reason for compromise, for Hex! bility In tactical changes, but not in the course as a whole."
Against these huge stakes, the recent sniping between Yeltsin and Gorbachev seems like a small town political feud. It began shortly after Gorbachev got back from Washington last month and began taking credit for the dlrs 24 billion aid package.
Yeltsin, tn so many words, warned Gorbachev not to meddle in domestic poll tics, and on June 6 someone in the Kremlin stripped the former Soviet leader of the ZIL limousine he had been using since he resigned last December
