Links Index Russian government faces many challenges OECD Observer Published on: April 28, 2000 Russia has made some progress toward the creation of a market economy in the last decade, but the record of economic performance has been disappointing. This is a key message of the OECD’s latest Economic Survey on the Russian Federation, published in March. Progress in macroeconomic stabilisation since 1995, leading to modest gains in output, living standards and financial market improvements by 1997, raised some hopes that the Russian economy had finally turned the corner. But these hopes faded with the stock market crash of 1997, the financial crisis of 1998 and further decline. Government attention has been absorbed by emergency management, rather than medium-term objectives. Hyperinflation was avoided by restrictive policies, bringing inflation to under 3% since February 1999 and stabilising the rouble. But the currency’s sharp depreciation made debt servicing extremely difficult. On the other hand, a weaker rouble and favourable export prices have helped industry to lead a recovery in the last 18 months. There is even evidence of genuine progress towards the creation of a market economy. Moreover, the recovery has alleviated pressures on the federal budget. However, some of the causes of the recovery may be only temporary. The rouble has begun to strengthen since February 1999, for instance, and this could slow the expansion. Meanwhile, some prices, such as for transport and energy, have been controlled, leading to price distortions.

84. Christian Education And The Russian Government Christian Education Supported by russian government Minister. RussianMinistry Network News, May 1996. by Jim Morgenroth. The conference http://www.episcopalian.org/rmn/jim.htm

Christian Education Supported by Russian Government Minister Russian Ministry Network News, May 1996 by Jim Morgenroth The conference on cooperation between the state and the Orthodox Church began on a freezing January Sunday morning, one of those endless liturgies which Russians jokingly say "gives gray hair to children!" After liturgy at the Uspensky Cathedral, Bill Greig, Jr., President of Gospel Light Publications, and I, were guests of Patriarch Alexy at his Kremlin residence, and were introduced to Alexandr Solzhenitzyn. Fr. Ioann Economtsev, Chair of the Department of Religious Education, introduced us around as, "Those who are helping the Church publish a Bible curriculum." The Patriarch spoke words of gratitude and encouragement to us, and I thought to myself, "I pray it can be so." Speaker after speaker at the conference labored over the issue of joining secular and Christian educationalists. In his opening remarks, Fr. Economtsev had said, "This is possible, staying within the framework of the law of separation and actually the Church is the advocate of this separation." The Patriarch highlighted the historic role of the Orthodox Church. He then stated unequivocally that "the future of our country depends on Christian Education." He went on to admonish parents, teachers, and priests to "teach the children." Alexandr Sozhenitsyn is affectionately known in Moscow these days as "The Old Man from Vermont." He had been asked to tone down his words regarding the Orthodox Church, but nevertheless managed to stir things up a bit! He launched in by saying, "We are right now in a severe crisis and we are all to blame for that. But we must look back at the past which set the scene for this crisis. The Russian Orthodox Church is also a part of it and is responsible for the great defeat of the Russian people in the 20th Century." He then asked, "Are we now ready to ask forgiveness from those who persecuted us?... The Church is."

85. Russian Government Promises Military Salaries By September By Igor Kudrik 199707-16. Catastrophic conditions in the Northern Fleet, says commander-in-chiefrussian government promises military salaries by September. http://www.spb.org.ru/bellona/ehome/russia/nfl/news/970716.htm

By Igor Kudrik Catastrophic conditions in the Northern Fleet, says commander-in-chief: Russian government promises military salaries by September In the middle of July the Russian government promised to cover all its salary debts to the army by September this year, allocating 800 million USD for this purpose. The announcement came after a parliamentary hearing on the problems within the armed forces in the beginning of July. The governmental announcement has direct bearing on the problems of the Northern Fleet, as they were described at a meeting in Murmansk in the end of June. This meeting was organised by the Murmansk county administration to deal with the the problems of the Northern Fleet and other military units on the Kola Peninsula; problems affecting more than 200,000 people. The main outcome of the Murmansk meeting was the adoption of official appeals to the President, Government and Defence Minister, prompted by the then upcoming parliamentary hearing in Moscow. The leadership of the Murmansk county administration attended the hearing. Catastrophic sosial conditions in the Northern Fleet The latest data on the economical situation in the Northern Fleet was submitted at the Murmansk meeting. It was said that the state debt to the Northern Fleet has reached some 300 million USD. The Naval Repair yards have no orders from the government; this is in particular the case for Nerpa yard, where operations have come almost to a stand-still, running at 6% of its industrial capasity.

News Russian Government Report Points Out "Threat" of Catholics and Protestants, Ignores Cossacks and Neo-Nazis (December 10, 2002) "An Ideology of Total Licentiousness and Egoism” Gazeta December 5, 2002 A sensational document has come into Gazeta 's possession, a draft report to a joint session of the Security Council, the State Council, and the Presidential Council for Working With Religious Organizations. The report is devoted to the topic of religious extremism. Under the leadership of Akhmad Kadyrov and Nationalities Minister Vladimir Zorin, 32 officials and one outside expert worked on it. The officials have listed Catholics, Protestants, sectarians, and foreigners as extremists, in other words, everyone except Orthodox believers, Buddhists, and for the time being, Jews. The 15-page text is devoted to recommendations for countering religious extremism in Russia. The very fact of the growth of registered religious associations over the past decade (up from 20 to 69) is seen as alarming. Extremism, the document says, is characteristic of "certain religious associations and is manifested in religious fanaticism...the use of religious symbols and phraseology for political and other ends." Extremists are those who conduct the "propaganda of exclusivity, of the supremacy, or inferiority of citizens according to their attitude to religion and according to what social, racial, ethnic, or linguistic group they may belong."

94. Russian Government Restructures Defence Industry russian government restructures defence industry Minatom plans tocut military enterprises By 2005, the Russian defense sector http://hjem.get2net.dk/muslumovo/tekst12.htm

Russian Government restructures defence industry: Minatom plans to cut military enterprises By 2005, the Russian defense sector will be cut to 600 or 700 enterprises from its current 1,700], Prime Minister Kirienko announced in late June. The Ministry for Atomic Energy responded by saying its defense-related business will be concentrated in enterprises located in Arzamas-16 and Chelyabinsk-70. The defense firms will be cut to 600 or 700 from the current 1,700 by the year 2005, Russian daily Russkiy Telegraph quoted Prime Minister Kirienko as saying. Kirienko added that the remaining enterprises will produce civilian products and compete for state military contracts. The measure is a part of governmental program to restructure the defense industry, which calls for spending 2,1 billion roubles ($339 million) from the 1998 federal budget. Of that amount, 632 million roubles are to be used as credit for conversion projects, 508 million roubles for financing private projects, and 1,019 billion as subsidies for converting enterprises. The mutual debts between the government and the defense sector amounting to 6 billion roubles ($967 million) would be written off as was announced earlier. The debts to defense enterprises will be cleared within one to one-and-half months, said government officials. The Ministry for Atomic Energy (Minatom) responded to the governmental plan by saying it would start reducing the number of its science centers and enterprises which were engaged in defense production and research. By 2003-2005, all the military orders would be concentrated in enterprises located in Arzamas-16 and Chelyabinsk-70. But Minatom officials denied that lay-offs are imminent, saying that 4,500 people presently working on military programs would be retained to work on civilian projects.

95. RMG: Rye, Man & Gor Securities: Viewpoint russian government still puts itself above the market (23.09.2002) The head ofthe Federal Property Fund, Vladimir Malin, gave an interview to Vedomosti http://www.rmg.ru/view/en/viewpoint393.phtml

Russian Government still puts itself above the market The head of the Federal Property Fund, Vladimir Malin, gave an interview to Vedomosti newspaper last week, in which he severely criticized that organ for a story it carried in late July about alleged Kremlin plans to regulate profit levels of Russian oil companies. "Couldn't you have waited with that publication - investors literally tore me to pieces with questions," Malin said. The official's anger was due to the presumed role of the Vedomosti article in undermining prices for a 6% stake in Lukoil, auction of which on July 31 was canceled because the Government decided that $14 per share, offered by investors, was insufficient. The newspaper story has had no sequel. Was there ever such a proposal? As with many questions in Russia (who exactly has kidnapped Sergei Kukura, who blew up hundreds of Muscovites in their beds in 1999, did Stalin kill Kirov:), this question may never be answered. At least, Malin did not accuse Vedomosti of lying. What we consider interesting is that an official at the sharp end of state interaction with capital markets should expect a fully independent newspaper to bury such hot news due to respect for state interests. If the state was really hatching such an absurd plan, it deserved to be punished by fully publicity. If Vedomosti knowingly exaggerated the story, the Government should take it to court.

The Committee on the Rights of the Child has echoed Amnesty International's long-standing concerns about the widespread practice of torture and ill-treatment of juveniles in police custody and the harsh conditions of detention for juveniles who are awaiting trial sometimes for up to five years. It is now time the government took concrete steps to implement the Committee's recommendations to ensure that all allegations of torture and ill-treatment by law enforcement officials are promptly and impartially investigated, that the perpetrators are prosecuted and punished, and that the victims are compensated. Only by taking this steps can the government ensure that this cycle of impunity will be broken.
