Improbable partners
Article Abstract:
Unity, a party linked to the Russian government, and the Communist party have setup an alliance. This could mean that the opposition groups favor the program of the government, while the majority supporting the government includes elements who oppose market reforms. Meanwhile, Russia appears to be having more success in its war in Chechnya, where Russian soldiers have reached central Grozny. There is still no certainty that the Russian forces will achieve a clear-cut victory in Chechnya.
