Abstract:
Russia’s fate rests on the success or failure of Yeltsin’s economic reforms. If Yeltsin succeeds, he has a decent chance to lead Russia toward democracy, free markets, and certain prosperity. If he fails, Russia might return to authoritarianism and perhaps expansionism. It is in America’s interest as well as Russia’s that he succeed.
